AOL?!?!?!

Yeah, it's still around, for some reason.
More specifically, it's a reference to how --after AOL started
offering access to the Usenet feed to its users-- newsgroups were
inundated with hundreds of new users whose primary contribution to
discussions were single-line responses. These were seen as extremely
poor netiquette, as they didn't add any worthwhile content to the
thread nor did they properly trim unnecessary lines. These posts were
often referred to as "me too" posts (because that was too often the
extent of the reply) and were seen as indicative of being new to the
community.

TL;DR: I was making a joke about an issue so old that even people who
were here back in the day don't recognize it ;-)
Well, I joined in like 2023 so I definitely wouldn't remember that :D
Also, I do know a couple people who use AOL emails.
