AOL tactic
To get your point across using childish, misleading and insufferable methods. Trying to convince someone (who by using such tactics one can imagine to be extremely gullible) using an idiotic and obviously deceptive approach. Although mentioned in name, the usage of this term is not limited to AOL alone.
Almost all corporations use AOL tactics to sell their product or service. All are insults to your intelligence.

- AOL's "keywords" displayed in movie trailers at the theater. (Ex: A Lord of the Rings trailer is shown, and the keyword search tip is "Lord of the Rings")
And of course who could forget the random "You're our 99872384234th visitor, you've won eleventy billion dollars!"

AOL Kids
The stereotypes of the Internet. They are generally recognized by their horrible grammar and spelling, annoying and disruptive behavior, and huge egos. They can also be recognized by typing in alternating caps(as seen in my example)for entire conversations for no apparent reason. Though they may not even use AOL, this is what the rest of society labels them as.
