There are two meanings:
the place of origin of the mexica people, also known as the aztecs. somewhere far north of present day mexico city, though nobody knows exactly where. different places claim to be the home of the original aztlan, but experts have found strong evidence that it was in the area now known as the state of Utah.
During the civil rights movement, chicano rights activists began refferring to the U.S. land that once belonged to mexico as aztlan, this being more of a figurative meaning than a literal one. often when someone speaks of aztlan they are speaking of the southwestern united states as a common place where their mexican ancestors once lived, not literally meaning that the aztecs/mexica occupied the entire area, though there is no proof of whether or not they did actually occupy the entire area at one time.

Get the aztlan mug.Anything having to do with the incredibly unreliable AOL program that causes you frustration and makes you want to punch someone in the face for having to put up with it. There are many situations involving AOL that are AOLame including:
1)When something on AOL screws up it's AOLame.
2)The amount of memory AOL uses while running, slowing your computer down significantly is AOLame.
3)When AOL crashes, that's AOLame.
4)When you are in a quiet setting, and you sign onto your AOL email and that guy says YOU'VE GOT MAIL! and everyone looks at you, that's AOLame.
5)When someone on AOL TOS you and your account gets blocked permanently without even being able to explain anything to an AOL person, that's definitely AOLame.
The list goes on and on with the AOL program.
The word AOLame derives from AOL AIM, the instant messaging program AOL uses. You combine AOLAIM, and you change it to mean Lame AOL, or AOLame.
