Yahoo! and AOL – a bad, bad idea

It’s 4am and I’ve already made several posts tonight. Maybe I’m just overtired, but Masnick has got me roaring with laughter:

Late Sunday a new rumor arose: Yahoo! might try to keep Microsoft away by merging with AOL. That seems sort of like trying to keep a wild animal from eating you by covering yourself with feces. It might make awful sense for about a second, but it’s just a bad, bad idea.

As Thom says in the comments, “never has covering yourself with feces been funnier than when it’s being compared to buying AOL.”
