One Comcast Worker's Cry For Help

Yiiiiiiiikes. Even Dr. Melfi is like "I'm going to recommend a different therapist." Sometimes things just get too real. (Via PassiveAggressiveNotes, and thanks for the tip, Stephen.)

I will forever rue the day I switched from Comcast to AT&T. I shout my regrets to the heavens at least once a week.
How many Fearnet movie descriptions do I have to miss (and miss sending in as Videogum tips, because what other purpose do they even serve?!?!??) before the wizard comes out, tells me I've learned my lesson and passed the test, and restores my former cable provider?

I contemplated leaving comquack... Now I'm rushing home to check out episode 308 of Rock of Love with Brett Michaels.

Maybe you should have written her love notes in some of your descriptions from time to time, eh? But then again, she probably has Time Warner. The whore!

Pop quiz, hotshot. You only have one upvote per post. Who do you spend it on? Who?!?!?


Also, congrats! Not a gif; just a jpg!


Finally, you should consider unlinking your name from your twitter account so the rest of us can go back to enjoy some of your earlier gifs from the week. I'm sure we can all find you on twitter any time.

No need. If you click on the little TV icon after my name you can access my user profile and thus my recent comments.

It wasn't that bad of a comment. I upvoted it! I'm not sure why the hate for your previous comment.

Thanks. I know you know we cool. I really had no idea whatsoever about the TV icon thing. Thanks for the insight! Probably just a little (well-deserved) hate for not getting how the internet works. To all my haterz, some people are just a little slower, ok, you guys? : (

You haven't even seen what he said about tonight's V:

It's Only The Beginning, Episode 4 | Season 1, Running Time: 1h 1min Erica works with newly-formed allies to uncover a biological threat they suspect the Visitors have been plotting. Like my ex -- the whore.

Despite what you'd believe, anthropologists have found data for this kind of stuff dating way back to the stone age.
