Goodbye Sweet Internet.
Today I did the unthinkable, realizing I was paying way too much for comcast and seeing what all their new kids were getting for christmas, I did what anyone else in my position would do. I told them good bye. I packed my bags and got the fuck out. I did them for a few reasons. One being introductory rates should be so balls fucking gorgious and long time customers shouldn't be treated like shit. I wouldn't even mind average rates for everybody, but no, Jimbob's been around 6 months too long, let's jack up the prices. I saw a commercial where a classroom was coloring with a standard 12 pack of crayons and the new girl shows up and receives a supersonic crayola 5 million series with crayon erasers and a crayola tattoo needle. "Because she's new". I stood up from my chair and said.. "RIGHT FUCKING ON!!!." Thinking that Comcast would budge from their anti-Jimbob traditions I called them requesting politely for lower rates. Comcast: Hello and thank you for calling Comcast. How can I help you? Jimbob: I want my rates lowered. Comcast: OK... the best I can do is remove services and get you $7 off. Jimbob: No. Dish Network has a 39.99 deal. Comcast: We don't price match. Jimbob: Give it your best shot. Comcast: (fumbles around about a full minute then...) I can get you a $15 premium. Jimbob: $15?! That's it?! Comcast: Yep. Jimbob: C'mon... I could go to dish network for $39.99. Your introductory rates are great, give me one of those. Comcast: We couldn't stay in business if we gave everybody those prices, that's why they're introductory. Dish network is inferior (enters a sales pitch). Jimbob: OK.. nevermind just cancel all my service effective immediately. And that was that. As of now there is no TV. Soon no internet either. I am almost gone. So farewell internet, it's been a good time. If ppl out there want to send me donations. sypter@gmail.com via paypal. Just FYI.. hehehehheh

thats why i went with yahoo's dsl. they give us the intorductory rates and i talked to a manager who said that as long as i call and complain when they are up they will reinstate them. i got another couple months left, and then i get to bitch them out.
Yeah...you should get yahoo dsl. After all, how much of a nerd can you be if you don't have internet? Sweet jesus, even Netzero is only $10 a month.
