Free TV

Postby Bug » Tue Dec 01, 2009 1:12 pm

Disconnected Comcast today. Feels so good.

Using new rooftop Yagi antenna for digital broadcast TV in HD. So much better than the crappy plan I was on. And the house looks like a spaceship now.

save=17.34 /mo (Limited Basic service) == 208.08/yr

Dumped MCI long D. Got AT&t basic rate long D for $0.00/mo+$0.12/min which I'll never use since all the long calls go over Google Voice or cell phone.

save=15.95/mo == 191.4/yr

Total=399.48/year

Simplify, simplify, simplify.

This would totally explain why you find xtranormal vids hilarious.

Your sooooo thirsty for visual entertainment that you do the equivalent of drinking water from your car's radiator to stay alive in the desert of video-lessness you impose upon yourself. Or something.
