Did the electric company read the meter this time, sumi (and have they been estimating in the past)?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Have you been running the AC full-blast for the last month?
My guess is Sparky1's idea is right. Or maybe the meter reader read it wrong.
Our rates in Chicago just went up 30% or so.
ION, Dino complains that it's last shutdown was "unexpected." That's all it will tell me.

OMG! I just got my electric bill and it is more than seven times the amount that it has been!

Of course, since we're now living in The Future, you can just walk down to the corner drugstore and pick up some plutonium.

Just be careful carrying it home. Evidently, there's something the matter with the Earth's gravitational pull.

Well, my landlord switched me to electric heat in December. I phoned and got on "budget billing" right away and I've been paying that amount - just getting reminders from my bank and not looking at an actual bill.
So, it's my fault and they couldn't help me out.

Trust my rage
So, I work in Puerto Rico and sometimes, since English isn't everyone's first language, things come out funny.
For example, my Puerto Rican co-worker says to our African American boss this morning, "You're looking very African AMerican today."
I almost swallowed my tongue trying not to laugh. Thankfully, my boss took it well.
