Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'm not sure what the apple TV is for, but it is nifty

World domination, probably, but it sounds fabulous.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, I still hate my new cable box. I just got, for the second time in a couple of weeks, a message on the TV screen saying, "Cable card failure, please remove and reinsert cable card to continue." So I did, which involves taking out a couple of screws, and was considering calling the cable company to check on it, when I figured I'd google first, and found this: [link] Seriously, Time Warner? You fucking suck.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The TWC guy who installed my cable card shorted two out the first time he tried it out. These are supposed to be end-user manageable. What's going to happen when they're inserted directly into TVs?

Hate Time Warner.

I just took a carload of stuff to Goodwill. Noah was especially distraught, apparently, by giving stuff away and caterwauled the whole time. I almost handed him over too.

Can I just go back to bed now and start over again later?

Yes. Tell Noah I said so, too.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Jesse, you need IO digital cable. Then you can watch a lot of channels, whenever you're able.

I got to make my coworker sing that last night, organically! Turns out, she has a friend whose husband has made a ton of money writing jingles, and our other friend who doesn't have a tv was like, "They still have jingles??"
