I read a bunch of the comments in the newspaper about the new flu. Now , I expected the crazy m racist, political , and stupid. It does make me wonder how bad you have to be for the people at sfgate to take your comment off.
I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

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 have complimentary dialup. It's a bitch to get the right number to call (I had to call 4 different ones) but at least I have some semblance of internets.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
"Complimentary dialup" almost sounds like a contradiction in terms.

Not a contradiction. If it is a free call, and they don't charge for using it, the it is indeed "complimentary" - i.e. free, though slow.

It's either that or no internet. So.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hooray for the internets in Your House, Sara!!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The internet is a big part of feeling in the right place, even if it is dialup.
I have a sudden and strong craving for oatmeal cookies. Too lazy to bake, and too cheap to buy, though. That'll larn me.
