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

So you're saying not "In conclusion, hookers and blow!" then?

They want me to call back if I sell the Tivo to someone else and let them know, which makes me a little suspicious it's some kind of pyramid scheme/CIA spy ring/mafia hit man thing.

When I got a new tivo, and called to cancel the subscription on the old one, they got all in my business about what was going to happen to the old one. I finally had to get shirty with the woman.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I canceled mine recently without any of that. Now I kind of feel like George Costanza with the carpet cleaners.

Yeah, instead of getting shirty, I lied to her ("Sure, I'll call you back and give this Reference Number!"). Like I lied about moving out of the country. I am okay with lying in situations like these, although I draw the line at some things, like when mr. flea used to tell the newspaper-selling telemarketers he was illiterate.

I suppose in theory that's to prevent someone from stealing your TiVo, deactivating your service, and then reactivating it themselves (or the people they sold it to). But...sounds like a PITA.

I didn't have any problem either, brenda. We're obviously just better people.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So you're saying not "In conclusion, hookers and blow!" then?

Nah, because then I'm locked into the corporate-approved hookers & blow. Better to just have the money and buy my own on the open market.

Oh, Gud. No more bad news for you, damn it.

Castle is the show almost everyone I know in fandom enjoys, yet is not actively fannish about. So I can see it being voted in brackets where you're trying to eliminate the competition for your primary fandom.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I went and cheered on some runners. Crossing Boylston Street was kind of a mistake, since I had to go really far out of the way around the finish line to get home (I guess I could have backtracked, but I hate backtracking). Onm the flip side, I needed to go to CVS, and that side is where it is. In short, if you like for people to cheer for you, put your name on the shirt you're wearing for the marathon.
