Holy crap -- I just called to try and get a cheaper cable package, cancelling the phone I had through them, and I ended up with many fewer services for like $25 less a month. That is so fucking crazy.
This must be what going mad feels like.

Every time I think of doing this, the savings wind up being so minuscule it's not worth the hassle of canceling all the shit I'm not using. Because apparently even though my bill is through the roof, I'm taking advantage of all these bulk savings deals that I lose as soon as I try to cancel something.

Sorry to disappear on you, -t. Molasses chews are those spice-filled molasses cookies, the brown ones covered in sugar. Trying out a new cookie recipe. My crazy son doesn't like chocolate chip cookies--go figure!
He was apologetic about what happened and acknowledged they have a problem at that store and also a bad rep in the community for long lines and mistakes.
Nice that he was apologetic, but it turns out apologies are not enough, esp when you keep making the same mistakes!

Yep. It's ridiculous! Such a fucking racket.

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
I have the worst healthcare in the West. An hour on hold to make an appointment for hospitalization. They can see me next Monday. Can I get a WTF?
