I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Good news Drew! I'll continue to send the ~ma.

I keep thinking I should cut cable, but I don't want to. I don't want to go hunting for the shows I want, I want them delivered to my DVR. The cable part of the bill is only about $68 anyway.

I really struggle with this. The satellite is wasted money and yet. I like having some random shit to watch rather than always having to actively choose something. Plus virtually everything is or could be a marathon on Amazon or Hulu, and that's not always a good option to have.

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

Woo hoo! Jobs for everyone!

I *love* not having cable, almost as much as I love not giving Cablevision that $90/month. Hopefully HBO will make good on their promise to have a cord-cutter option by the time GoT comes back so I don't have to cheat with my mom's HBOGo password.

Tonight's episode of Criminal Minds may be triggery for a lot of us, considering ita's passing.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Huh, last time I tried for just internet, it was actually more expensive than cable + internet. So right now my cable box is unplugged and I'm watching things on Hulu Plus already. Need to change that shit fast.

Thrive to spite them

I'm on some kind of bundle plan that having cable with HBO saves me money on my internet. Otherwise I wouldn't have cable.

Although it is nice when watching college football games. When the promotion ends I'll see what I can do, although everytime I call Comcast they try to get me to upgrade to Triple Play.

I think they need to move on from triple play and find some other kind of bundle, because I have not had a landline in a decade.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

I hate bundling with a fiery passion. (especially because my Internet just went up AGAIN.) Charter keeps trying to tell me "you could get this for less if you bundled!" Um, No, I'm sorry, I can do math. $60/month for something I use is not less than $90/month for one thing I use and two I do not.

Relatedly, $60/month for Internet is friggin' insane. And yet there are no other options here.
