Cable TV
at around evening time on Saturday, the 10th of May 2003 by Chad
All I have to say is that Comcast cable has the most jackass stupid, well, idiots is being kind, people on their anti-satellite commercials. They’re flat out incredible. The guy who doesn’t know how to turn a wrench because he has to keep re-pointing his antenna every few hours? Having a bunch of housewives on the screen saying that someone they don’t know will come install this antenna (like you know your cable company tech on a first name basis!) just to spread FUD. If that is customary for Comcast customers, man, I’m really glad I have DirecTV. Hell, when I hooked up the dish, it was something like 15 below freezing out, and I had it installed in about 15 minutes. But, the real clincher was when I got it running, Tina comes in, looks at the screen, and remarked that she has never seen a clearer picture! Its better than even people with the digital cable that I’ve seen. Gotta love it. Oh, and only if some of the women I dated went up and down as often as the cable internet does… UPDATE: Finally went back to satellite. And it was as wonderful as I remembered it. Much nicer picture, many more channels, and cheaper.

[...] had forgotten until yesterday just how bad the Comcast propaganda commercials are. They are so terrified of losing customers to DirecTV and Dish. With good reason [...]
