    The wife almost stepped on a Copperhead last weekend. It was late, and she was walking back to the house from the shop. She ran inside to tell me. I grabbed a flashlight and went hunting, but couldn't find him. Now when its dark and I'm coming back up to the house, every branch in the backyard looks like a snake. That's the third one this year.

    You need to remember where you place them so you don't off yourself instead of her.

    Haven’t read the whole thread but fuck oatmeal raisin cookies.  Think you’re getting a real cookie and then it turns out it’s that shit.

    I see that I will have to kill you, in a surly manner.  Prepare to die.

      It's usually the same schmuck who has been standing in front of a giant menu for 10 minutes and has no idea what he wants to order when he gets to the front of the line.

     

    And the first utterance out if his pie hole is, ”uh......”

    Styrofoam.  Fucking hate styrofoam.  Unpacking shit packed in styrofoam and no matter how you go about it, those little clingy fucking white balls get all over and stick to every damn thing in the house and are a bitch to clean up.  Fuck styrofoam.

    Excepting the 20-oz. styro coffee cup

    I used to write my own paychecks. Overly zealous bank teller thought it was suspicious for some reason that the signature on the front side of the check matched the signature on the back side of the check.  Teller goes to the back and calls the business phone number on the check and asks to speak to the manager but I'm not there because I'm at the bank, but the employee gives them my cell number.  So I'm in the lobby of the bank while the teller calls my cell phone from the back to ask me if the check was legit.   Fucking retard.   

    Haha.  I thought I was the only one.

    It can’t be worse than suddenlink. Last fall my cable kept freezing. I did the normal reboot for s few days and that didn’t fix it. It was happening at the in-laws a couple blocks over as well. I call and the automated service said there is a known problem with your internet, is that why you’re calling? “No”. Ok then. Why are you calling? Cable. “Ok. Due to high call volume would you like to remain on the line or have someone call you back? To remain on the line press 1. To leave a number and have someone call you back press 2.” Hit 1 “goodbye”

    Called back. Same deal. Hit 2. “Goodbye”

    I was so pissed I must have done that 5 times thinking something would be different.

    Finally I went to the website and fired off a pissed off email. Got some bullshit reply 2 days later to call a number. I called and some girl answered. I explained the situation and the email. She had no clue what I was talking about. Looked at my account. Nothing. I told her “fine, I’ll just continue to be a very unhappy customer”
    her response “ok! Bye!”

    So this morning my cable and internet services are down (Comcast/Xfinity/the devil), so I go to work and report this and I'm on a chat with Raja from customer service. I'm told they have run diagnostics and checked their service log and there are no service interruptions in my area.
    My reply is that this is why I am reporting that I have no service, now there is a report. And I inform them the my neighbors (at least the 3 that I saw this morning) also have no service, including the neighbor 4 houses down the block who had a tree struck by lightning last night - which I tell customer service that I'm told that can cause some issues, or so I've been told.
    The want me to turn my router and cable boxes off/on to restart them, which I did this morning and nothing was rebooted and that now that I'm at work I can't really do that.
    Seems like it might take awhile to get a real person out to look at the problem.

    tl:dr - customer service, with people reading from a script, from half-way around the globe sucks.

    (sorry if this should be in lulz - or already is in there - but that board is blocked by the work firewall)

    Yes, Mr. Wally.  OK, sir, Mr. Wally.  OK, Mr. Wally.  Now, Mr. Wally, can you unplug your box, Mr. Wally?  Thank you, Mr. Wally.  Now, Mr. Wally, can I get the last 4 of your social, Mr. Wally?  Mr. Wally, now I need you to wait 10 seconds Mr. Wally and then plug you box back in, Mr. Wally.  Mr. Wally do you have a signal yet, Mr. Wally?

  8. Using the phrase “piece of shit” to describe someone; especially a person with whom you dislike or disagree.  This is rampant in the CR.  

    Nothing screams internet tough guy / anonymous coward more than using POS. It is really repugnant.

    Growing up my parents would have bacon wrapped filet's for special occasions and they would serve us kids bacon wrapped hamburgers.  When we finally got old enough to ask "Why mine not look like yours?"   they held out for another couple of years before we got the upgrade.  

    Ha. In their late 40’s, my ma and her twin sister were told by their ma that all those times they were eating liver “because it’s good for you,” their mom was having a nice ribeye because she hated liver.   Parents can be crafty.
