Kind of Pissed

[Relic]

Just had Direct TV come over so that I can get a much lower tv bill, it WOULd have been perfect in price too.. PERFECT
But of course the friggin trees are blocking the line of site to the sattelite so I will soon have 0 tv at all.
Cant afford it anymore...

FUCK!

Netflix and Hulu streaming are the future anyway!

I thought I had writers block, no lyrics and no beats,
but really I just had cable.

It's always the issue. Satellite has great features but that's if you have a great line of sight so I stick to cable. Sucks though, you'll have to get your Sex In The City off the internet now.

 

[Relic]

LOL @ all of you ..

I do alot of netflix, but cable is getting outrageous.

I was pretty heart sunk , the fucking trees are the cities so Im pretty dang sure they wont cut em for me lol.

Show 13 is bout to be done though.

i just went to the cable company and cut off another set of channels... shaved off $12.00... i gonna miss certain channels, but fuck it, and fuck them! they think bcuz they own the Knicks (Cablevision) that theyre gonna have me pay for Carmelo's salary???!!! u might get a few bucks, but ur not gonna drain my dry!!

besides that, the internet has so many ways, and so many sites to watch shit it just doesnt add up to have premium cable anymore... i just got Netflix, and when u combine that with youtube, internet streaming and all the file sharing, wtf do i need premium for? not to mention, Magic Jack Plus and Nettalk for the phones.. they got me for one thing right now... the price to be connected online.

I've never been a big fan of cable/satellite/TV. With an unlimited bandwidth internet connection I have everything I need on that. The cable companies charge way too much. Basic cable here with a few little extras will end up costing about $50 and you get next to nothing, plus 1/2 the channels are french, but that's a whole other story.

 

[Relic]

lol @ french!

yeh I think we gottem to come down about 30 bux. all I care about is the net really.

I've got a bunch of cable channels, HD package, about 10 HBO's, 10 Showtimes, Encore, and 2 TMC's plus Netflix. My bill runs about $130/mo. (including phone and internet...) but I hardly watch any TV...my daughter luvs being up under me so 95% of the time even though she has basic cable in her room, my TV is always on Disney. I don't really mind though.

I've had to make it clear to her and my wife that Sundays and Monday Nights are for football only.

I feel you guys though, times are tough, gas is high, food is high and I don't see anything getting any better. I might just follow your footsteps soon.

[Relic]

Hell I cant get all that in Charlotte ! lol
What did you tell them you just got back from Iraq?? ! lol


See we never consolidated the phone with them, cuz if the cable goes out, how am I supposed to call? ha that question always perplexes them... Thats why I keep the cell I guess.

 

[dacalion]

The community where I live pays for basic cable and basic internet out of our yearly dues. Then we pay for anything extra.

 

[Relic]

Ohhhhh.... Makes sense..
Sounds communist!!! Im gonna have to report this!

 

[slik da relic]

lol... its crazy how i got a similar premium deal at my job, since we all put in around $20 for the whole year, and im cuttin service at home, bcuz im payin too much.
