While all might seem well, now that Chris has phone service again, there's a whole new aspect that hasn't been touched on...the money all of this is costing.
Once I had phone service again, I ordered up Verizon DSL, cause there was no way in hell Earthlink was gonna get any more of my money...
last time, on Chris vs. the Evil Internet Corporation...
Chris was trying to save a buck and signed up for some new service that would save him big dollars. Unfortunately the provider Earthlink wasn't able to hook it up. In fact, they royally screwed things up to the point that Chris lost...
I tried my hand at blogging years ago on MySpace. Recently I discovered that those blogs were recoverable. Often I am commented to about my writing style. I thought I'd share with you all what that style is like when I am good and ticked off.
What follows is a blog from 2006, when my then DSL...
As promised, here's part 2.
THIEVES AND CON ARTISTS
This is one of my favorite genres. Die Hard is a heist movie in disguise. The Italian Job is a heist movie more interested in getting away with the money than setting up the actual robbery. It’s not enough to set out to steal money; it’s to...
How dare they! Don't they realize the PS4 is a completely different platform? You can't just give that away for free. Simply outrageous.
Said no one ever.
I agree about Jurassic Park being a total copy. Plus it's Data East, blech.
I actually played it a few months back after having not played it in years. Forgot how noisy the audio package is. Playing on a properly tuned table was nice, but my overall impression still has me being a snob towards it.
I've never understood this behavior. If you truly hate something, leave and give it no attention. If you love it so much that you hate what's wrong, offer solutions. I've jumped on issues I've had with TPA, but usually follow up with a suggested solution. And we specifically dealt with someone...
Here's the clip from Strange Brew that used to send me and my buddy into fits of laughter...
...taken out of context, not terribly funny. Within the movie though, it became our favorite joke.
I almost put Bachelor Party on the list, as I find that to be one of the best 'sex comedies' of the...
I'm almost positive I've seen The Hebrew Hammer, but not 100% sure. Jewish humor I tend to be a bit 'meh' on, probably because I'm goyim. See what I did there? I know for a fact I saw The Hammer, which is Adam Carolla's boxer movie.
Speaking of non PC humor...in Better Off Dead there's this...
It’s essay time. Fear not, I'm breaking it up into 7 installments spread out over a few weeks time. Depending on how the discussion goes here, it might spill over into the podcast. So please, discuss! (hint, hint)
I was reading an article in Entertainment Weekly where movies were being...
I think it comes down to the FIFA license. I don't believe any player names are mentioned in the game (someone please correct me if I'm wrong) and it's not like you'd have to pay for the mention of a country. The dog mascot would have to be addressed too, but that might even be covered under...
Never did see a flash sale for Zen. Oh well, maybe next time. I keep hoping they'll do another round with the Humble Bundle so I can get the last batch of tables I need for even less.
I would rather a person leave on their own volition than be banned. Some people have dared the mods to ban them, which turns out to be an easy request to fill. If you don't want to be here, why stay? Just don't log on anymore, that simple. That way, when the situation has cooled down a bit, you...
Here's a question, what happens to your level status if you don't enter the tourney at all?
I've been completely unavailable with time to enter this go around. I probably will have an evening before it ends to squeeze in, but it'll be half a$$ed. So do I do more harm by doing that as opposed to...
Once again, the Mod Team has had to ban user Mark Wyda from these forums. Usually a person gets banned and nothing more is said. This time, I felt a point should be made.
See, these forums are alive and well because of you, the forum users. Without your comments and the creation of threads...
It might have been a good seller, but it wasn't a good earner. We had one in the arcade I worked in and it earned a fraction of what Whirlwind and Rollergames were taking in.
