Everyone Who Works For Comcast Cable Should Die

[Flying Headbutt]

And I mean EV-ERY-ONE!

Even during the Passover only the first born was taken. But I want none of them spared. It's bad form to wish cancer on anyone. No one wants cancer. No one wants their worst enemy to have cancer. I want the top execs at Comcast Cable to get the worst kind of cancer. I want them to want to commit suicide but be too weak to actually be able to follow through with it.

I want a SEPTA bus to hit them, only they'd be unable to lapse into even a medically induced coma, so they must suffer the pain of an entire broken body for weeks until they die. Perhaps the rain I'm getting here could be ice up there, and they could slip and fall and hurt themselves. Or maybe the top people at Comcast Cable can be found conniving with Osama Bin Landen, and all of them can be taken out at the same time.

I don't care how it happens. But they should definitely all die.

I want to know what happened to put you in such a murderous mood.

FH, if you suddenly see the image of Satan on Channel 67, you'll know they heard you...

Sounds like someone just got his bill and discovered exactly how much all those pay-per-view porn movies can add up.

While Comcast employees deserve no specific reason for this fate, you wouldn't happen to have one, would ya?

Upper management is unspeakable.

But the craptastic level of service from the frontline people makes you think The Soprano's Chris is in charge of the field service and phonebank branches.

Our Comcast cable and Internet service never has given us any problem, and the people we've dealt with during power outages have been helpful.

Good to hear. Given their racketeer-level rates and their business model straight out of the Five Families playbook, they OUGHT to be.

But too often . . .

I have the Comcast Triple Play.

While I don't wish death on anyone it was and is: Biggest. Mistake. Ever.

I don't know if this is what caused Headbutt's post, but here, there's a bit of an uproar because Comcast wants to move all the local access/government channels into the 900 range.

That move would force people who want them to get digital cable. They give the digital receiver free for a year, but then it's $4/month after that.


This might even be illegal, since local access/government channels are supposed to be broadcast on regular basic.

 

[expendable]

I don't see how local access/government channels will get me to buy a digital box (I have two actually). Unless you really want to see Wayne's World or the Sword of Joshua Independent Fundamental Full Gospel Assembly Hour.

But isn't regular basic going the way of the dodo after this year?

In other words, doesn't everyone have to upgrade to digital cable pretty soon?

 

[dooley_womack1]

I agree with Ides...gotta be the PPV porn.

I like Comcast at the moment ... for $4 a month, I get the NFL Network via the sports tier package, so I'll be able to watch the Patriots-Giants on my other day off Saturday.

 

[Sleeper]

Comcast blows. The nonsense they pulled last summer where they took away NFL Network and put it on the bull**** sports tier pissed me off to no end.

I was a bitter, bitter man when I realized I couldn't install DIRECTV in my new place.

 

[beefncheddar]

Maybe this is opening up what should be its own thread, and maybe I'm the only one who feels this way, but why the **** should the NFL Network be on basic cable?

What, exactly, does it offer ... outside of six live NFL games? A grand total of two of which were worth a **** this year? Oh, and a bowl game or two that nobody outside of the teams playing in them will give two ****s about.

 

[beefncheddar]

And, FWIW, I just added the Comcast sports tier. Will run me 99 cents a month for two months and then $5 a month after that.

Answer: It shouldn't. But when you get the greedheads who run the cable companies going against the moneygrubbers who run the Big ten NFL, we're all loosers.

I don't know how they did it where you live, but Comcast included NFL Network on digital cable for a few years here. It was not on basic cable. Then last summer, the jackals decided to move NFL Network to the sports tier and charge us extra for something that was previously included in our gigantic monthly bill.

So F them. I can get four MTV channels on the base digital package, but no NFL Network? Tell me that makes sense.

 

[BigSleeper]

I have Comcast for internet and phone, and other than the price, I haven't had an issue with them. As for TV, I can't lobby for Dish Network enough.
