Why do ISP’s still think 72 hours is a reasonable amount of time for them to do their effing job and fix your connection? Imagine if the plumber asked you to wait *3 days* until you could take a shower again!

Big thanks to Grail-seeker!

      Tried to see in the disclaimer if this was a parody site. Instead I found this:

      1. Dem legalities tho
        I can’t stop laughing at this for some sad reason. Is their a website for if your house was built on Native American burial grounds? I’m pretty sure mine will be on that list 😛

  1. The ET Remake
    Reminds me of the by now dusty conspiracy theory that as part of the more recent backstage attempts to make ET’s a new al Queda waiting in the wings as a new “terror” scarecrow, Spielberg was leaned on to sequelize ET in that vein, and he finally balked.

    1. Oooouch…
      Et a terrorist?? If anything, the interstellar botanist might be suspect of trading with illegal drugs. Maybe sunflowers seeds are all the rage in the Andromedan party scene! 😛

      1. ET remake . . . . a potential horror that never took place
        Let’s be brutally honest. Except for a very small, rare handful of movies, sequels, prequels, and remakes totally suck.

        Bravo to Spielberg for protecting the integrity of the original film.

        The drugs are hidden in the Reeses XD

      3. I was referring to the idea
        I was referring to the idea that very advanced “black” technology could be used to masquerade as “alien” while being used to terrorize the populace. Films like “Independence Day” really started the now prevailing meme of ET’s as sinister as opposed to the earlier, benevolent Spiebergian portrayals in movies like “ET” and Close Encounters of the Third Kind.” Spielberg was being “tasked” to break with his earlier sentiment, and he apparently balked.

  2. Patience

    My aunt recently had a pipe burst under her house and the plumber made her wait a week until he could rent out a big enough sump pump to get the water out. She had no water for a week and had to stay with us. Three days would have sufficed…

  3. bounty
    The irony will come when this kid grows up and designs some of the best video games that those bounty hunters will buy. If I was with Nintendo I would be asking him for tips on the next fighting game. But for now:

    Good, good, let the hatred flow through you…
