I promised myself I would write something significant this week. Then Kooky Kyle forgot to pay the the cable bill and the swines turned off my internet. After a round about phone conversation with a very nice sounding operator named Mindy I found myself paying way too much money to keep my “high speed” connection going. Here is a quick play by play on how that conversation went. Remember while reading this that I AM AN ASSHOLE.
Me: I went to log onto my internet today and surprisingly it said I needed to call customer service.
Mindy: Let me check your account. As it turns out you owe us $84 USD in unpaid bills.
Me: Really, that is surprising cause I know I sent a check in last month.
Mindy: Well sir it looks like you only paid $75 of the $89 you owed us and then there was no payment for December so we turned you off.
Me: Well I guess that is one way to get my attention. So Mindy why do you think I only paid $75. Is it because you think I am stupid and did not know how to read my bill correctly?
Mindy: No sir I am not calling you stupid. Maybe you just misunderstood.
Me: MISUNDERSTOOD!!! Wait are you calling me a retard who cannot read a bill correctly (this is most likely true). I feel completely insulted right now. It is a good thing you caught me on a good day or I might have hung up the phone and proceeded to slit my wrists in my bath tub. Do you really want my suicide on your head Mindy.
Mindy: Sir, no I did not insinuate you should kill yourself at all.
Me: Thats right you didn’t, I did. You know I am actually a rather smart man. It baffles me that you think I am dumb.
Mindy: Ummm, sorry sir, uh. So your internet will be back on anywhere from eight to forty eight hours.
Me: I think I need to talk your superior cause I feel rather slighted here.
Mindy: I will transfer you…..Click
The bitch hung up on me and I was too lazy to call back. over $100 later I got my internet back. Hooray for monopolies. I thought my trust busting friend Roosevelt took care of such bullshit. I guess not. That is the problem with these utility companies they can do whatever they want cause they know they got you by the balls. Just for that I have a bit of fun with their customer service representatives. I am sure Mindy got a good laugh or cry out of our little conversation together. I hope she did not decide to slit her wrists.
As I was saying I wanted to write about something significant, but after all that hassle I guess I am just back to writing about “money, hoes and rims again”. Tell me where that is from and who says it in the comments for 1 extra UCB point! Actually that is an oxymoron since I have no money, no hoes and my car does not have rims :(. I guess that means I am just writing absolute gibberish as usual, but you are reading it.
I posted some quality shit in the December ’11 edition of the surflog. There are five new action packed sessions if you want some thing to read. This week I am going to write two UCB’s. At the moment I am not married to any topics put down so if you have something I would post it. The power ten is also still up for grabs. This month’s winner may come down to the power of ten. Besides that I have some fun comical stuff to post, a new recipe, and maybe even another short story. Don’t give up on me yet. If anything blame Kooky, but then again maybe just blame Adrienne since we here in Lisanti Land have decided that all my problems and those of my friends in the last six months can be tied back to her in some way or another. I know real adult. Then again life is all about passing the buck.
kanye west breathe in breathe out “money hoes and rims again”
oh yeah Johnny boy getting the extra point!
Just reminding you that I submitted a pretty badass power of ten last week if you want to use it.
Oh I know, just have to give others a chance too
You just want to give the Andy Irons to my Kelly Slater (kooky kyle) a chance to catch up to me. PS, if possible i’d like to come down and visit with Fifi at some point before her break ends. Call me or send me a FB message and let me know if that could happen for a weekend or whatever.
Come whenever, just let me know. The more the merrier in Lisanti Land
