I was waiting in line at best buy to talk to the geek squad dude, there was a guy in line ahead of me with some computer problems, he pulls his PC and keyboard out of the garbage bag he had been carrying them in and placed them on the counter, i notice something moving on the keyboard, then at closer glace i notice a bunch of cute little baby cockroaches crawling in and out between the keys, you guys think the cockroaches had anything to do with his problems or no?

I had to call Microsoft because my cousin's brand new Xbox 360 wasn't working. It was fucking terrible. Comcast is incredibly shitty, too.

I hope not. I don't envy that Geek Squad guy. I used to think they had a pretty chill job before this story lol.

You think you got it bad? Comcast doesn't acknowledge the existence of my hometown, and I'm forced to pay roughly $80/mo. For absolutely horrible satellite internet service, it has download caps, speed varies depending on the weather/time of day, etc. And it costs three times as much as broadband to boot.

That sucks. I call every so often and threaten to cancel for sweet deals so I guess I'm kind of a shit customer, too. I think they are catching on, though. Last time they were just like "Okay."

A friend of mine's phone/answering machine broke and she asked me to take it apart and see what happened to it. (she thought her kids had poured something on it and lied to her)
She brought it over to my house and I took the screws out and popped it apart. About 300 tiny cockroaches were swarming all over the inside of it.

I threw it in my yard and poured gas on it and burned it as quick as I could. Still haven't seen a cockroach around my house yet. Nasty little bitches.
