Skybird needs a new sig

Skybird · 03-13-08, 12:55 PM

Finally - FINALLY - an internet company that managed to get me a new DSL connection (not without including to cause an erratic installation that delayed the final activation for another three days...). This was a months-long difficult birth. Bye-bye 56K-intermezzo, welcome back to the world of 3000-DSL again.

In between I even had a company that managed to send me a confirmation of my order, sent me the same formula threet imes to sign it - and then sent me a letter to confirm to me that they could not carry out my order indeed - due to my order not being existent. - If that makes sense.

Think I am magnetic to bad experiences with internet providers - I have a long history for that now.

The more I think about it the more I believe I do not really need a new sig considering what the old - and current - one is saying.

No cable internet in Deutschland?

How about.....

Technology sucks, lets get back to basics and live in a cave.

Sure there is. That is what we call DSL over here.

No offence meant, yet I'm getting optic 10/10 on next week. I do feel pity for you, in a good way that is.

Since now it is working, you must not!

A new page I call up in my browser gets loaded in one second - I do not need any more speed, really.

You'd be better off sticking with the old enigma machines....at least everyone would still be able to understand your posts

Are you sure you exist?

What a terrible thing to ask!

If he's not sure, how does he even know you asked that question? And if he is sure, it might mean he's crazy, and you've just pushed him over the edge. Twenty people dead, and it's your fault! How can I...I mean he, ever really be sure? What kind of monster are you, tormenting me...I mean him, that way?

Just for that, I'm burning down the first bookstore I see that carries your book...I mean, I'll burn a copy of your book...I mean...well, I'm not sure what I mean...no, I didn't mean that.

Besides, I understand Sky's posts, so what does that make me...no, wait, don't answer that; I don't want to know.

One mind, one thought, one Borg!

No more existentialism at the moment, please: I just finished re-reading the Tatar Steppe by Buzzati a couple of days ago, so for the time being I feel finished off enough.
