I'm so very, very, sorry, but I just can't commit to you and am cancelling you from my life.
It's not you, it's me. I am impatient, have a short attention span, and...
Actually...
...it is you.
You are boring, with too many lame commercials and mid-season breaks, not to mention the importance you place on boring sports that I don't care about. Interrupting the start of my favorite TV show just so a bunch of overpaid idiots on steroids can finish throwing a tiny ball around is totally not cool.
It is also not cool when you are making me happy, but then interrupt that happiness for some totally idiotic breaking news update about some idiotic individual that got shot idiotically. Honestly chances are really, really good I don't give a flying crap about any of it. You interrupted my HAPPY. And given generally that there is not enough HAPPY to go around in the world today, I tend to zealously protect what HAPPY I have. You never interrupt my HAPPY to let me know good news and increase my HAPPY, which makes it all the worse.
As for cancelling my favorite TV show mid-season because it's not the instant-uber-mega-hit you wanted... that is so not cool that it is below absolute zero. Yes, I'm mostly looking at you, FOX.
Finally, I hate that you never work as advertised little annoying box that I paid oodles of hard-earned cash for, and I constantly have to phone (likely) India or some small largely unknown island nation only God knows where on this Earth to figure out how to make you function properly again. I have spent more time talking to individuals in these locations in the past year than I have to my Mother, which is very, very sad. I need someone reliable, Satellite TV, so have decided to go with Rabbit Ears.
In short Satellite TV, it would never work between you and me. I wish you well.
With fondness,
Me
Don't go Rabbit Ears Christina. Every TV station in canada is going digital before Aug 31 of this year and a couple already have. Rabbit ears won't pick these stations up and you'd miss out on their HD! I looked up Coat Hanger Antenna on youtube and built my own antenna and it works awesome. It is only in my living room right now and I pick up CityTV in HD! It is really cool. I will install my antenna outside up high in the spring and then it should pick them all up in Edmonton. It really works and the cost to build it was under 10 bucks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWQhlmJTMzw
ReplyDeleteI should mention that I also pick up the other stations, but they aren't as clean or in HD. CityTV tower is line-of-sight from our house so it comes in easy and they happen to have switched to HD digital already.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments, John! We haven't gotten around to checking out what we can and can't get yet, but we'll keep your suggestions in mind!
