I Feel Like Chucking My TV Out Of My 6th Floor Window!!!

[Fat Man]

I'm looking at my Yahoo TV Listings and on channel 41 The Science Fiction Channel. According to the listings, the Outer Limits was suppose to be on at 12:00 AM midnight.

But what do you suppose they have on instead???

They are showing WCG Ultimate Gamer "Sink Or Swim" the relationship between two gamers takes and ugly turn; contestants compete in an unexpected challenge for NBA Live 09.

Sometimes they even show wrestling on The Science Fiction Channel!

Just what in the fucking flying Hell is going on here?!?

Listen up you monkey-boys and listen tight!!!

There are already plenty of sports channels on Cable TV! You don't need to hog up the other channels! Keep your slimy monkey-paws off of my Science Fiction Channel!

I wanted to watch The Outer Limits DAMN IT!!!

I don't want to watch a bunch of monkey-boys prancing around in their baggy shorts putting a ball through a hoop!

That is for drooling imbecilic moronic retards!!!

Next, the monkey-boys will be taking over The History Channel, TLC The Learning Channel, The National Geographic Channel, and The Discovery Channel.

When that happens, I'm going to unsubscribe to Time Warner Cable TV and save $60 dollars per month and chuck my fucking TV out of my 6th floor apartment window!

Then I'm going to order all of my favorite movies on DVD disks and just watch them on my computer with my flat screen LCD monitor.

FUCK IT!!!

That is CRAZY! You should write to the cable company and tell them to get their act together. I don't know if it would make a difference but it's worth a try. I just canceled my newspaper after several years of subscribing. Because of the economy, they laid off several columnists and combined several sections of the paper. Before there were separate sections for local news, city news, classifieds, sports, etc. But to save money they combined everything into two sections.

Before, the first thing I did was throw the sports section in the trash but now the classifieds and the comics are bound up with sports in the same section. So I can't throw it away. AND for some reason, they started peppering the whole damn paper (especially the front page) with sports highlights! I tolerated it for as long as I could. I wrote a couple of times but nothing changed so finally I canceled it.

It seemed like they were determined to make the paper as unpopular as possible. Well, they succeeded.

Well, I don't read Newspapers anymore.

I subscribe to all the well known Newspapers on line. Saves paper that way, and I don't have a bunch of fish wrappers, puppy trainers, or birdcage liners laying about and cluttering my home.

It doesn't do any good complaining to Time Warner.

I have always complained about how the commercials come in so fucking loud, especially sports commercials while I can barely hear the programs.

Spike TV is the most notorious for that sort of thing.

For example: a program sounds like this.

Romulan ship has just de-cloaked Captain.

Then comes a commercial advertising a sports event.

FOOTBALL! BLAH BLAH BLAH! BASEBALL! BLAH BLAH BLAH! BASKETBALL! BLAH BLAH BLAH! HOCKEY! BLAH BLAH BLAH! WRESTLING! BLAH BLAH BLAH! NASCAR! BLAH BLAH BLAH!

I have to turn the volume up to the max to listen to a program, then a commercial comes in real loud BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM and I have to hit the mute button so as not to disturb anybody else in my apartment complex.

And for some reason, the sports commercials and the commercials for weight-loss and diet products come in the loudest.

And my favorite Star Trek episodes I can just barely hear even at maximum volume!

I have complained about this several times and they gave me a phone number for Spike TV and it is not a toll free number! It's their job to fix the problem and not mine.

That's what I'm paying for. DAMN IT!!!

People in sports have no manners at all!

They are rude, loud, and obnoxious, and 99% percent of them aren't even toilet trained or house broken!

But, Fat Man, the difference in volume is simply a reflection of Spike TV's priorities; and as far as the commercials for weight loss and dietary products are concerned, these are aimed at all the sports fans who stuffed themselves with too many fattening (and perhaps not as nutritious) foods while they were watching their favorite teams play ball on TV.

Newspapers aren't popular anymore because of the internet, not because of a large sports section.

PUT A SOCK IN IT!!!

In my humble opinion, the quickly declining newspaper circulation is inversely proportional to the amount of sports material included.

The more sports articles, the less interest, the less subscriptions. It's as simple as that. Ladies and Gentlemen, we are witnesing a revolution in popular culture. Interest in sports is waning as people come to their senses. There IS hope.

You will find nothing factual to support this. In fact, this couldn't be further from the truth. Keep dreaming though.

You will also find nothing factual to support that 99 percent of sports fans aren't annoying, self-righteous, pious, obnoxious and a general nuisance.

[Polite24]

No, but will you also find nothing factual to support that 99 percent of sports fans are those things.

OH! PUT A SOCK IT IT!!!

All I know is that you sports bores and monkey-boys are taking over more and more channels on Time Warner Cable TV!

KEEP YOUR SLIMY MONKEY-PAWS OFF OF MY SCIENCE FICTION CHANNEL!

And my History Channel, and my TLC Learning Channel, and my National Geographic Channel, and my Discovery Channel!

Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to put some monkey-boy's head through the glass on my picture tube, while it's still turned on!!!

I'd sure hate to see you ruin a perfectly good TV that way!

Hell! What good is my TV when more and more channels are being taken over by the sports bores and monkey-boys?

At least when the big blues sparks are flying, and monkey-boy screams out his last breath, it would have provided some entertainment value.

When the day comes, when there is nothing but sports on TV on all the channels, that will be the day when my TV will be a worthless piece of junk that serves no purpose anymore.

If I try to sell it to a pawn shop, I'll probably only get about $10 dollars for it even though it's only a year old and I paid $150 dollars for the damn thing! That's because it's not one of those big flat screen TVs with a LCD screen.

Also, most people won't be interested in buying TVs anymore when there will be noting but sports on all the channels.

Some monkey-boy might buy me a Jumble Jack and a cup of coffee in exchange for it.

That's the best I can hope for!

Irrelevant. I never implied that statistic except as a joke, on the few instances I've mocked you. And yes, that's all it was. Mocking. It's sad you obviously never got it.
Yet you say we should grow thicker skin...

I'm still waiting for your answer as to why you are here. What purpose this website serves for you.
