Got Fiber?

Over the summer AT&T was laying fiber in my neighborhood. Of course I was mildly optimistic, but in some ways I’d kind of gotten used to my 4G modem, and was hoping for higher data allowances though my wireless provider.

So I got the mailer. 300Mbps fiber connection for $50/month with a Terabyte datacap and free installation. Uhhh… Yeah… What is it I’m getting right now? Oh yeah… Close to 100Mbps at $50/month, but only 24 Gigabytes. Hmmm… Let me think about this…

Of course the rate goes up after a year, but they do have lower priced options, and I can always go back to wireless if I have to…

So of course I signed up. I’m getting it installed this week.

Oh, and one more thing: FUCK YOU, SPECTRUM.

George isn’t emailing anyone right now because he had a minor heart attack. From what I hear he’s going to be OK, but no one sent any jokes, and that left me scrounging. If you’d like to help out, the submission page is at your disposal. I also accept jokes via flush2x@gmail.com. Thoughts and prayers. Get well soon, George.

Pax,
