and what those stupid channel packages.. I dont want the golf channel. the god channel. the home shopping network.. why the fuck should I have to pay for them? Thats like going to the store for milk and being told you have to buy a fucking tomato if you want to walk out the door with your gallon of milk.
The cable company has to charge us for the actual cable and service. Luckily with digital cable in my area now we get to pick specific channels. but you pay more in the long run though so it's not much better. We pay $2.50 per channel now.

it's all a rip off
