12:01AM: "I'm tellin' ya, I've had it hooked up before and I didn't need no stupid cable modem! I just screwed the coax directly in to the back of my computer and away I went! Yes, it was when I was with Comcast about 7 years ago! I know what I'm doing! Watch! I'll show you!"

(Customer puts down the phone and proceedes with 15 minutes of rustling around, swearing at cables, crashing and banging)

12:16PM "Where the hell does that cable screw in to the back of my computer? Did you guys flip a switch and make it go away?"

Just spent 20 minutes explaing to a customer what EVERY SINGLE BUTTON on the Remote Control does.

"This one that says 'Menu'... what does that do?"

That brings up the Menu.

"Oh! Okaaaaaaay... And this one that says 'Last Channel'... what does that do?"

That takes you to the last channel you were on.

"Oh! Okaaaaaaay... And this one that says 'Help'... what does that do?"

That takes you to the Help Menu.

"Oh! Okaaaaaaay... And this one that says 'Volume Plus'... what does that do?"

That one would turn the volume up.

"Oh! Okaaaaaaay... And this one that says 'Volume minus'... what do- "

IT TURNS THE FRIGGIN' VOLUME DOWN!!!! THE PLUS SIGN MEANS MORE!!! TE MINUS SIGN MEANS LESS! SAME DEAL FOR THE CHANNEL BUTTONS!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAUUUGH!!!!!

I want to watch all my Superman movies this weekend, in order.

Superman is on channel 557 right now.

This movie NEVER fails to make me all choked up and emotional, but in a good way :)
