Does "Twice" count as an epidemic?

Second time I've ever gotten a call like this, I *think* I posetd about it last time it happened...

ME: I'm sorry sir but I can't justify sending a technician out to your home to fix a non-Comcast problem. Your Cable Box is working fine, the problem is with your television itself. You need to contact the maker of your television. Now if it had been a problem with the cable box itself, or with the wiring...

HIM: Hang on... (*rustle, rustle* CRASH! BANG! *shake-a-shake-a-shake* THUD! *rustle rustle rustle*) Okay, NOW there's something wrong with my Cable Box! Would you send a technician, please?

do you ever look at your writing utensils and think about stabbing them in your eyes?

Doctor says I'm not allowed to have utensils any more, not after "The Incident" :(

On the upside, you now have the all-you-can-eat Valium buffet ;-)

I don't get it... Even if you DO send a technician to fix the box, the TV will still be broken. Who has money to throw away on temper tantrums like that?

I KNOW! I think his thinking was along the lines of TV=CABLE, CABLE=COMCAST, THEREFORE TV=COMCAST.

Are you able to note in his account that he broke the box? He should have to pay for a new one. What an ass.

Makes perfect sense to me but then again I'm not allowed near sharp objects either.

This is the shit that never ends...it just goes on and on my friend! Some a$$hole started busting things, I'm really not sure why. And he'll continue breaking things until the day they die...
