Rage Against The Machine

Whoever invented DirecTV and high definition television can kiss my sweet behind.

Consumer Alert:
If you buy a hi-def TV, you need to shell out another $11/month to DirecTV on top of the 8 gazillion you're already paying.

You have to get a really big, ugly new dish for outside of your house.

You also need to buy new receivers.

You also need to buy assorted new cables and cords. And if you want to watch DVDs in hi-def, you need to buy new DVD players, too.

Then the nice little DirecTV men will come to your house and seek to install all of this new equipment.

But they won't be able to. Because there are various problems with the multiple pieces of exorbitantly expensive equipment you were forced to purchase.

And if and when they do get the system to work, you will have absolutely no idea how to turn it on or off.

Personally I had absolutely no problem with the definition I was living with before--but there's no turning back now. I'm in hell, even if everything looks really crisp and clear from here.

No no, my dear. Hell is watching the View next to the super high unreachable cupcake table. (Heaven, on the other hand, involves milk shake pools and lesbian clouds.)

Of course this is all secondhand information I got from last week's episode of Scrubs, but regardless, I'm pretty sure there's no HDTV in Hell.
