Dealing with the Dark Side (of at&t)

Posted by davelip in whateves on December 12th, 2007 @ 5:28 pm

I’ve had AT&T cell phone service for 7 years now. ATT, then Cingular, now “the new AT&T.” New as in, new ways to screw you over. Their service has gotten shittier and shittier, and I have turned more and more into “angry old man” when I call them with some jacked up charge. Needless to say, I was overjoyed when they ALSO took over SBC telephone service & Internet/DSL, which I also have.
I won’t bore everyone with details, but needless to say, I finally had it out with ATT’s poopfest, and decided to put my foot down. What happened? Well I saved $20 a month on my DSL service and over $100 on a cell phone bill after I was repeatedly told by AT&T they couldn’t help me. (For those of you who are new to the dark side with Iphones, be prepared.) When the time comes, here’s what you can do to save yourself some money and hassle of dealing with knitwit operators at AT&T.

File a complaint online with the California Public Utilities Commission. It literally takes about 5 mins. In 3-4 weeks of filing, you’ll get a call from an ATT rep. kissing your butt asking what they can do to help. It’s that simple!

First off - the Spead Racer movie site is shameful, so remember to judge the movie by its website.

I guess the Wachowski brothers came up with a new “Speed Racer Technology”, are you ready for this? - It was shot entirely on green screen, yup 100% green screen, even the race car is fake.

I thought this “new technology” was done in the movie 300, Star Wars trilogy, Sin City and Matrix 2-20, oh, and the Wachowski Trans-sister is 100% green screen.

Lindsay Lohan Raped you!

A friend of mine at the Obey HQ sent this over to me, if your thinking about going you should try to go Friday. Most taggers, wannabe rebels and “fashion” dudes either A) Don’t get up before 11am. B) Are still in High School at this time. or C) Are working stiffs.

I have gone the last few sales and usually have found something that I have added to my wardrobe. Also, if you want your house to match your clothes then head over to The Marry Karnowsky Gallery for the Imperfect Union show. Once there you will find new work by Shepard Fairey.
