i've yet to "disrupt the space time continuum" with my "higher speed" cable internet. in fact, i constantly have to call tech support to complain of slow loading webpages. i know what i'm doing when it comes to computers and networking as that's my line of work, so i just call them up to give them a piece of my mind. they do attempt to help me but i've already done the things that they want me to do to troubleshoot. i just like to blow off steam and think i'm helping my situation by telling them how crappy their service is. i know all they're going to do is tell me they'll send a support tech out to my place only during the hours that i work or maybe find a time that i'm off but is 4 days from when i called. by then, everything will be working fine.

...sorry to any cox tech support employees that may be reading this. i go into rages when my internet isn't performing to my standards. :P
