  5. "I'm told..." some insider.

    I checked with my brother's sister's husband's daughter's aunt's half-sister and she said she heard her husband's tennis partner heard third hand from his stylist's mail carrier that their Fiber might have blinked for a minute.

    IT'S AN EXCLUSIVE PEOPLE

  6. Back on but I'm pissed.

  7. All told, it was down for about 45 minutes but at the absolute worst time for the company. Almost as pissed as when they cut my trees down.

  8. Ah the great taxpayer subsidized Google Fiber.

    The magnificent and futuristic wires on telephone poles.

  9. Find another hobby white people. It's not the only thing happening in KC. Surely, you can get off your arses for a moment and do something else with your wasted existence.

  11. Did a black person cause the outage?

  12. My brother's sister's uncle's husband's mom's daughter's aunt's half-sister talked to his milkman and she said NIGGERS CHEWED THROUGH THE WIRES OF THE FOX TRUCK.

  15. Was out well over an hour for some. Not restored till 8:45PM

    Google screws everything up soon or later till it's basically worthless. When the 10 year contract is up they'll probably sell the system off to some other company.

  16. So that Kansas City "insider" mentioned above... it's just some knucklehead who emailed Tony crying like a little girl.

  17. I erupted in anger.

    WHEN NIGGERS CHEWED THROUGH THE WIRES

    No I didn't.

  18. Damn Mexican contractors

    ReplyDelete
  19. It wasn't Google Fiber. It was Fox.

    At least that's what the rest of the internet says ...

    ReplyDelete
  20. I also blame the Mexicans.

    ReplyDelete
  21. These Fox announcers are just awful. The Fox outage was a nice break as the MLB International feed announcers were much better.

    ReplyDelete
  22. All my neighbors were talking about it, and got calls from friends and family asking if they could watch my twc'd tv (no google fiber allowed here, they're up twc's butt at my apartment).

    The announcers are also mentioning the outage every few minutes.

    I'd imagine TKC got even more calls on it, given my experience.

    ReplyDelete
  23. my service also went out. I had never looked at the comments section before. Wow, was I shocked at what I read. You people should be ashamed of yourself. This, I hope was a technical error but it will come out tomorrow. The one thing I can safely say is it isn't a race or gender issue. Don't feed into the divide and make Kansas City like ferguson mo. Grow up and be adults.

    God bless the noobs.

  25. Truth 1203. But this is the warehouse for the miserable.

    I like checking in when they have to eat shit and have Paco somehow rationalize his anger through:

    The ball park food
    The Parking
    The cost of tickets

  26. I blame the toy train. Toot toot relevent clunkydunkydingalingdong!

  27. You're up early this morning, trolley boy.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I missed you, Onomatopoeia boy, and your ceaseless irrelevant retard noises and obsessive non-sequiturs.

    ReplyDelete
  29. 9:45: You're using terms trolley boy never encountered in western Kansas, and heaven knows he's not interested in book-larnin'. He'll be spending all morning looking up the words you wrote so he can respond. You have to dumb it down for him.

    Remember he thinks the streetcar is already at break even and the extension won the popular vote "where it counts."

    If we were still running things we'd get right on it and send a truck out next week, between Thursday and Saturday, between 8:00 and 4:30 and we never miss an appointment

  31. "I'm sure a lot of people are thinking about going back to Time Warner right now."

    So who told you this, Tony? Obviously not anyone who remembers the multiple outages from Time-Warner in both internet and TV service, which is why they dumped Time-Warner in the first place.

    Or those momentary maddening screen freezes when you are watching live sports that T-W was famous for.

    But here's a tip in case it happens again. Fox 4 is an over the air channel. Get yourself a cheap little antenna, unhook your cable or dish, and enjoy the game.

    Assuming, of course, you got a digital tuner -- which nearly every TV set sold in the last 15 years has.
