I was wondering how reliable they are. I know when it rains here my sattelite tv goes out. Also how fast are they compared to DSL or cable modems? Reason I'm asking is because they don't offer DSL or Cable modem service in my neighborhood, but they do across the street, I'll never understand that shit.

They are a crock of shit and a waste of money, they only have downloading capabilities, no uploading unless you have the money to afford a transmitter, which means you need to also pay for a landline for uploading. So basically you pay for the Downloading connection which is about 30-70, and need a phone line which is about 15 more. Plus they only have about 150kb/s top speed for downloading.

Beats my 56k :( But it sounds like i'll be paying 100 a month for unlimited service. Think I am better of sticking with my basic peice of shit.

Just call the company and ask them about that shit. I haven't had any experience with satellite broadband.

I had pizza today, actually. Yesterday I had a bunch of fastfood *well Denny's I count as fastfood since it's cheap and crap basically* and the day before that was similar. hell, I haven't eaten a cracker in over 3 months, and when I did, it was to eat with chili. So kiss my ass, k thx. But I also go to the gym everyday soooo /shrug. Get over it, you don't affect me.

Do you also have big muscles? Drive a corvette? Have chicks at your house every night partying and running around naked? Getting blow jobs while you sit in your computer chair playing EQ and drinking your 40s with a blunt in the other hand? Because I think I heard of you.

Actually, I should of reworded that, it was more of an attempt to flame Sid because thats all he talks about. That's why I sad 40 in one hand and blunt in the other and naked chicks running around your house. :P But, I guess you didn't catch that.

I took it as an attempt to lob me into the same 'boat' as Sid. I apologize for my misunderstanding.

I like Sid, but Sid sits in his own boat :P

Yes, a raft made from palm leaves and old used tires floating slowly north into Florida and US waters... slowly sinking due to the weight of 30+ people...

:eek: Don't get satalite, dude. 56K ownz it half the time heh, as soon as a cloud is visible you get less than 56k and it is very very unreliable. I had one at work and I live in Florida where the sun always shines and it still sucked. You outta look into DSL if cable is not an option, otherwise I would use dial up.

I live in FL too, but I think it rains more than the sun comes out, specially in summer~

Actually Gray is his Uncle Nexex, so it's not like he wason his dick, it's that he enstilled alot of faith in him being direct family in real life and out of game. So he has a reason to be "on his dick" if you think about it. Plus Innuendo is a good guy, don't diss him. ;)

Keep calling me bro and I start calling you sis. ;)
Magnolia Fan was a geeky young kid who talked a LOT of tough crap about Jay and Bob on the internet. Then at the end of the movie they go to his house and beat the snot outta him. hehe
