Who Gives A Shit: What's Your Car Service Jam?

The first week Benjamin and I started FIPS I was all: "we should do a head-to-head roundup of all the local car services!" And he was all "FUCK YEAH!."

And then we never did anything. Though it all kinda works out fine cause our buds over at Brokelyn, with all their fancy shmancy investigative jouralism-ing-n-shit, cracked the lid wide open on the dark underbelly of Park Slope car services.

Squatter's Camp on Fifth Ave?

From FIPS reader Diana:

"I have lived in the Slope for a decade and have noticed a few, uh, rather perpetually low-end, down on their luck storefronts on 5th Avenue (particularly between 4th and 9th street). But this one seriously takes the cake, and has profoundly perplexed me (its located between 6th and 7th St.'s, I think).  This, apparently, ungentrifiable patch of Park Slope decrepitude seems like something out of Grapes of Wrath, rather than trendy 5th Avenue."

Gotta say, we're in total agreement with Di: that place is fucking disgusting (though Kook should probs get his ass down there pronto, as that's a nice piece of graffiti real estate ass). If I wanted to look at shit like this, I'd just move to Williamsburg.

There are two ways to completely fuck up your computer:

  1. Bring it Tea Lounge on 7th Ave. for some screenplay-writing hipster d-bag to spill decaf chai late on it.
  2. Bring it to the Mac Support Store.

Since the 7th Ave. Tea Lounge ain’t there anymore, Mac Support Store is the official, Apple authorized Park Slope spot for getting your Mac raped, snake-bitten, tarred and feathered.

TIME WARNER SUCKS: I WILL CUT A BITCH

Ok, its all fun-n-games, bitches...that is until my MOTHERFUCKING CABLE GOES OUT.

Yeah, our recent Thanksgiving weekend six day internet outage was not funny. Like not funny at all. But at least I have an iphone and the Teat Lounge as a backup option. But now you Time Warner stupid bitchdicks are crossing a line you really don't wanna be fucking with: me-n-my TV.

Your one saving grace is that this happened after last night's new Glee episode aired. Had you slut-tards fucked that one up I'd be protesting in the streets this morn with all of the OTHER PEOPLE ON THE PLANET WHO HATE YOUR ASSES MORE THAN HITLER.

I've checked both TV's, I've reset my Tivo...and we got nothing.

Listen to me now and listen to me hard, Time Warner: N. Park Slope, cable outage, fix that shit now. I do not want to call you up and speak to your angry, stupid, ill informed customer service "reps." I do not want to make an appointment for Feb 09ers (sorry, that's our first opening!), in order to have some pot-smoking in his van all day, doesn't know shit about coaxial cables dimwit come over and make up shit about why my TV ain't workin. I don't want to read this morn on Gothamist, that a little motherfucking rain from last night took down your entire Northeastern grid. I don't want to hear it.

I don't care what you do...just get this shit fixed and get it fixed FAST.

In the meantime, I'll leave you with a few more of my fave quotes from (surprise, surprise!) some more of your unhappy customers:

"Time Warner cable is SATAN!!!!"
--robnyc

"The most unreal thing comes AFTER the many hours of run-around on the phone when the Time Warner service guy actually comes to your house. Holy shit. These are the most incompetent, uneducated, ill-prepared and surly service people in all of New York City. Time Warner Cable may as well have picked up a homeless man on the street, gave him a uniform, name-tag and truck and sent him over to my place to fix the cable."
--Helicopter Dad

"Time Warner is such a piece of shit I cancelled it. I'd rather have no cable/internet than deal with them."
--Issy

And our personal fave...

"As a rule for life I don't go into a Time Warner store on Friday..depending on the time of day I might not be let out of jail till Monday morning."
--Patrice C

TIME WARNER SUX: 'I live in the slope & my internet is running slower than the (fingers crossed) Guns-N-Roses Reunion tour'

The above is just one of the insanely entertaining comments left on our Time Warner Sucks a Dick post from yesterday. I'm definitely not a psychic, but I sure as hell predicted that none of the Time Warner comments would be positive, and needless to say, you bitches did NOT disappoint.

True, after 5 days of lies, excuses, and disinterest, our internet service *has* been restored (as of yesterday), however, we will not let that deter us in our quest to bring to light all of the ongoing retardedness and poor customer service that Time Warner keeps pumping out to its universally unhappy, disloyal customer base.

Rest assured Time Warner: we still hate the shit out of you!

Here's a nice little roundup of some other haterade I was able to pull up with a simple "I hate Time Warner" google search:

Oh, but wait: it wouldn't be fair to post all this negative shit without doing a fair and balanced "I love Time Warner" google search, right??

HAAAA!

This is pretty much the only thing I could come up with: Gee, I love Time Warner Cable--a sarcastic rant about why this person HATES Time Warner cable.

Are you out there FIOS?? I'm waiting...
