I'm going to stab microsoft in the fucking face. Why do subscriptions to everything have to renew automatically? I haven't used my xbox in months, NO I DO NOT WANT ANOTHER YEAR OF XBOX LIVE AND MY ACCOUNT OVERDRAFTED, please go die in a fire.

Because they're subscriptions... that you subscribe to.. that's kind of how the scam works.
I know it's my fault for being dumb, but I'm still convinced microsoft somehow stole my credit card information and charged my account. I remember I got some free amount of time but totally do not remember ever giving them any billing information after that, and am totally unconvinced I would have ever given them $50 for a year of something I never use. fucking jerks.

Woooooooooooot.  I have LASIK scheduled for July.  Bye bye glasses/contact lenses.  $3,500 is going to be worth the investment.

I hated the fact I had to call microsoft to cancel my subscription. Is it that hard to do what everyone else does and put it online?
errr... something like that...

That's why I always use the prepaid code cards from Best Buy or GameStop or something.

Why do I get the impression it'd be like trying to cancel an AOL subscription (impossible)?

Anyhow, I stopped at CenturyLink again. I told the lady at the desk that I know I'm outside their territory, but that I also know they have cables going underneath my driveway, and I also know that they can negotiate with Verizon for an additional fee. I explained I'm currently with HughesNet so I'd rather pay out the ass for real internet than for IPoS (should be capitalized iPOS). Her manager is going to call me on Monday, apparently. Hopefully I can at least get a direct quote of what the price would be. I may finally be getting real internet.. but somehow I doubt it.

You might be right about that, Joe.

Next year I might be making a vacation/trip to Hawaii.  I'll have to check up on the progress of your tan.
