My cable bill has been around $220/month for the past several months, perhaps years.

I got so damn sick and tired of paying for it. My internet is $49.00/month for up to 50MBPS with COX.

I discovered DirectTV NOW and was very impressed with their $50.00/month line up. I don't watch TV all day but I thought that this would be a great way to save a few bucks. $100.00/month for Cable and Internet? Perfect!

I have never had problems streaming shite with Cox on my Roku. It has always streamed everything great.

For the $50.00/month Live Streaming Package from DirectTV NOW... Here's the lineup - Not too shabby for $50.00/month

I tested it out on my Roku and Firestick (in other rooms) and at first it was fricking awesome. I LOVED it and was so excited to finally be able to Cut the Cord. Then, after about 3 hours into it, the buffering began. I called Cocks and they said everything looked strong on my internet signal.

I rebooted Roku and tried again and BOOM, God Damn Buffering again. I have never had issues ever streaming on Roku.

I am so pissed off by now that I left and went up to Publix. I got back about 30 minutes later (by the way, I LOVE living across the street from Publix. It's like from here and there and I can walk there) but anyways, I put all of my groceries up, turned on the oven to pre heat some bad as chicken I was about to make and I tried again..

The fricking DirectTV Now app won't even fricking load. I rebooted Roku again... NOTHING.

I run into my office and check my computers... BOOM. Internet up and running. I ran a speed test on my office computer - 56MBPS

I go back to the living room and made sure that my Roku was 100% updated. It was. I don't have a Roku Stick, I have a Roku little (i don't know what the frick it is called but it is suppose to be the latest and greatest from Roku)

After making sure everything was up to date with Roku, I tried opening DirectTV NOW app... decided to watch a channel and the damn thing is unwatchable.

This is bullshite. Cox is Cock Blocking Me from Cutting the Cord.

Went to lunch with some friends. I had a 12 oz Beer, 16 oz Draft Beer and one other 16 oz draft beer.

I decided to go home on the back way instead of the main road and PO pulled me over because my back blinker light was not working and I turned right. Yes, I am an idiot, I knew my blinker light was out because last week it started to make the fast clicking noise.

Anyways, I stayed in County from 2pm and got out at 1:30 this morning.

Please don't tell me to GFMS or whatever. I am simply posting this to warn people that even if you go out for a simple drink or two... Just be careful guys.

My life is about to be turned upside down. fricking sucks!

fricking Rookie Barney Fife Cop

Unbelievable Rally in Nashville then he zoomed over to do a Tucker Carlson sit down interview. UNBELIEVABLE!

Is he Superman? How can he be in two places so fast?

Hate him or love him. That's a true leader. He went down there because nobody cared or was covering the flood. Because of him, people are finally concerned and talking about it. Our Church sent 4 truckloads of food, aide, etc and was able to raise over $50,000 to send to Louisiana (yes, I attend a very large Church)

I honestly had no idea that the flood was as bad as it until it started getting mentioned after the Trump visit.

To me, it is still summer, I am busy with things and not paying much attention, but Trump was the one who opened my eyes about how horrible the situation is there.

God bless everyone in the great state of Louisiana and I pray for your communities every single day.

The Saints lost to a very mediocre and shitty choke QB today. According to LSU Saints fans here on Tigerdroppings, Matty Ice sucks and the Falcons are overrated

Just had Zapp Chips last night for the first time ever... They have to be the GOAT Potato Chip

I have been to maybe 75-100 college football games in my lifetime. The ONLY time I have ever left early was because we were getting our teeth kicked in.

I do not understand why "fans" leave early when their team is dominating. It's not exciting watching your team dominate and pad their stats?

It's the most bizarre thing I have ever seen in sports.

Spend all day tailgating and spending money, etc... then leave at halftime.

It's just weird.

Very pleased with what I saw. Even though it was a shitty team, I was pleased to see that we were still trying to score before halftime.

Lane Kiffin is a damn fine hire by CNS.

LOVED the part how kicking a field goal is embarrassing.

We have so many weapons. Both QB's looked great - Blake has the edge

This is going to be one hell of a season.

SO and I were looking at our old High School yearbook... Yes, we are HS Sweethearts.

Graduated in 1994

Everybody just looks so much cooler and put together than today's junk.

I look at kids today and just want to bitchslap tem.. they are all punks and skinny and pussy looking.

I just had Orkin here a few weeks ago and they could not find anything. Sprayed the entire condo.

Every morning I wake up and by my Coffee maker there are hundreds of these little frickers all over my goddamn coffee maker.

I threw the coffee maker out and bought another one and by god, I woke up this morning to go to work and make a cup of coffee in my new Keurig amd those little fricks are back

I sprayed the living shite out of that area with raid Ant Killer..

I come home from work and those little fricks are back on my coffeee maker

I just don't get it. I live on the 12th floor. How do these fcking things find me? Why do they only pick on me?

I have talked to my neighbors about it and they do not have this problem.

I don't know what teh frick to do
