I use a cable modem…and sometimes my internet connection shuts down…I get all irritable and break out in cold sweats…I was wondering If i’m alone with this condition?
You’re not alone! 
Jay, Jay, Jay, what are we going to do with you. Survey-style questions belong in MPSIMS.

I get it now…i’m the butt of joke here…
When I got home yesterday I went to turn the computer on and there was no computer! I had sent it out the day before for repairs. I started looking around me wondering what I was going to do. Now, I wonder if it will get easier or harder over the next nine days while it is gone…

No, Jay, not the butt of a joke. But you did start 11 topics in GQ, of which 9 got moved. You were the recipient of your very own Pit thread as a result of that. You promised to shape up.
Those three things, plus the fact that I feel entitled to have a little bit of fun before engaging in the tedious and annoying process of moving a thread, inspired me to write the little missive above.
No joke, and no hard feelings. Just learn where the threads go.
