me - monkeying around on the web
So the other day I'm looking for free mp3's to download, yes, I said free.. what? are the feds going to come crashing through the door or something?
Anyway I usually go to playlist.com but I did a Google search and came across this site that is listed as having free mp3 downloads right? So I click that link - you know I want my free mp3's dammit! Heeeell yeah. Shoot.
So anyway these bastards (I won't mention their name but it rhymes with Fault Net dot com... ok it's Altnet.com it's already in the title of this post) and they want like $20/mo, you can download unlimited music files, but I don't believe in paying for singles unless I'm buying an entire cd or a box set. Screw that noise. If it ain't free I don' wants it. Don't make me come ovah there bitch... Anyway I try to leave the site and a little window pops up, even though I have pop-up blocker in firefox that 'lil bastard got through! and a representative named Dana starts trying to chat with me. Ok, she's probably a bot. Annoying. So I decided to have a little fun of my own... and here's how that played out;
Dana Says: HEY DON’T GO! In addition to receiving Free music Downloads for 7 Days, we will even give you unlimited access to our 500,000 file ringtone catalogue as well! CLICK HERE now!

(another long pause)
You: Did I say something wrong? Damn, I think my prostate is swelling again. Helloooo?

Picking on a bot-whatever gets you through the night, bro! When I'm on the phone with a voice-recognition thing, I like to say "Yes...bitch" just for the hell of it. And "live agent...bitch" to get transferred.
Come to find out, companies can tape your entire interaction, including the foul shit you say to the FedEx bot. No fair, I say. We should be able to get out our passive-aggression on non-living entities, right?
@kathcom - Meh, it was just an observation I made and thought it would be funny if someone hypothetically did go there.
The pop-up was a bit annoying at first but it didn't really make me upset. Sometimes those voice recognition programs at major companies can be very annoying when you have to repeat yourself over and over again. I find myself cursing out the bots sometimes, let them record that I don't really care. These overgrown monopolized companies need to change their policies on customer service.
It just shows that companies don't really care about customer interaction anymore. They just want to save a buck so they can have more profits and take our hard earned money and buy mansions, caviar, champagne and bitches with it.
That's not ethical or moral... Unless they share. =)
The best place to get free stuff.... from what I hear.... is piratebay.org
You don't have to be a member. But you will want to have BitComet or something like it. PB has it all. Music, software, movies. Just be sure to check out the comments for whatever you're interested. And, of course, scan it first before permanently putting iton your disc or hard drive. The comments will tell you a lot, though.
I feel a fart ready to pop out of my ass. Bye.
We need to kill all bots and computers in some type of end of the world war like a movie!
Today its free mp3's tomorrow its our freedom, kill them NOW!
@Static--I wasn't trying to rag on you--sorry it came out that way.
One thing that always pisses me off is when the automated voice says something like, "Please wait while I look that up for you"--there is no "I"!! There's no artificial intelligence that can speak to me yet, just the machinations of companies too cheap to have real people doing customer service.
Come to think of it, though, live customer service people usually suck, too-- either stupid or with a bad attitude or both. Or with a good attitude but in India.People suck.
@kathcom - don't be silly, not at all my dear. I was simply reflecting on the moment I was inspired to write this article. Which overall was a mixture of indifference, confusion, and... constipation.. much to my chagrin the snafu in question never gave rise to my ire but instead gave me the option to MOCK IT WITHOUT MERCY!
BWAHAHAHAHA! *coughs
Ok, I'm done laughing about it. For now. =P
@kelly - piratebay.org Ye say, arr?
Why that sounds like an ironically pithy place for a pirate t' hang out at an' dig for treaaye!
Dost thou hast any booty Ye'd like t' declare?! Aye? Aye.
I do not care for t' spywares however, so me thinks I best be taking me yellowed arse yonder over the high seas of the intarweb to playlist.com instead matey.
But thanks anyway. YARRRRR!
Shit!
I'm doing that again? [link]
Curses! ARR! =\
