Hmmm

Why didn't they call it "Up-Yours" With SBC's track record
I think it would be a much better and more accurate name.

Re: Hmmm

I was going with the similar approach...

They'll charge you per second used and call it "Per-Verse"

or maybe it will deliver so many popups and spam as part of the monthly costs, they'll call it "Ad-Verse?"

Or keep customers waiting so long they call it "U-Wish?"

I'm reaching, I know....I think you've topped me.....

Re: Hmmm

... When customers call tech support, it's always "U-Verse's THEM"

... And when it doesn't work, customers will cry "U suck".

Yeah, I'm reaching too. Ugh, SBC, couldn't you have come up with a better name? Blech!
