    We had this happen last night when we were trying to put our kid down for the night on Christmas Eve. Just turned that shit right off, I’d rather do without than suffer through insurance ads in the middle of my “crackling Xmas fire” video.

    I just don’t watch tv anymore. Found ways to get all my slop ad free without paying one way or another. Next I just have to stop going outside

      YouTubeTV is raising their prices yet again in January. It’s going to be over $90 a month with taxes. When my partner originally wanted it, it was $40 a month. Now we’re paying more than we would if we just had cable for something that was supposed to be the anti-cable.

      She’s finally okay with me cancelling it. It’s a christmas miracle.
