A couple of years ago, AT&T introduced U-verse into my neighborhood. They sent a door-to-door salesman (they still HAVE those in the 21st century?!) around the neighborhood to try to sell people on the service. The salesman approached my husband. It went something like this:
Salesman (S): Hi, I represent AT&T and we're bring U-verse to your neighborhood! You and your family will be able to watch four different TV shows at the same time!
Husband (DH): Do you provide internet?
S: Of course we do! But think about it - four different shows at the same time! You can watch the game, your wife can watch her soaps, and your kids can watch Spongebob Squarepants or Dora the Explorer or Sesame Street or ...
DH: I don't watch sports and my wife doesn't watch soaps. We watch sci-fi, and we watch the same programs. And we don't have children. Do you provide internet?
S: Of course!
DH: How fast is your circuit?
S: ..... Did I mention you can watch four different TV shows at the same time?
DH: How. Fast. Exactly. Is. Your. Circuit.
S: ..... Did I mention you can watch four different TV shows at the same time?
DH: Get off my property. We're sticking with Cablevision.
