Everyone who is worried about the Comcast Time Warner Cable merger can relax. I'm still getting a solid 28.8K on my modem.

When Comcast eats up Time-Warner, is the new company just going to be called Monopoly?

Wow, a Comcast/Time Warner merger would create a combined customer service department of well over ten employees.

Comcast's $44 billionTime Warner bid "certain to attract antitrust scrutiny." Pope certain to be Catholic, etc. etc. http://t.co/csmsQnaV70

My advice to Comcast is to just buy basic Time Warner cable. Don't get up sold for one of the more expensive packages.

Pretty stoked that Comcast is buying Time Warner Cable b/c I absolutely despise reliable products and acceptable levels of customer service.

"Hey, let's buy Time Warner because it will help us deliver dependable cable to our customers, who we serve for a fair price."

Comcast has agreed to buy Time Warner Cable in a bid to create a massive vortex and concentration of shitty customer service.

Dude, @Comcast, I totally know how it feels to pay $44 billion for Time Warner Cable http://t.co/a0ZKvDXdo4

I worry that by acquiring TimeWarner, Comcast is at risk of losing its indie cred.
— DavePell@threads (@davepell) February 13, 2014
Comcast plans to buy Time Warner Cable. They tried to do it 6 months ago but they've been on hold for a representative

I'm late to the TWC/Comcast party, so all I have to say, and I mean this in the most offensive way possible, is Jesus fucking Christ.

I wake up to find Comcast bought TWC, and Taylor Swift now has short hair. Good bye cruel world, im going back to bed.

Comcast buying Time Warner is like one black hole of sucky customer service subsuming a second black hole of suck. Serious mass of suck.

I hope Comcast is getting a free month of HBO or Showtime thrown in for their $45 billion. #TWC

The Time Warner / Comcast merger is great for consumers. There's one less terrible corporation to hate.
