Somewhere between "pretty" and "horribly"

I will start on the page where they ask me to list all of the channels available through my cable tv package. 

Like hell I'm doing that for 5 Washingtons.

This is what the Mrs and I are determining.  By their letter, they fancy us as the "average family representing your area".  We'll see about that.

You're not scoring any points that way.

Hey I was a Nielsen's family TV rater back in like 2002 and shit.  Fun stuff, but then it got tedious.

I don't have the patience for it. 

Las ttime I did one I just left it with one tv on cartoon network, the other on food channel and the other on cable porn and figured I covered everyone's bases!!!

Inform them that you were not even aware that your television had an "ON/OFF" button and your family just enjoys sitting around watching the dark, reflective screen.

So as I mentioned, on page 2 they want me to list every channel I get, what channel it is on, and where it is from.  I'm going to print out a screen cap of a Google search with "auburn maine time warner cable lineup" in the search box, and paste it to the page.

Triple Zero

what is that, some sort of survey to check who watches what?

I suppose best way of trolling them is filling out the questions as if you're a teabagger (or some other horrible large part of the population), while watching terribly interesting things.
