HBO, HBO Max, or Max?  I assume it's not on Cinemax.  I long for the days of 2, 4, 7, and sometimes 29.

 

HBO and HBO Max. Which was previously HBO Go, then rebranded to HBO Max, then rebranded to just Max, but they then realized the shortened version sucked, so they rebranded BACK to HBO Max.

 

Corporations, amirite?

It's not TV.  It's HBO and HBO Max.  Unless you haven't upgraded the Max app software to change to HBO Max.  We'll need your user name and password which you pry forgot because we like to complicate the hell out of things.  We'll send you a four digit verification number on your cell phone in order to send you the e-mail to how to reset your password.  Once you do that you can choose your own password but it can't be anything similar to the one before so you'll most likely have no memory of this password unless you write it down.  I don't have a pen so I'll pry just use the suggested password and go through this whole shenanigans in a couple of months when they update their software on the app again.  However, they'll add three security questions just to be on the safe side after the process.  We've come such a long way as a society.

Problem: my computer won't turn on.

 

Solution: check to make sure the computer is plugged in; check to make sure the power button is in the ON position; check the cables for damage; dig up underground cables in your garden and check for damage; drive out into country and check electricity pylons for signs of fallen wires; call hotline.

The whole thing makes me howl with laughter every time I read it (about once every 2/3 years). It's brilliantly observed.

You forgot that the user might not be attractive. 😁

Thanks for sharing.  There's a lot of gems in there.  I was crying with laughter when they said "If you have not yet committed suicide, then insert Diskillete 1 in in Drive slot 2 (or vice versa)."
