I don't know what that is and I'm not going to look into it. Tell me what google fiber is. Is it dietary supplements from gooble?

Also I love you too.

It's an insanely-fast (1 gigabit/second) internet provider that Google rolling out in a few markets across the country. It's cheap, too - about $70 per month.

I'd....figuratively kill someone to make it available in SF, so I could be free from Comcast.

I'd commit many 'figurative' crimes for google fiber. For instance, I would 'figuratively'' cut someone's brake line before their morning commute or 'figuratively' replace awkwardsmile's advil with 'figurative' cyanide.

I assume you don't have any other option either?   We are stuck with Time Warner! Every once in a while it's like, "Hey remember what 56k was like?  Remember?  It was fun, right?"

I grew up in a small town and our phone lines were so old and crappy that the best we could get was 14.4k, until a half-assed broadband option became available in like 2003.

So, no, I don't remember 56k.

Actually I know we had 56k for a while, but I don't remember what it was like. I was probably too young to go on the internet anyway. I WAS JUST SAYING THAT IT CAN BE REALLY SLOW SOMETIMES.

I remember 56k not being all that bad for normal web browsing, partly because all the webpages were primitive files with few images (and no embedded video).

When Napster first came out, it took me 2 hours on a good day to download one song.

I got it on it pretty early, and by the time it was shut down a year or two later I had accumulated MAYBE 200MB of music,

With Google Fiber, you could download a feature-length porno in less than two minutes!
