Last. Dial up internet. Those were the days. We tried not to sneeze too hard. We learned to pray that the download going on ended before the connection broke. We prayed that someone didn't make a call in or out while the DL was going on.
If you're ever in the situation of the last story short the red and green connections together with a paper clip for 1 to 2 seconds. This will cause both ends of the connection to assume the other hung up. And no one will know you did the sabotage.
Why Sabotage? Had the same Problem once. I simply called the Landlord from Work and told him the Problem. He didnt care, i told him Rent will be 20% less till the Problem is fixed since he doesnt deliver on the agreed Terms. That got him moving to do something.
My story about internet hoggers. When I was a student we had ADSL modem and behind it, a small router. One day my flat mates has discovered a "beauty" of free movies via P2P sharing (BearShare, Torrents) and then started a crusade on downloading everything they could. As it was early 2000s, we had only 512Kbps, so as you can imagine (and for those who don't know) torrents has bottle necked the line. I did what I had to, as they were not tech savy, I logged to the router and blocked all p2p traffic. So finally after few weeks of not being able to even open gmail due to hogging the line, I was able to browse internet decently again. They were calling a landlord and the IP company many times, but everything else worked ok, so they got nowhere with it. When they asked me if I am able to fix it, I sold them a BS, that maybe torrents are blocked with the provider or due to lack of external IP (torrents in passive mode back in the days) they have problems with connecting to the peers. Fortunately this things was true i.ex. in dorms and some smaller lan ISPs in the area so when they asked their friends, at least one person sufferred similar condition. Pros of being the only IT student in the flat. Years later I had similar thing in another location, but internet bandwidth risen up to few Mbps and I only had to set proper QOS on the router, so someone torrenting was not sucking up all the bandwidth.
"Rocky Moose" This story has everything. I am a very happy camper. 😀 Do not make trouble for Moose and his GIRL Thank you, Red Wheel for bringing back memories of one of the hippest cartoon series ever. 🤗 as well as a channel that delivers delight every day. 🥇
Last story. I'm anti-social. I don't like people and prefer to be as far away from them as possible, but even so I'm not rude to people. You can be anti-social AND polite at the same time.
You mean asocial. Anti-social means you hate society. It is the A and the S in ASPD, aka the technical term for being a psychopath. Asocial means you aren’t a part of society or don’t want to be just as asexual means someone who has no desire for sex.
There's an old phrase that started in Hollywood. Mainly because you can be a star today, on the street tomorrow. Something like this: be nice to the people on the way up -,you will want them to cushion your fall on the way down. Hank should thought of that. Although, during the 08 crash, I saw many real estate agents like him - who screwed their people over - went out of business. And, when they found jobs, they were making far, far less. Like going from upper middle-class to just above poverty level. Barry.
I rented a house that was owned by a real estate business owner. He was great to deal with. Once the water heater started leaking. He asked me if I could do the replacement of the water heater myself. I said that I could. He said to go get the water heater that I wanted, and deduct the cost from the rent. He then said to deduct $100 for my labor. It was a win win for everyone. I also added a 220 plug in the garage for my welder. He came over and looked at the way that I did it, and he was pleased. It was up to code.
That last story was more petty than pro revenge though. But those were fun days IMO... I still lived with my parents and being a certified Sun Solaris administrator with access to early Linux versions it should come as no surprise that I already shared my Internet access with my parents back in those days. Every evening approx. 3 - 4 hours worth of 14k4 (later 28k8) Internet for all, good times.
Manny years ago My wife and her ex were having a war. He tried to get physical with me, but I out weighed him 60 pounds and am 6" taller. That did not work out in his favor. LOL Back then, the party that initiated the phone call was the one that had to end the call. I would find some out of the way phone booth and call the A-Hole. I would then leave the receiver off the hook and put an "Out Of Order " sign on the booth and drive away. I think that the operator could disconnect the call, but he would need to travel to someone's house to call the operator. I did this a few times.
in the real estate agent story if I was OP I would have put all our furniture in storage and then moved into a hotel for alot less than $1450 a month and then when the house was ready move out of the hotel and into our house because well F--K HANK AND I'M PETTY AS F--K
"You don't have to like it, you just have to pay it"
Famous 12 words that ended up ruining Hank's life. That's what Greed does to you.

@@kaitan4160 Where's the maliciousness in that? It's more fun to mess with a-holes by randomly causing their connection to drop every few minutes.
Hi RedWheel hope you are well. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day and Please stay safe all who reads this and watches this video.🏴😷😁👍.

@@JaelinBezel I stand corrected. Thank you. :)
I agree with you. I ride my dirt bike and quad all by myself. I do this for hours!! I like it that way.
Yes! Good morning Redwheel!
First story is an oldy but a goodie.
Good morning everyone
Good morning Red Wheel
Wow

Good morning all. Have a great weekend.
Misleading title.
Have a great weekend everyone
Good morning RedWheel ! Good morning everyone !

Good After Noon
Morning Redwheel, any chance of getting IDWH.
possibly
I miss those! Karens are SO entertaining when they rant and then are put in their place... sometimes in the back of a police car!
Hank should have remembered that saying “be careful of the toes you step on today as they may be connected to the butt you have to kiss tomorrow.”
OR, connected to the foot that will kick your butt tomorrow.
Stories #1 & #2 were lame vengeances, op1 and op2 should have gone scorched earth. Never forgive premeditated attacks.
Last story, unfortunately there wouldn't be incessant beeping through the night. The telco switch shuts it down after a minute or so.
It's kind of crazy to me remembering the internet in 2002. I graduated from University that year and was extremely spoiled by a T3 connection.
New??? Soooo old
1st story: won't take care of the garbage disposal should it break? . .. that should have set off screaming, alarm bills just to walk away!
Good morning everyone ☕️☕️
