    Watch how you word things....

    Was recently perusing the 'net about DirecTV crap (some of you know how much I lovesssss DTV) and found this customers entry about his DTV complaint. I doubt he realized what he wrote at the end:

    DirecTV Inc Complaint

    Deceptive Practices - Deceptive practices

    I have read all the complaints and have the same. I never signed a contract and was told it was month to month service and I could cancel anytime. I want out and its not so easy. The rep told me the only way out is if I die and my family sends a death certificate to them. They want $400 dollars to terminate early.

      I don't get it. What's wrong with how it's worded?

        I think the guy reads that they need "$400 for early termination" or however it's worded. For some reason, the guy thinks that termination, in this case, means death. I don't know how he thinks that.

          Many people do......that's what makes it humorous. Maybe it was that Terminator movie. See? We can always blame Arnold.

            I know what the poster is trying to get at... but is this really worth posting? It makes perfect sense as it is. Even if it may be a double entendre.

              Double entendre usually involves risque matters. Well at least one guy around here has a sense of humor. I'm gonna guess dossier is a Groucho Marx fan as well.
