Here’s what porn would be like if the ‘cable guy’ worked for Time Warner

You probably won’t think of your package bundle the same way again.

Next to death, taxes, and mouth infections, there is nothing in the world worse than being a Time Warner Cable subscriber. Nothing. Whether you’re enjoying its sporadic massive outages or its hilariously inept customer service team, using TWC is like being in a BDSM relationship without any of the pleasure.

Thankfully, the folks at College Humor give us a video that gives the frustration of being a Time Warner subscriber a delightfully porny twist. 

“If the Cable Guy in Porn Was From Time Warner” perfectly skewers the interminable customer-service wait time, the spotty signal, and the ineffective voice recognition technology—and the porn trope of the horny delivery guy who comes over to plug in your cable and ends up plugging in much more. BOW-CHICKA-WOW. 

The result is so hilariously spot-on that I don’t want to spoil it, but you probably won’t think of your package bundle the same way again.
