Douglas Reinhardt · 05/23/08 12:30PMArgh! I Hate My Cell Phone Company SO MUCH Right Now!
Douglas Reinhardt · 05/22/08 04:43PMIn a scene that was eerily reminiscent of the film Network, actress Uma Thurman stuck her head out her building's window and publicly vented frustrations about her cell phone company. Thurman's action inspired a man in the building across the street to yell about his frustration with his cable company's lack of HD channels, which caused the man on the floor below him to yell back that he should look into getting satellite television. As is wont to happen in New York City, the two men got into a very loud and public debate over satellite vs. cable. Thurman saw the men across yelling and yelled at them, "Hey, don't ruin my moment with a bunch of bullshit HD talk. This was about me and my issues with my phone, dingus."

I'm starting to not mind Joshua's bitching and even sometimes, allowing him to call himself, Josh. "
