Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Nothing like having the local monopoly cut your electricity, charge your household with YOUNG children an extra 400 dollars because of random, variable "back-charges" and "late-fees" because we didn't pay at SIX O FUCKING CLOCK IN THE MORNING ON THE DAY IT'S DUE AND WE HAVEN'T EVEN GOT OUR FUCKING DIRECT DEPOSIT YET.

(we get paid on the same day and they randomly decided to shut our electricity off earlier than usual despite normal payments; payment date changes from 30-31st sometimes and same with our checks.)

Of course, we asked for an extension two days before, just for ONE FUCKING DAY. They agreed! Guess they fucking forgot! Or they don't give a fuck!

Fuck these god damn fucking ghouls. Faceless, skinless walking pieces of soulless flesh that suck the resources out of every man, woman and child. They are fucking worth absolutely FUCK-ALL to this god damn world.

OH AND I HAD TO WAIT 43 HOURS FOR MY FUCKING POWER TO BE TURNED BACK ON. FUCK THESE GHOULS. MY ENTIRE FUCKING FRIDGE SPOILED.

Is it a private company or a public service?

I also wish dislikes were public ๐Ÿฅฒ

Public ran as private w board/etc. best of both worlds for the suites. Absorb giant tax bailouts/subsidiaries while acting like a private company.

They're actually being acquired right now into a private company by some Spanish energy company.
