Progerse

(no typo in the title, read more Vonnegut)

Comcast On-Demand is the hottest thing to happen to television since the remote control. We were sitting around last night watching all of these music videos which they have in their library but never seem to see the light of day, even on MTV2/Fuse/etc. I didn't even know that Kid Koala had the money to make videos until last night ("Carpal Tunnel Syndrome" actually makes sense when accompanied with a video).

There is amazing other shit that you can do with On-Demand too. Of course it offers concerts and movies and shit like that, but there are also guitar lessons, weather reports, and all sorts of other unnecessary digital tidbits to improve the life of the upper-middle class sububurbanite (which is so desperately in need of improvement).

Along with tagless undershirts and that zipper-like device that they put on saran wrap boxes to make cutting sheets off easier, On-Demand is definitely on my list of inventions which have made this century better than the last.
