My Favorite Niche Netflix Genres

If you haven’t seen this list of over 70K niche Netflix genres, either because you’re not desperate to find your favorite ‘Raunchy Indian Space Westerns from 1970’ or ‘Post-apocalyptic tongue-in-cheek neo-noir animae’, here you go: NICHE NETFLIX GENRES . Just type in your favorite code after http://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/ . Netflix n Chill got a lot more dope for me and hopefully all of you.

Here are my favorite categories, some of which are so specific they have just one film!!! WOW!

Political Tearjerkers: a blistering pace AND waterworks? I’m sold. Imma watch Lee Daniels’ The Butler about 10 times in the next 36 hours.

Irreverent British Independent Comedies: SIMON PEGG.

And finally…

Military Science & Nature Documentaries: Are these films commissioned by the military? Do we learn about our favorite army gardens? Do we learn about genetically modified humans (GMHs)? Who knows. But apparently this film is all you need if you’re interested in that sort of stuff. Screen Shot 2016-04-05 at 2.47.23 PM

The Bullblog 73: Cartoon Character

This character still keeps me up at night. To think that someone at Nick thought, “Hey these kids aren’t going to shit their pants from this, GREEN LIGHT IT,” is beyond me. If I so as hear the opening chords to the theme song, I’ll need to call Dr. Horowitz for an emergency session.

CatDog, which might I add IS NOT A NAME, almost ruined my childhood. Maybe if they gave this thing a more sensible name, not just the conjoining of Cat and Dog, I could have gotten behind it. This thing had no tail. Just heads for tails. I still have no idea where they excreted. This thing was on the verge of combusting. Both couldn’t face forward when walking. In order to look forward when the other had the lead, the other had to do a 180 degree turn of the head which probably developed vicious arthritis. And on top of all that these opposing poles were assholes to each other. I hate you CatDog.

BREAKING: ‘Spectre’ Theme Song Released

Sam Smith did it. It’s called “Writings On The Wall.” It’s not very good. I stopped listening roughly halfway through it. But…….you can listen here: Another Bad Bond Song

It wasn’t quite as bad as “Die Another Day,” by the Queen of Pop but not much better than Jack White’s “Another Way to Die.” I guess don’t put “die” in the title?

Txt me if you like it and want to tell me I have a “bad ear.”

How To Win Over a Comcast Technician’s Affection

For those of you who don’t know, in order to get anything done with Comcast/Xfinity (idk who really wears the pants over there) you need to chat with a live person. Here’s how you get them to say “You are really wonderful customer.” P.S I love you too Bhupendra. My Bhu Bhu. Pendy bear. B-time.

1 . Break them down: I initially called Bhupendra a robot due to his overly formal language and siri like responses. I then accused Bhupendra of using a fake name. He was put on the defensive.

2 . Immediately dismiss the necessity of using a live chat. Still not sure why they couldn’t just email me my password so I could check my bill but whatever I love u Bhupendra.

3 . Back off a little bit. Let Bhupendra know that you know he’s there to help you and you appreciate it, but merely hate the game, not the player.

4 . Mix business with pleasure. Ask him what he’s doing tonight? What’s he wearing? What does he like to do when he’s not being a bro helping out customers? Is he single? What’s his middle name? Let him know he would mean something to you even if you didn’t meet over Comcast live chat.

5. Gratitude: After receiving my password, I told Bhu Bhu he was the best employee at Comcast I’ve ever spoken to.

6. Bask in the glory of being a “kind and patient customer” even if you just spent 20 minutes revealing dark secrets just to obtain a password that should have taken 15 seconds to provide.

I couldn’t find the survey at the end of the chat, so I hope this message will suffice Pendy-bear. <3 <3 <3 <3.
