soul4poetry! I hope you're having a fantastic day, one filled with love, happiness and good things. xxx
Mikey and Gerard's cereal twitters have turned me into a flailing mess of love. Who's better than Mikey? No one! Cereal boxes, in his suitcase.

Thenwasoncedelight linked to this. Early days MCR, a hug of awesomeness, the baffling fact that despite obviously being coated in excessive amounts of product, Mikey's bird nest hair do can actually move when he walks.
So many heart-eyes. So many!
This helps make up for the clusterfuck of Sky. James woke up at 5am and found out our satellite had been turned off, eventually he could talk to someone and found out a cancellation notice had been put on the account, which would include wiping all the shows stored on the DVR. After being passed around he found out that Sky had him down as deceased, so had started turning everything off. They've reversed that now, being as he's not actually dead, the only thing is we get our satellite, phones and broadband from Sky, and they said sometimes internet disconnects take up to three days to happen. It's a small chance, but if I drop out of sight totally, you know why.

Date: 2009-01-22 11:26 am (UTC)When he finally got through to someone who could actually help they asked him if he was sitting down, which is never a good sign.
But apparently he died two days ago, and it's only because he did wake so early that the DVR wasn't wiped.
After phoning around he found out you need a death certificate to prove death, so it looks like someone shut down the wrong account, which really. Way to go Sky.

Date: 2009-01-22 11:28 am (UTC)The best we can make out is it's a total mistake, putting our account in as someone elses, because you need a death certificate to get out of the contract. But whatever it was, they messed up big time.

Date: 2009-01-22 11:37 am (UTC)I once read an article about a Finnish woman who had been too the magistracy to (if I remember correctly) change her name, but it was entered wrong into the database, and all of a sudden she was dead. She said it was quite a job to get back among the living, because that information had automatically moved on to so many places.

Date: 2009-01-22 01:10 pm (UTC)It's so ridiculous. Sky is a huge company, that they can go around killing people off like that without checking amazes me.

Date: 2009-01-22 02:32 pm (UTC)Or is it a matter of being mostly dead all day?
:P
[Seriously, this whole thing sounds like a comedy routine. Black comedy, mind... *shakes head at Star*]
"No worries Gee!"
*gleeface*
How are they so damn cute?! I don't know what I love more - disgruntled!Gerard blogging about his cereal frustration, or Mikeyway, planning a mission of mercy and sugary goodness. [His suitcase is pretty big - He can fit a lot of boxes of Frankenberry in there.] &Ways;
Oh and *HUGS*

Date: 2009-01-22 06:01 pm (UTC)Ways. OMG. I can't even deal, and right now Mikey is twitter spamming with pics. The latest one of Piglet in a Mikey Fuckin Way t-shirt. My heart ♥

What a mess!! You would really think they were more careful about things like that! I hope James can get everything sorted so that you don't go and disappear on us. Congratulate him on not being dead from me too ;-)
PS I have a morbid mind apparently, I now have Early Sunsets Over Monroeville running through my mind!

Date: 2009-01-22 05:58 pm (UTC)It's an awesome clip :D
I'm guessing that Mikey is bored at the moment, being as he's twitter spamming with pics. Though him posting fanart of himself made me twitch.
I hope it gets sorted too, though it's up to them now. But I will congratulate him, and tell you he has his own related song *g*

And ZOMG, that video is also very glee-inducing! ♥
The whole Sky thing just makes be go o.0 though. SO MUCH FAIL!

no subject
Date: 2009-01-25 09:23 pm (UTC)How did that happen? Surely they would need some sort of certificate in that situation O.o!
It worrying because I'm in the same situation as you, we get our tv, broadband and phone from Sky.
Hope everything is sorted now *hugs*!
no subject
Date: 2009-01-26 01:30 pm (UTC)You'd think so, which is why we suspect it was someone pressing the wrong buttons and cancelling the wrong account. Which isn't very reassuring either to be honest.

Date: 2009-01-26 11:11 am (UTC)Omg I know! Those guys? They're not real. There's no way they can be real. They're like Brendon, they were made up by fans' collective minds. It's the only explanation *nods*

Date: 2009-01-26 01:29 pm (UTC)So, today I saw there was a Mikey/Frank fic posted and was all !!!!!!!!
Then erilyn posted MCR footage, part of which is Gerard and Frank mentioning Mikey's French pirate phase, and no lie. I watched Frank say 'oh Mikey' 88768992 times. I stopped counting at 20 /o\

I just had to go listen to that bit again. I have a problem. But oh, the last question of part 5. My heart!
