Okay CCP,
not long ago I have received from you, even though I didn't ask for it, a big TV for my hangar.

But I think your guys that installed it forgot to leave me the remote.
You see, all it plays all day in this annoying preset advertising channel, while it may be an effective brain cell killer, I want to watch some news or a movie, so how do I switch channels on it?


Your customer.

Why are you docked looking at the TV when you could be out in space?

Just be glad you dont constantly see an ad for the last alliance you where in that you and your corp decided to leave a few years ago because you got tired of all the pissing and moaning, and people loosing haulers in wardecs, and the alliance leader NEVER asking the CEO's of the member corps before doing ANYTHING, and the constant bitching although your corp was only 1 of 2 that ever performed worth a damn in wars remotely at all, and oh ya, the bitching and moaning.

You know the normal stuff.

Eh, at least they are doing well now.

OP's right, they gave us this huge, unwanted monstrosity then failed to enable the controls, most importantly, the on/off switch. And to those who keep prattling on about staying in a hangar rather than joining them in their spacey adventures, well, they apparently never fit ships, or buy/sell stuff, or check maps for whatever or even plot way-points. After some thought it occurs that maybe, just maybe, this is all about those raised on and addicted to TV and those of us who don't watch the damned thing. Could be, never know.

Maybe. How many times have I had that "Where are my F'ing keys at," moment while holding my keys?

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."
