I used to work for an ISP when Telescum bought Xtra online. I saw all the bullshit that happened, including the $0.02 per minute crap that they tried to bring in. There was also a lot of shit that went on that never mad the media.

I also have a personal reason for loathing Telescum. My uncle moved from one side of Papakura to the other. They jerked him around for more than a month before hooking up the phone line at his new place, even though they knew that he and my mum, who shared the place with my uncle, bith had health issues and had the St John's Ambulance medical alert alarm system One time when he was speaking to them the sales cunt he spoke to said that if he switched back to Telecom from Telstra Clear they would have his phone back that night. Telescum are a loathsome, scumsucking lowlife shithole of a company.

I wondered how the joke got started

A group of guys were attending a car-key party. One bet the others that he could recognise the make and model of any car by sticking the ignition key up his arse. The first key he correctly identified as a Ford Escort. The second as a Vauxhall Astra. As a joke, one of the guests got a spark-plug and shoved it up his arse. Immediately he said, "Yes, that's Champion!"
