Centurylink

The internet/phone service provider that advertises speeds far over what you get.

Exists because of having monopolies and people that are ignorant of how slow their speeds are.
Person Under Centurylink Monopoly: Wow! I just increased my speeds from 0.25 Mbps to 2 Mbps with this new upgrade!

Lucky Person Living Somewhere Else: Aww, yeah! Upgrading from 30 Mbps to 60 Mbps!

Person Under Centurylink Monopoly: HOW ARE YOUR SPEEDS POSSIBLE!?

Lucky Person Living Somewhere Else: I have a good ISP!
Get the Centurylink mug.

ADSL

Internet with speeds that you were excited to have 25 years ago.
ADSL was a great upgrade from dial up when I got it in 2000, but I wish they'd offer broadband out here already...
