My internets.

You know, there was a time when having a 56K modem was nice - a pleasure even, but not now, right now it's just another way of saying you_still_don't_have_broadband.

Take me for instance, I have satellite internet (sigh), now while this isn't a 56k modem, it's pretty damn close. I average at getting speeds of 15 KBPS, and I have a fap limit of 50 MB / Hr. This is just ridiculous.

And then I go to school and do a speed test which hits 35 MBPS. That just makes me sad. Here my internet connection is more advanced than that of my school's, yet it's a bajillion times slower.
Oh, and did I mention that they nearly ban BitTorrent?

Here's what I have to deal with:



A standard 100 MB download takes about 1.5 Hrs to finish.
FaceBook loads in a staggering 5 minutes.
That image took 20 seconds to upload.
