For centuries, monsters have been vilified in countless books
and films. Although the bad reputation that monsters have earned is
generally well-deserved - they do, after all, frequently hurt
people, destroy things, and otherwise cross the line of what's
socially acceptable - it's important to keep in mind that some
monsters are actually a lot like us. They go to work, they spend
time with their families, and they like to unwind at the end of a
long day. And that's where this story begins.
A recent Spectrum commercial shows a mummy, the grim reaper, a
demon, and a creepy puppet getting ready to play an online game,
when their attempts to unwind are thwarted by slow internet speeds.
When the puppet asks the demon whether he gets his internet through
a fax, the demon responds that it's all he could get in his
place with AT&T. An announcer states that "bad download
speeds are evil," and that "Spectrum downloads speeds are
20X faster than AT&T," as the same words appear
