When the Digital World Goes Dark

Imagine waking up on a Monday morning, ready to conquer the world from your cozy SF apartment, only to discover that Comcast has decided to throw a massive technological tantrum. Welcome to today’s internet outage extravaganza! 🌐💥

The Great Connectivity Catastrophe

Spanning neighborhoods faster than hipster coffee trends, this internet blackout has struck the heart of San Francisco. From Polk Gulch to Castro, over 2,000 Xfinity customers are experiencing a digital detox they definitely didn’t sign up for. Your Netflix binge? Canceled. Your work Zoom call? Ghost town.

Where’s My Internet, Comcast?

Comcast, in its infinite wisdom, initially promised service restoration by 1 pm - a timeline about as reliable as San Francisco’s housing market. That promise quickly stretched to 8 pm, leaving customers wondering if they’ve accidentally time-traveled to a pre-internet apocalypse.

The Silver Lining

Let’s be real: this is peak San Francisco drama. While tech workers panic about missed Slack messages, the rest of us are enjoying an unexpected analog day. Board games, anyone? ✌️

Pro tip: Always have a mobile hotspot, because Comcast gonna Comcast.
