Megacable Blows

Digital Cable typo listing How to Blow a Billionaire
It's true. I have lost some of my love for Megacable, but I'm saving that for another post.
Instead, today we're going to talk about something they did that made me laugh. Today Shawn was looking at the digital cable guide and he saw the listing for the FX show, How to Blow a Billion...

Proper title on FX-created bumper
...but instead, it looked more like How to Blow a Billionaire. It's a little off, written as Billionarie...

not "Billionaire"
...but it's close enough that we both were shocked and amazed. Maybe that's some way for them to avoid a copyright infringement lawsuit from Vivid Video.
In any case, it's a sure-fire way to get people to tune and check it out, even if it is cheating a little.
At least they do properly label it as an 'adult' show.

When I think of ways to blow a billion dollars, semi-attractive skankwads and pitchers of beer top the list.
