MCI vs. AT&T : The Battle Turns Ugly...

MCI :"Not only does AT&T charge you more, but the next time you go on vacation, they're going to break into your house and steal your cat."

AT&T : "What MCI won't tell you about their new Friends & Family II plan is that by signing up you are agreeing to have yourself and everyone in your calling circle lobotomized."

MCI : "You know what AT&T does with all that money they steal from you in the middle of the night? They buy up koala bears and pandas and turn them into sloppy joe sandwich meat."

AT&T : "If you join MCI's Friends and Family program you are automatically added to the calling circle of a really boring guy named 'Gus' who will call you sometime between three and five a.m. every morning to discuss his fears about dental floss."

MCI : "AT&T -- Their chief executives write obscene graffiti all over municipal transportation systems throughout the country; their staff are arrogant, indolent morons. We hate them, and so should you."

AT&T : "Did you know that more serial killers and sex offenders use Friends and Family than any other service?"
