A Comcast customer received a shocking bill recently, and it wasn't the dollar amount that stood out. It was the name on the bill, which someone at the company had changed from Ricardo Brown to "Asshole Brown."

Comcast confirmed to The Huffington Post that the bill was real, and said the company was taking action.

Particularly coming from Comcast, the very embodiment of collective asshole-ism.

I am pretty sure I went to school with Asshole Brown. He became a pretty well known blues singer and has a couple of rather good CDs out.
One was called "Just Being Asshole" and the other was "Asshole and the Hole in the Ground Band:Can You Tell Us Apart?"

Asshole Brown and the Sphincters? In fact I think there was such an actual band. They had a big hit a few years ago with their cover of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire."
