Hacking Romtelecom
Hack (hăk) v. – To play with a problem until a solution is found.
While Romtelecom is busy trying to deinsert its cranium from the confines its collective sphincter, I do — in fact — have my internet service back. All my frustration at their lack of cluefulness had given me a whim: I plugged in the old broadband modem, complete with its old username and password settings for the cancelled account, and voila! I am back.
Days from now, they’ll finally get around to sending some technicians over here to set up my service. I can’t wait to see the look on their faces. Incompetent boobs.

Haha, I’m familiar with the pre-computer definitions, including the irritable coughing version. And yet hacking has become to chop away at problems in internet vernacular.
However, having bragged about all that, I am floored to learn the work hacui! That gets my goat; thanks Bogdan.
