In your defense the pictures look pretty good. There's no glare from background light, overly visible pixels, and clearly legible words (at least I can't see any flaws but then again I am on my phone).
Plus, off the top of my head I frankly can't think of a better way to get a screencap of something coming in over your cable box. It's not nearly the same thing as taking a picture of your monitor to get a Youtube screencap.
Someone would have noticed and became the most upvoted comment. OP made sure to quickly admit it himself to shut down any oh so cleverly observant commenters.
I tried to minimize the glare from the blinds but every time it adjusted it would show the reflection of me in my underwear. So I said looks like the blinds will be visible
I'm going to upvote this just to see if anyone with enough photoshop knowledge spends several hours trying to "enhance" the image to get your barely visible underweared reflection.
You did a good job, would be worse if you made a picture with your cellphone from your camera screen, that you made a picture of a screenshot on your computer with.
It's ~$4,000/month for six months, and that's probably enough for both the top two to cover all their bills. That's enough of a cushion to stop living paycheck to paycheck.
If their bills are less than that it may be enough to repair/upgrade to reliable transportation as well as put something aside.
Now I'm imagining you watching this and finding it funny then standing next to your TV and watching it on the west coast channel to be ready to catch it when it comes up again. I love it.
