I really don't see how anyone can like any energy drinks. Monster, Full Throttle. etc. It tastes disgusting and has no redeeming qualities except the most amazing crash I've ever seen.

They're tasty. In my opinion.

The crashing is cool, in a way.

Especially if you ride BMX, (me) you can drink a Monster BFC and get killer energy and concentration, and when you're done a few hours later you can go home and sleep your ass off.

I hate Java.

Gamestop, and their 'by the book' mindset.
I go to return H2V (yes, I realize maybe I shouldn't have bought it), and they give me crap about "It's not under company policy to accept PC returns", so I tell them plenty of other stores I've been to have taken back my PC games, and they tell me "well that's illegal due to copyright laws".. I knew then I was dealing with a complete moron. It may be that may be that they shouldn't take back pc games because people could just copy the game and take it back, but I could just as easily do that with a 360 game, or an xbox game, or any kind of game.
I argued with him for a while, and he ultimately just gave me a fresh copy of H2V..

I was at fault, I know, but Gamestop is run by complete idiots anyways.
In any case, I'm pissed (needless to say). All I wanted to do was exchange it for a different game, which would have worked at any other store.

Gray Whale.
While I don't know their policies, and they might be the same, I prefer going there whenever I look for a game. Their people are (from my experience) so much better to deal with. The locations might be futher from you than GameStops, though.

There's one right by my house.
I always forget they sell games. The people there are awesome.

I was beginning to wonder if there are any cool people in Utah.

I only have about ten dollars for Christmas shopping, and I haven't bought anything yet.

Physicists could not have picked two more similar symbols for momentum and mass density.

(momentum, mass density)
(p, ρ)

Fantastic.

Edit:

Oh, and awesome.

Momentum is p = mv
(mass * velocity)

Mass density is ρ = m/V
(mass / Volume)

This shouldn't cause problems

Oh, and thanks Scotty. Guess I gotta go look for some friends...

Since it'd probably be like 1mb max, I could host it. PM me later I suppose.

Aumaan Anubis · Post by **Aumaan Anubis** » Tue Nov 18, 2008 4:53 pm

much thanks.

I'll get to it soon.

So you're mad that you were uneducated of said store's policies?
Oh never mind, you already admitted you were wrong and really nullified your reason for such anger.
Woe are the teenage years.

Meh, I was more angry at the wasted $30 than anything.
Being jobless isn't very fun.

Gettin' kicked out tomaro morning, not too mad though, that place sucked anyway.

One of my better friends is dropping out of school tomorrow, then shortly after, moving to Pennsylvania, and joining the military. Damn.
Oh well.

Thanks to Tural, the majority of the posts here have been dramatically been reduced in size to either one word, brief/single statement, and/or only a quote of one of the above. Nice job man.

I haven't noticed. Does he just do it for the sake of uncluttering?

No.

Better?

Wait, that was a rant? I'd rather read a bunch of terrible short posts than skim a bunch of long posts. Which reminds me, I've never been skimboarding on a real skim board. Boogie boards don't cut the mustard. You look like a fool and they go nowhere. I don't know what cutting the mustard even means. And for that matter, who actually uses a knife to spread mustard on a sandwich? I'm more of a squirt and smear man myself. Just seems like a waste of a utensil that you end up having to clean later. That's if you even wash dishes. We have a dishwasher but we don't use it, so it takes forever to wash dishes like every day. Pointless.

See? Nobody should have to read that whole paragraph.
