I can't wait to get an HTC Touch HD.

My current phone is about three years old (got it when Casino Royale came out, whenever that was) and the features that it shares in common with the iPhone, it does better than the iPhone, e.g. camera, mms, bluetooth transfers etc.

I just find most iPhone owners to take the same mentatlity as some religious people, in that you can present them with facts and they show complete disregard for them. Or they defend with "ahh, I don't need that feature, or I can live with/without this"

It seems DeToX is the only exception to this.

Bungie.net

I don't give a fuck about who works there and what they're doing. I want news on upcoming games/projects, not where one of the employees comes from and how long they've worked there.

I actually like reading some of their stories.

Especially the one's that pertain to what I'd like to do when I'm older.

It gives people motivation, and advice. I think it's cool, though yes it should have some more stuff other than "Look at us playing games", "Look at this funny video some guy made", and the interviews of their employees.

I like it. Gives perspective on what it'd be like to develop games in a big studio. Which I guess is an interest of a lot of people who have and haven't got any knowledge on the subject, they'd still want to make games after playing some good ones.

You get their updates like you always have on a friday. You get information on what its like working there on another day. Why aren't you complaining about community spotlight too? Since thats also on their list and that spot could be better used for more updates too...

edit: at the same time. They don't really give much information on their games in the updates.

All the more reason why said quote does not make much sense.

Alternatively:
There are other threads on this forum?

So I decided I needed another router(4th) for all my Xboxes, so I found an old one I wasn't using I was going to get working, I plug it in, and I hear *ssssssssssssssss*. I'm like.. Cool. Then it got kinda scary when it lit on fire and smoke was pouring out while it's in my hand.

I smashed a giant candy cane in my hand with a spoon and it cut me :(

Stupid candy cane....

also, I forgot to do my history project..... OOPS!
Hopefully I'll conjure something to do, like skip, or actually do it... now there's an Idea.

Also also, I'm watching Jim Gaffigan's special on comedy central. I find it to be delicious.

Oh, and I'm going to be selling my body for money, anyone want a kidney? Turns put they run for about 43 grand, or something like that, it's all for a good cause though, and the fact that I want some money.

Drawing well is really hard you guys, takes like a lot of effort for me. LIKE A LOT

I deleted the poem for your sake.

Edit:
And I got back into skateboarding over the past few weeks, I'm planning on getting an almost impact, prolly a 7.5 by 31.75 because I like my decks thinner with lots of pop.
Then I'm getting some new trucks, cuz mine are shit, I'm hoping to get some independent stage 10, or some destructo mids but I haven't had much experience with trucks, so I need suggestions.

That and I need munny
