pet peeve...
i just talked with my friend.. and i HATE when people throw away money!
her brother had bought a $2000 computer a few years ago which just turned to crap. she needs one because she has an online class like i do. i offered to help her build one since my brother helped me build mine. 'itll cost you about $500 since u already have the monitor and stuff' well i had just talked to my bro about parts when icalled her. turned out she just went out to get a computer with her mom... sony vaio.... $2200!! "oh wellwe got the flat screen" ok ok thats $300-$400 "well we got the 3 year warranty for $300" wonderful, u just earned this asshole commission "well he told me that if yuo build it yourself its becuase you only want certain parts. but just becuase yuo want it, doesnt mean someone else will want it. so if you uby it yourself then yuo have all of the parts you need" hmmmm for $500 i have EVERY thing youc ould possibly need (minus a dvd burner.. but there isnt much use for THOSe yet) "well its my parents money so who cares" oh yeh you wouldnt have anything better to spend that 1700 on anyway... :rolleyes: THEN just on fark http://www.delawareonline.com/newsjo...onesarent.html "Ring-tone revenues in North America totaled $94.3 million in 2003, and they're expected to jump to $116 million in 2004" hmmmm.. and i download mine for free? sure its only $1 but what dont people understand that $1 adds up and that these fools DONT NEED THAT MUCH MORE MONEY FOR SOME DAMN CHEESY RINGTONE!!! :mad: and to think that money could be going to say oh i dont know.. illiteracy? hunger? aids???? :mad: just had to vent |
yeah! And what the hell is with those little flap-top coffee lids? If you don't want to spill your beer then you shouldn't be driving with it!
|
a couple weeks ago i was drinking coffee in my car and spilled it all over my lap and my cell phone
luckily i was in the driveway so i just ran in and changed right quick. made the phone smell nice |
Good rant.I agree 100%.

Fluff,
You and I think alike! I don't mind spending money--but I like value for what I spend. The computer I'm using tonight I built from parts from the resale shop and from the dumpster--it too doesn't have a DVD burner but it does have a CD reader--and a separate CD reader-burner combo--the USB port--2.0--works great for the printer, scanner, and my digital camera and a couple of jump drives--its running Windows 98 SE--which is pretty adequate. I've spent the afternoon shopping for a new Ford Pick-up on line--a pretty stripped down model--let's see how that works. I work with a bunch of clients who don't have any money--mainly because they fuck it off by spending it without getting any value. I found a DVD player in the trash--less than a month old--DVD stuck in tray--now works fine--and a less than a month old Epson Printer--the one that prints DVDs and CDs--just a stuck ink cartridge--what a waste--for them--not for me Thanks for the thread Juan. |

cant say ive had much luck dumpster digging but hey, maybe im looking in the wrong dumpsters! lol. wish i had idiots like that around me! really though i think thats great what ur doing. for real its not even so much the companies robbing the consumers, its the consumers allowing themsevles to be robbed! people throw around money so easily and it really more than just material goods. you can do a WHOLE lot of good with that money yet people will continue to pull this shit? if theres anything i cant stand.. its waste. so wasteful this nation! our landfill here wil be filled by 2012 and people STILL dont recycle! hell i work at a WILDLIFE sanctuary and im digging in the trash for all the plastic and cans that they throw out! Argh! |
