If the rain stops and I ever get a good paycheck, I'm buying a Nexus 5x.
My problem is my contract is up or my phone otherwise always seems to need replaced at a time that's just far enough away from the release of the next "big" phone that I can't wait, but the nicest current phones will soon be old.
I lucked out with the Droid Turbo in that it released the exact day I went in. I was going to get a Nexus, but then they showed me this and I was like, "Shiny."
And I got it instead.
Nexus has vanilla Android and is cheaper, unlocked, and I won't be locked into a contract. I don't want to pay $700+ for a phone in my line of work. I am honestly shocked that this 1st Gen Moto X has lasted with no case as much as it's been dropped. Got it used for $150 so if I broke it then..meh.
Most keys have not been cleaned yet, only the enter key and the Num pad, took me 2 hours to clean them to a point i was happy with, will carry on once i can actually get it typing on my PC. But seeing it's lighting up, it clearly is working :D
Well I don't know this, because they're *** and haven't released it on PC!
Get it on PS4 scrub.
It predates my time discussing things on this forum.
And this forum in general, actually.
It reaches all the way back to Halo's complete and utter lack of originality, but everyone acted like it was amazing because it was on a console.
But let me give you my full opinion on FPS gaming on consoles/with a controller.
What originality did it bring?
The best anyone has ever been able to give me is "a good control scheme for FPS controller use," which is valid enough if you care about FPS with a controller in the first place.
i GOT HER TO WORK!! Im going to finish of cleaning the keys, leave the keys in water and leave them for the night to dry out. then reconstruct!
Uwahahaha!
Kinda sad that I made a cashier's day toady by asking her to ring me up for a $1 donation to help prevent child abuse. When I asked she started getting all breaky voiced, told me about how earlier a customer had given her grief and told her she shouldn't be harassing people for donations, so she was not going to ask anyone the rest of the day. If you don't want to donate, just say no thanks, you don't have to go out of your way to make someone feel shitty for trying to do a good thing.

I once had a VERY last minute gift to buy on Christmas Eve and the cashier at Walmart said "Merry Christmas and God bless!" as I finished paying. Now, when I got to the car I got kinda annoyed by the fact that if he had said that to the wrong person, he'd get in trouble because they'd probably ***. I don't know why people get mad over what amounts to "I believe a certain way but I wish you good will nonetheless."

Won't post the picture because I think "***" might work around the profanity filter but it goes like this:
Quote:
Cashier: Would you like to make a donation to help dying children and puppies in need?
Me: Why you gotta make me look like a selfish ***...I just wanted to get some milk...

See...I'm obviously me. But if someone says "Happy Easter," or "Merry Christmas," or whatever, I just smile and say, "you too."
Because here's the thing, you *** raising a ruckus: It's something they believe. And it's brought them joy. And it's something they're wishing to you, a complete stranger. They just want to share the joy they feel.
It takes absolutely nothing out of your day. You just have to acknowledge that someone believes differently from you and let them be happy with it.
Sure, if they follow you to your car and star shoving pamphlets about saving your soul from the devil, or if they start trying to convert you or otherwise force their ***on you, give them a friendly nudge to back off before it becomes a problem. But otherwise practice the equality you want. Live and let live, ***.
Edit: Also, the inverse is true, Bible-swearing friends. If someone says "Happy Holidays," deal with it.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
