@lynsey if you want to fly to the Chicago area, I'm sure we can figure out how to have you not set yourself on fire. in reply to lynsey #
@majornelson I'm not picking it up at midnight, I'm waiting until tomorrow #mw3 when the store opens. in reply to majornelson #
All I do all day is fix things and people, but when I'm broken nobody's there to help fix me. Everybody thinks I lead an easy life. #
@marcoarment I object to having to sit through a 15 second advertisement while waiting for a 10 second video. Therefore I don't watch it. #
@truejerseygirl The idea behind the commercial is that "diet/light" drinks aren't just for women, as other commercials portray. in reply to truejerseygirl #
@flargh @ejacqui it was a requirement at my high school. It was only one class, but it was required to graduate. in reply to flargh #
@ATT is it possible to move a line from a family plan, mid-contract on that line, to its own plan without incurring an ETF? #
@flargh @ejacqui I didn't say it has helped much. I wish I was more disciplined with money than I currently am. One of my many flaws. in reply to flargh #
@ATTCustomerCare is it possible to move a line from a family plan, mid-contract on that line, to its own plan without incurring an ETF? #
I've been sitting in front of GameStop waiting for them to open and I have seen no less than 8 people try and open the door before they open #
@MEOWPWR yes, it is a November Monsoon due to the wind and ALL DAY rain in Chicagoland in reply to MEOWPWR #
@ToriOreo Congrats on the the next humanoid. /cc @akmcquade in reply to ToriOreo #
@CallOfDutyElite thanks for the update, luckily for me I'm more interested in the single player first, then I'll sign up for elite. in reply to CallOfDutyElite #
My Copy of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3: Hardened Edition is sitting Unopened in front of me. I'm going to re-finish MW2 before starting it #
@ToriOreo according to the response I got from @ATTCustomerCare it can be done online, but will probably end up at the store just to be sure in reply to ToriOreo #
Look at the ceilings of an Apple store sometime. Notice that there is a tray that looks a lot like the bottom of an iMac memory cover. #
@majornelson ooh… Good to know. I'll be eagerly awaiting what news you have, but I think I have an idea. in reply to majornelson #
It's rather freaky how the Apple Genius knew who I was despite not being here that often. It's like they triangulate based on your serial # #

@ikearstin I realize I'm boring and not worth following. That's why I don't ask people to follow me. in reply to ikearstin #
It's so great to not be shown any common courtesy by others. It makes me wonder why I put up with shit sometimes. #
