ITT We rant about things that piss us off.

In this thread we rant about things that piss us off.

 

I'll start:

The launch for the Palm Pre is about as retarded as this. I mean, what the fuck. If you have been following this as closely as me, then you've been checking engadgetmobile.com every day, multiple times since this fucker was announced in early January at MWC or CES or wherever the hell it was. First sprint says to expect shortages. Okay, I'm fine with that. I mean, we all remember this shitshow. So then we find out that pretty much only best buy will be getting them in stock. Again, if you're like me, you've been checking your local best buy several times a week on any sort of news or information. Several times I was told to not worry about a line overnight; they did it with the blackberry storm and they only had one dude waiting, so I shouldn't expect to wait. Then, this past week, Sprint started telling people not to expect lines. Finally, engadgetmobile recieved leaked docs of all the best buys that are getting units, how many they are getting, how many are in transit, et cetera. So I say fuck it, i'll go at midnight, if nobody's there i'll go back again at 3am, if nobody's there i'll go back at 5am, and if nobody's there at 7am i'll start a line. I was there at midnight right on the dot, and there were 5 dudes, and sure enough, that leaked document from engadget said my store would only be getting 5.

 

 

Guess i'm stuck with this pile of pig vomit for a little while longer.
