I hate Cell Phone shopping, they make it so hard. You can't just go pick out a phone you have to consider all sorts of requirements and so on.

I've never had any trouble shopping for a phone.[/quote]

Uh well I am probably being a supreme cheapass, also are you on your own phone line or on a family talk plan? I am on a family talk plan and it pretty much excludes me from any deal that isn't on Cingular's website.
 
Oh, that blows. I'm on my own line.

Wouldn't being a cheapass make it easy? Just take the shit phone that you get for free. :lol:

My contract runs out with T Mobile in August. Going to buy myself a Sidekick once that happens. It'll actually end up being cheaper than my current monthly bill.

Well I want a Smartphone now so I am looking for the best deal on it. Also yes being on your own plan makes it much much easier, because for example my friend recently got a HTC 8252 which is an awesome smartphone for free with amazon when he renewed his contract. That phone with renewing my contract would cost me like 170 dollars.
 
I've been seeing these pain in the ass Eneloop ads (thanks AdSense!) on CAG forever now. However, looking into them I am kinda interested in them.

Does anyone have them? Know anything about these eneloop batteries?

I use 'em for everything video game wise. I've bought a bunch primarily for Wiimotes, but they are working very well with my 360 pad.

First off, you can use them with any regular charger (I think NiMH). Second, they hold a charge longer than other types of rechargables. I don't know how they do this, I just know that they do. Third, they are white with blue accents, so they match the Wii perfectly (though this isn't that big of a selling point). Fourth, they charge quick enough, but it's best to charge them up if you know you'll need plenty for an upcoming section. And finally, they last fairly long.

There are only two real problems. The first is that they have a lower mAH rating than some other AA batteries, which means they'll work for a shorter period of time. The obvious offset to this is that with other brands, they'll lose the charge over time sitting dormant. Point being that if you knew you were going to have four player (something), it's best to charge them up the day before. They will hold the charge for a long time and don't disperse energy that quickly, so they are really great for that.

The second problem is that they are kind of expensive. However, if you watch Circuit City, they go on sale repeatedly, probably every 2-3 weeks or so. If you can snag an 8 pack for less than 20, you're in really good shape.

I use them in wiimotes, wireless sensor bars, 360 controllers, TV remotes, and pretty much anything else. Really great.
 
Holy shit, Strell, are you a /b/rother?

HAHAHAH. I saw that post when it was first posted here and I decided to attempt the meme over there. fucking I can't believe you posted that image. My friend made that DIYDespair right next to me when I was posting the story.

I gotta keep posting it. I even made an ED entry on it, haha.

Awesome, can't wait.
 
[quote name='Temporaryscars']My phone came free. I'm kinda annoyed that cell phone companies don't tell you about the $10 extra you're charged each month in "other" fees.[/quote]

Well I could get a BlackJack 1 for free, but since I will have to keep that phone for the next 2 years, I think it might be better to get the second one.

You are 15 why the fuck do you need a smart phone?
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']Love seeing Futurama on this early. Is this a new intro? It seems similar to the movie's theme song.[/QUOTE]

What?! I haven't seen the movie yet.. but the episodes on Comedy Central have a different theme ???
 
[quote name='lilboo']What?! I haven't seen the movie yet.. but the episodes on Comedy Central have a different theme ???[/quote]
I think so. I've seen the normal intro enough that this seemed oddly different. The movie's theme is more of a longer, remix version of the normal theme song and this reminded me of that.

Edit: The college episode is on, which I love. "What do you call it?! Lite Brite! *shock*"
 
Am I the only one who is noticing this? Why is there so many people who just are *so* negative here? (Not this thread, CAG in general). Every single thread you read, it's the same people who go in say something negative about the subject OR the OP or both. It's actually kinda boring now. Is that the new cool thing? Does this make them superior? I'm just confused. Yet, this is all coming from the same community who raises 27K for Child's Play. Sociopaths I tells ya. Lots of 'em too!
 
Strell is fun to play COD with. He sucks at it, but it doesn't even matter.

I think i've found a proverbial can of Raid to use in here in case the OTT ever pisses me off.

Skip to 2:55 for the best part.
 
I'll get better. Once I figure out the basic rules and actually develop muscle memory on what buttons do what (as I'm still in a "fuck I meant to knife but I threw a grenade instead" mode), it'll be a little more even.

Also if I figure out how in the hell to do half the shit people seem to be doing. Like getting red laser sights, multiple grenades, and the ability to spawn grenades instantly after you kill them.

'Sides, as I mentioned up there before, I've retorts on the subject of the CAG crew and their comments. >:]

Well then, considering you have no fucking clue as to what you're doing, you're actually not that bad then. Though, you're a pro at poping up out of places and scaring the shit out of me. Kudos to that.
 
Unlock red dot sights by completing Marksman Challenges. Multiple grenades is a perk that you unlock pretty far down the line.

I dunno what the fuck you mean by "spawning grenades" though.
 
Well, what's martydom? I heard people talking about that, but I don't know what it is. Seems like it could be the spawn grenades thing. I'm talking I'd kill someone, and after I saw the little +10 show up, there's be a grenade on the ground, which would then proceed to blow me the fuck up.

Also I need to look into this custom classes thing. I like to play with rocket launchers. Are there those in Bass4?

Oh, I gotcha. Yeah, martyrdom drops a 'nade where you die. Shit's annoying as fuck. It's another perk.

RPGs suck, but they're a perk, if you really want to use them.
