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:

"Ring-tone revenues in North America totaled $94.3 million in 2003, and they're expected to jump to $116 million in 2004"

and to think that money could be going to say oh i dont know.. illiteracy? hunger? aids???? :mad:
