They are not listening to you. Too busy staring at their precious. Duh.



Anyhow, I wish you the best of luck in there, soldier. Just remember, there may not be a rescue team coming out to get you if you are stuck deep in iPhone territory.

I actually think Sarlacc is the one who does the trolling, he's way too smart and in control of his responses. I've gotten into it with him before, but I've realized he's just not that tactful. I have no issues with him.

Thanks for the words of advice sir....

but yeah the sad part is they were reading but they were just tooo engulfed in the different plastic options that they thought I was trolling....

its funny how Jupitersolo was calling me a troll and he doesnt even know the difference between RFID and NFC.....when I pointed that out, he was like "i know"....

man fans can get really annoying....

I haven't met him offline but from all accounts, he's a swell guy. Just doesn't translate well online sometimes.


I have no issues with him per se...but, he does get a bit over the top and makes things personal at times.

Debating over a cellphone is...well, somewhat unneeded. End of the day, it is a cellphone. Taking photos, surfing the web, playing games...whatever. Still a cellphone.

Getting WORKED UP over a cellphone and which brand is better? Really silly. We have people dying in Syria and starving and we have people here in NA fighting over a cellphone like it was their Mom who invented it.

What's even more pathetic is how some think having a particular brand inflates their self-worth and intelligence. It's just a cellphone, folks!


Don't get it. Sigh.

Well, our egos get the best of all of us. Anil and I, Chad and I, David and I, Whiskers and I...can't help it. Being called stupid or whatever takes us back to being 8 years old when the school bully called you a name or embarrassed you and you didn't do anything about it and then when you were older you just wished someone would come brush up on this chip on your shoulder so you could show that little bully what it's like to feel pain too.

haha....Jeremy, I think if you look in the broader sense (not sure what happened between you and the others) but I always check my ego at the door....I get personal (in a good way...that I want to help and at times I insists which people you barely know dont like).....

but well, we all live and learn....

Ego comes in when people dont want to accept and keep proving they are right....those people never learn since they feel what they know is the only way and is the right way....

I just feel, if people looked around, as yummy said, there are far more things to be more concerned about that a stupid phone launch event....now I feel dumb for getting dragged in that conversation

^ It's important to have an opinion and like a well-executed product. But, to get personal to the point of name-calling and etc.? Really, really, really not needed. There are more important things IMO.

It's just a cellphone. It's just a brand who wants your money. Period.

I probably have more knowledge about the hardware and specs on these phones than anyone here, from spec to platform, so I find it really comical to read some of the responses.

At the end of the day.. being such a fucking uber nerd .. I only use my fucking phone for calls, text and an occasional picture of food I'm about to destroy. IDGAF! and neither should any of you ritards!

I think you intend to check your ego at the door, but trust me, you don't. Almost NOBODY does.



and Maj, then go in there and lay your fuckin cyber dick on the table then. I wish I knew enough on THAT subject to put some of those clowns in their place.

I don't need to.. it's not like I make money on them by turning them off the kool-aid. Honestly, there are things I like about iOS and things I hate about Android. Regarding hardware.. give me a fucking break.

And if we're talking data.. ha.

My closest analogy to Mofo's post is when I read a forum and see fanboys argue about Japanese toy robots.


Seriously, they have no idea about toy robots. WROTE the book on toy robots.

majofo...remember this is my second time around doing this. I know to relieve the bushing by placing a jack under the LCA. This was simply seized just as the rear camber arms always are. My other cars damper fork bolts were not seized nor was the passenger side of this car. I tried absolutely everything there was to try.
