WHERE MY HOSE DRINKERS AT

I don't want to wear a fanny pack to carry my phone around, thats all

sorry if I don't want to wear cargo pants or jorts every day


even if this is the worst iphone ever it's still infinitely less shameful than using an android phone

i never asked for this
Watch chat: my wife got me a suunto core for my birthday and this thing is pretty cool. It looks nice and has some nifty features like altimeter, barometer, and compass.

I also can't have a phone at work so I like the watch to constantly check the time and immediately forget only to have to check again.

I have an iphone 4 and it works perfectly fine. I don't need my phone to do any wizard poo poo so if I can use netflix, imessage, and take mirror shot dick pics for the cloud I'm all set. Plus, Verizon says the only way I can get a new phone without losing my sick grandfathered in unlimited data plan is to pay full retail price. gently caress that noise, iphone 4 till I die son.

Good luck with that. As someone who rocked an iphone 3G until the 5 came out, I can assure you that performance turns to utter trash after just a couple IOS updates once your phone stops being supported. Like the iphone 4 and IOS 8. It won't be too bad until 9 drops next year, then you'll start hating it. By about 9.5 you'll be waiting for poo poo to load like Windows 7 on a goddamn PII.

gently caress you, got mine.

My disabled vet plates are personalized as such: 6FYGM9

They're free, never expire, and they give me Rockstar parking.

It's one of the few subtle "gently caress you's" I use daily. The others are far less subtle. I doubt a cop would even realize they're custom lol.

Are we going to address Meowlins' slow yet steady decline from Seamen Recruit, to Officer, to Testicular Ebola Patient 0, to Law Student, then to SA Moderator, and his heart warming rising up from that horrible tailspin to become a Canary Yellow Convertible Geo Metro Street Taco Vendor? I just got really loving high on life (bored) and watched "Lady Valor" on CNN a bunch of times in a row and I think the long Arc of Meowlins' sacrifices for this country and comedy beats some SEAL cutting his pud off and pulling off 6 inch heels with a crew cut.

I want meowlins to get his own AFN commercials.

I want me and Vic to make those ads.

They let you pay full retail and you didn't take it? The fees in the contract make it like 150% the cost of buying it outright, not to mention you own the phone so the carrier can't dictate poo poo regarding what you can do with it. I was loving pissed when Verizon wouldn't let me buy my android up front.

I'm not sure how paying anywhere close to retail price on a phone is a good deal. I don't see any unusual fees on my bill and we've been paying the same monthly price for the last 4 years across a couple different phones.

When I was looking at upgrading this spring my options were 1) free upgrade to iphone 5, lose current contract and unlimited data or 2) pay $600 for iphone 5, keep current contract and unlimited data. Both sounded lovely to me.

If you ever want to read a forum full of delusional people, go to the Crackberry forums. They think BB is going to be back on the rise any day now, and at least one person thinks some new BB phone will outsell the iPhone 6

When I did the math the contract plan was like 20$ or 25$ more a month the the same features prepaid.

He said Verizon, I'm taking about Verizon, it holds true up until the point you're splitting data rates between 3 different people on a shared contact

You didn't think they have you a reduced contract price out of the goodness of their hearts did you?

Edit: there are exceptions but for the most part financing something is always more expensive them purchasing it outright.
