security aside, the city apparently plans to shut down huge swaths of the transportation network and has no plan to deal with the logistical clusterfuck that will inevitably result so it's possible the trucks just wouldn't be able to get where they needed to go anyway

EVERY MORNING I WAKE UP AND OPEN PALM SLAM A WHITE WHALE INTO THE PEQUOD. IT'S HELL'S HEART AND RIGHT THEN AND THERE I STRIKE AT THEE ALONGSIDE WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER, ISHMAEL.
i have no idea if my 6s will actually get to me on friday and i have no pope to blame

still hasn't said it's shipped yet (just the 9/25-9/29 window) even though i ordered it about 45 minutes after pre-orders opened up. idk but it would be nice to have it friday instead of next tuesday

so i was gonna sell my 16gb 5 on ebay but i just got an offer from verizon to "recycle" for a $200 acct credit. my 5 is in decent shape but it's a refurb from asurion, has a couple small scratches and there's some purple blotch on the camera that i can't get rid of. looks like 5's are going for a little under $200 new on ebay. should i do the verizon thing ???????????

assuming you're staying with verizon, it's way less hassle imo. you'll be coming out ahead for sure

i just got my 6s case in from amazon and it appears to have a bit of a convexity to it

apple aren't makin people happy anymore, it's realy only people being "how can you not love what they do" without actually realised they've traded in an ideal and a vision for "what makes sense"
