Meh nobody got hurt, i have a new window now..so really now its just the cost of the ipod and gps...both of those combined dont cost as much as Jing's books...also...Jing havent you learned the books are unnecessary 90% of the time? i think i used about 1 per semester. I wrote a major paper on a book I never bought and got an A

[Jackal]

Dude, watch what you say. He's asian, they need books.

[Jing]

I find that for courses such as Organic Chemistry or Pharmaceuticals, having something like the textbook to refer to and study from is fairly useful. You're constantly diving into the book for references and etc.

Either way I ended up getting them from half.com instead of the school bookstore which saved a decent deal of money.

[Oznogrd]

once again, i never used my books for reference...thats what the interwebz is 4

Getting textbooks off the internet and then trading them back in for more than you paid is delicious. It convinces me I made money, so I splurge half of it and then realize it's not entirely money that I made.

By the way. In grad school you get some books from time to time that are actually vital to the classes. (And nice to keep. But also the profs are better and just scan from them and put stuff up in PDF, so everyone wins.) In undergrad, yes in hard sciences there's a high chance of needing the textbook, of course not in soft sciences. I wouldn't say never simply because of that lone fool who uses it as a crutch for their inability to teach. But close enough.

Okay, so it's not a lone fool.

And any professor who requires (or only places on their order list) an unbound book (with a shitty required CD) should be arrested and given the death penalty. And it's one of the few people I would give the death penalty. I won't accept it for anyone who hasn't killed over a hundred people for example.

I couldn't agree more.

Shin splints are fucking bullshit.

I hate the IB.

[Jackal]

I love Kate Beckinsale and everything, but if that bitch flashes in front of my screen one more time, I am about to jizz all over her face.

[J@3]

Why do people report me for things I'm one of the people who review the reports.

Also I got bored and changed my name. It will more than likely change again in the near future.

[shadowgrin]

I thought it was a bot at first (blackplague). Then with the recent change again I thought you were drunk since the style reminds me of the crackheads' usernames in the patching sections.

[Lean]

Remix patches from Jae?

[jettdaking!]

nope. he changed his name to 'messiah'

[jettdaking!]

wtf! paper-jamming-bitching-bullshit-printer strikes again! thank lord i fixed it

[dopeboy]

I broke my hand yesterday during the basketball practice. It hurts and it's purple. Enough said.

[Modifly]

I'm sorry to hear that. Get well soon man.

Fifa demo is 2.15 gig. It better not suck.

[Srbija]

2.15GB?

For the PS3 it's only 1GB and I must say it is well worth it. It's way more than just an updated roster of the game, everything feels way better than Fifa 09. Can't wait until the game is released.

[dopeboy]

I'm sorry to hear that. Get well soon man.

Thanks, man. The good news is that might not be broken, just fractured (might - i haven't been to x-ray yet). Since I've played hoops with broken wrist, it doesn't seem that serious anymore, at least for me.

i hate mtv...i was on there for about 30 seconds on their true life retrospective behind the scenes thing tonight. Not only do i look like a show offy prick: but they reinterview a guy that was addicted to porn and not me...awwwwwesome.

[shadowgrin]

Porn > you

[J@3]

Should've told them you were addicted to porn. "I have no legs and am addicted to porn" I'd watch that.

[shadowgrin]

Better yet, a fabricated story of how porn caused you to lose your legs.
It tugs the heart and scandalous at the same time.
