Blah Blah Blah

Yo.

Today is a nothing post really. As I mentioned before, I'm in the midst of finals and any extra thinking is sure to cause a brain fart of some sort. So, I'll stick to blurbs today.

*So, how about that nonsense yesterday? It took every ounce of power inside of me not to 1) post my blog url as a comment to show them your feedback and 2) not to verbally rip them a new. I finally did comment on how his words were offensive and not well thought out. Of course I got attacked by one of his wack ass minions. But the author eventually replied and apologized for offending me and other women. What's sad is that, it wasn't until I commented that other females stopped co-signing with his stupidity and started saying how they really felt.

Sidenote: I've gotta plug Skinny's blog post about this. On point.

Anyway, the comment count has reached 105 and still growing. The author did admit that he was purposely trying to stir controversy, which is a slight relief but still doesn't justify for his ignorant slander.

But whatevs.

*I know you all have been hearing about how bad iWant an iPod. Well, I'm too broke to afford one and so is everyone else in my family. So, I bought the next best thing (well, not really, but it suffices). Just came in the mail today.

It's an 8GB Touchscreen Mp4 player I found on Ebay for like, 60 bucks. Yeah, I know it's no iTouch, but it's still something. I was walking around with a 512MB music player that I could barely fit 8 songs on, so this is a big upgrade for me. All of my so-called friends are trying to clown me for buying a generic player but I'm happy with it, so eff them.

Anway, it plays videos, music, has an eBook reader, holds pictures, etc. May not have a bunch of bells and whistles but it still serves its purpose. It has a 1 year warranty so if it decides to be as cheap as it was, I can just send it back to the manufactures for a replacement.


Yes, that is my cheap piece of crap phone next to my cheap piece of crap player.

Merry Chrismas to me!

**UPDATE**

I've taken the liberty of including this YouTube video for those of you who are wondering "what the hell this player is" (Charles lol).

Umm...what the hell kinda mp4 player is that? You sure its not an iPod Touch....cause I swear thats the box the Touch comes in...but it doesn't have a stylus tho....which brings me back to my first question...

What the hell is that?

I can't hate though, cause I need a new Zune like bad...I'm deleting songs to make room for new ones...

LOL - Good. Now, while you're getting your detective, could you verify that DMX was kidding when he said he didn't know who Barack Obama was, and had to have it explained to him?

I'd understand if it was the rocks talking, but still, damm.

@ charles: LOL it's a clone of the Onda VX747. it's a popular brand in japan. still, that doesn't quite answer the question of why it came in an ipod box lol. dunno.

@ tuot: thanks babe. i like it too. i was thirsting for a nano chromatic for a long time. but i figured 60 for this or 150 for the nano. i chose to save a little money.

@ clnmike: i'm a broke ass college student. this is all i can afford right now. i expect it to break down in about 4 months but it serves it's purpose until i can afford a better player.

@ strangetimes: hahahha! you know, read about that. that was some funny shit. sad part is, i think he was really serious. "that nigga name barack? what the fuck is a barack??" LMAO!

Okay...thanks for postin that, it explains alot. The UI looks kinda weird, but it gets the job done. And just between you and me...cause I'm a stout Apple hater cause my ipod gave me the sad face...I secretly want a touch...if it was like 60 gigs, I would so be all over it...

mwahahahahah fabuloustic knockoffs rule... cause they are cheap and delicious!

Bloggal said...

@ charles: exactly. does its job, right? lol

awww, you're apple gave you the sad face? sucks. i've heard all about that. i've had two nanos and they both just up and stopped working. i'm bad with tech toys so this was my best bet if i didn't want to waste any money.

@ qq: heheh, i'm the knock off queen, i tell you. it's sad really though. i bought some knockoff ughz before...not a good idea. my toes were frost bitten by the end of the day lol.

You wanna hear some ill shit?

My company gave us IPod touches (8GB) for Christmas. I sleep with that bitch. Love it more than I love my boyfriend. It's fire.

Spend every dime you could ever have and get yourself one. You won't regret it. I'll help your fund-- $20 coming from Glo- count on it!

You can surf the net, check email, and go hit up the itunes store. I live near a Starbucks so if I stand in the right place in my house, I can steal their WiFi... my neighbors are cheap fuckers, got their shit password protected.

Real talk, I have no idea how I've lived without mine all this time.

@ karrie b: i don't even allow myself to fantasize about the blackberry bold. i'm still sportin a krzr:-(.

@ nodays off: LMAO!!! okay somebody feels my pain! it's the worst thing when you have to start choosing which songs you wanna keep and have to take off. suuuuucks.

@ Glo: awwww, babygirl! seriously? nahhh...but, um, SERIOUSLY? lol

but for real, like i said about the blackberry, my imagination won't even stretch to an itouch. i can afford a nano at the most (not even that though). how much do touches run for anyway?

I love e-bay !I get dayum near everything from there.

Touches are pricey girl... I'm talking like $200-$300. The one I have be selling on ebay for sometimes as low as $150, but ya gotta act fast, and be a seasoned ebayer to scope out the deals. If little brother acts right, he got one coming in the summer. Mine holds up to 2,000 songs and videos. It's just too fun. I take it with me everywhere I go.

I also want a blackberry bold... but that ain't happening anytime soon.

Anyhow, I'll make the first contribution to Bloggal's Ipod Touch's fund! Got paypal?

Bloggal said...

@ youngblackbeauty: this was my first time ever ebaying and i have to say i'm really satisfied with the experience. definitely will use it again!

@ glo: yes babe, i do have paypal...but that is just too generous of you. i love you oodles for the thought though hun. seriously. OOOOOOOODDDDLLLESS<3!
