I was at work last Sat night and noticed a box between 2 dock doors. I wondered why a printer was being shipped back. I opened it up to make sure it was ok and it was a G5 tower. The poor thing was just tossed in the box by our customer with almost no packing. I repacked it and sent it on its way but it is amazing how people treat their computers.

You repacked it! I would have taken that! And then I would've had some words with whoever put the G5 in their.

Watch out..."Wow!" threads are harshly condemned by the MacNN staff around here.

It's usually people with too much money, and not enough appreciation for their (or others) belongings.

Like 16 year old kids throwing their cell phones.

Dude you should see the 20 year old loser who was in dorm this last year, took his cell phone and chucked it against a brick wall... later he bought a RAZR on ebay. Rich kid, regularly said he had more money in the bank than me. That said he was probably wrong as I already had next year's tuition in the bank... after I pay that though I'll be poor

If he bought his RAZR off ebay, then he's not so rich.

I've smashed my phone off the sidewalk. Doesn't make me a loser, just means I was really pissed off atm.

You'll learn - boyfriends can make you this pissed.

Nope. Only threads asking for help with stupid titles.

That's not what tooki said:

Cody, Pi is absolutely right. Please follow the posted rules and use good thread titles.

Here's my "Wow!" thread where I get reamed by everyone - including tooki who most specifically does not like "Wow!" threads, apparently.

I bow to your superior documentation, Cody. But I typically leave Lounge threads alone, even if they have enormously stupid titles, because the worst get either ignored or the poster gets reamed by other members.

Cody Dawg · Jun 21, 2006, 06:49 PM

No, we bow to tooki!
