Small to start with, but im just warming up…
Now i dont know why people usually start blogs. I decided to start one this grey evening in July because i want to vent about things. I have been told i dont like anything or anybody. Mention a celebrity and i could go off on a rant about them for a long period of time, and thats no good to anybody. But i do like some things, and my blogs wont all be about rants. Hopefully. I just think that some things people should learn from, and change for the better, other things people should learn to live with, and other things people should just leave the fuck alone. Oh yeah, and sorry for all the swearing in advance.
Now recently, ive had quite a few things that have really got on my tits. The most recent is a rather annoying Microsoft fiasco, involving my 18 month old Xbox 360. Now i dont want to get into a PS3 vs 360 row, but 360′s are better. Now. I recieved my 360 free with a phone deal from a company we will call P4U, and i was ecstatic because it was free and my parents were paying for the phone. So i recieved it through the post and it was broken, i.e. 3 red rings of death, so much argments with P4U ensued and eventually, after about 3 months i got a working one. Now back to 2009. In march, i finally got round to asking Microsoft to repair my xbox which had been freezing for the past 2 months or so. It was out of warranty, of course, so i had to pay the best part of £75 to get it shipped to Frankfurt, have it repaired, then have it sent home. Which i didn’t really like that much, because all new 360s were getting 3 year warranties, so why shouldn’t mine? And why does it have to go to fecking Frankfurt? Couldn’t it go somewhere that would cost me less? But anyway, i accepted Ballmer‘s bullshit and sent my xbox off, which was repaired and sent back to me withing a week. Ace, i thought.
Flip to 2 months later, and Call of Duty:World at War starts to play up, freezing during singleplayer. So i switched to Xbox LIVE and loved every minute of it. But then it starts to happen on every game. And all the time. And i started to wonder what Steve and his German engineers had done to it, because it wasnt in a hot place, it was well ventilated, it doesnt get too dusty and none of the disks are fucked, so what was going on? So even though they renewed my warranty, and its all for free, i have wasted X amount of pounds on Live subscriptions and other stuff, all to have my wonderful white box blow up in my face again. Surely it should have lasted at least another 6 months before breaking? Well i want Bill Gates back.
My next port of call is women. Yes women. Cant live with them, cant live without them. Im in my very late teens, and i think ive seen everything that a woman can throw at us men, but still they keep popping up with suprises. I’ve had pregnancy scares, limpets who wont let anything go, ones who lead you on ALL the time, and then a new one recently. The first is attention. Some girls want attention all the time, from everyone. Others dont want any, and the rest want a strange combination of the two. [EDITED FOR HEALTH REASONS] Frustrating. ARGH.
Not too short, and quite disjointed, and not very good tbh, but im sure i will get better as time wears on…
comments are appreciated if anyone other than myself reads this, anything relating to involved subjects, i.e. similar experiences, advice, etc.
