Zoon.
So it’s like this: I really like the Zune. Dro doesn’t, but he’s become one of those Mac fanboy clones that hates everything that Apple doesn’t do and can’t come to grips with the fact that Microsoft actually topped the iPod in features and usability. So his opinion doesn’t really count for jack anymore in this department.
I dig the big screen, I dig the interface, I REALLY dig the features (FM tuner for NPR, wireless sync, etc). I don’t like the PC software so much. The fancy little touchpad thing the newer Zunes have is very nice to use, but the fact of the matter is some kid in my area is selling his old 30gb for $100 (new 4gb Zunes are $150). I am having a difficult time resisting such a deal. It’s a brown one, the model that got all kinds of crap from people because it’s brown. Well, guess what, internet? I like the brown one. I think it looks fine. I might even think it looks kind of good. Frak off (oh god, I’m adopting Battlestar Galactica lingo and I’ve only watched one season).
So with 300 extra dollars burning a hole in my pocket and Gamestop not allowing me to put it down on next month’s 80gb PS3, the world is basically forcing me to do this and get a Zune. I’m also considering a digital camera, because it sucks not having one. None of this is set in stone, I still need to work out all the details for my summer semester funding and how much it’s going to cost to have the internets at home again. Finances are a pain. This would be much easier if I was just rich, because then I could buy all this stuff AND a Tesla.
In other news, Dro is coming up from the good ol’ cities tomorrow for the weekend, at which point there will apparently be a party. He’s fleeing the state in a month or so, which makes me think this might be the last time I see him for a long time. Remember Dro? He makes posts here sometimes, or he did until he got sick of me immediately posting after him and degrading them. We have a complex friendship. We bond over tasteless internet humor:
Yes I know, it’s a bad one. We discussed it. The LOLgas is just too grim and ironic to not find at least a little funny, though.
