getting my blackbook 2mrw!

[GoCubsGo]

I too read your entire recap, and I gotta say that I haven't laughed that hard in a while. It seems as though marriage proposals on this thread are so yesterday so I won't bother going there, but I will tell you that you Jessica are clearly the only reason I am refreshing/reading this thread.

You have a huge fan in Canada!

Good send me some syrup and those maple candies. You want to love me feed me bitch! 🙂

Well, but I have some questions..

1. How did you get the govt. discount?
2. When are you getting your macbook?
3. Which macbook did you get?
4. Have you thought of getting photoshop? I think you may like it


I think thats it for now, but when you are going to step up to a macbook pro or another mac, please let us know. This time, at least 2 weeks in advance, multiple threads each day and a countdown timer.

Enjoy the macbook!

I nearly answered but someone funnier than me posted before me and referred you to my recap. 😉

See below for the answer to all your questions.

hahaha I swear you're hilarious!

My stomach hurts and I have gotten back in the chair after reading Jessica's play by play recap. Very, very funny.😎

Hey, how come no one congratulated me on getting my new shiny charcoal grey PowerBook 180 that I did not get a discount on that I bought in the state of Arkansas and it cost in excess of $4,000.00.🙄

No on congratulated you because they are out buying or renting (depending upon their financial status) tuxedos for the apparent weddings.

Hallelujah! This must be the most controversial, and critically acclaimed MacBook (black at that) EVER. And what do we get? Two Micro, Tiny, Nano-metric, hideously small pictures...one of the Macbook itself on a desk and the other one I can't remember because it was so uninteresting. Whats the big deal about taking pictures of your MacBook anyways? They all look the same...clearly the added value of your tax free macbook + free printer! + iPod dock + Photoshop (which you don't even know how much it costs, or probably how to use it, which is cool anyways, because nobody does but having it gives mad street creds) + AppleCare for your birthday makes a difference though.

oh boy, you're already a legend and you don't even know it. I propose we make one of his threads a sticky note (I vote for the one he asked where he could get "Thread Title 1.01").

@Jessica, you sound so much like my english teacher (whose name is, coincidentally, Jessica...xD). I know I will probably break your heart, but I can't marry you *makes dramatic pose* for my heart belongs to someone else *tears*. I hope you can forgive me.

I couldn't get a free ipod i'm not a college student. Its 5th I got it a year ago. I have black video I got from like 2006 in april. It just a regular black ipod video! I like it and take it everywhere. I'm gonna change the format though with my macbook to mac

jessica, how can you do a play by play replay without covering the trip to the bank when they swithed accounts to a new bank (forgot name of said bank and don't feel like going back) and they found $500 of his modeling money when he was a little kid and did modeling with toys.

and if he could get the ipod, he was going to be generous and give it to his little sister who has an old ipod.

Can't believe I actually read through all of this ... today must really be a slow day.

Ditto......seriously weird thread.

I love my Black MacBook. Was very satisfied with my purchase. I am however upgrading to a 2.2 GHz MBP SR and I simply cannot wait for it to ship!

 

[triddent222]

Ouch

Oh, It was a compliment 🙂. She's one of the smartest people I've met, and she's only 23 years old (i think)..unless you're way younger, in which case, it's a relief to know the newer generations has some hope after all (It could be argued though...just look at the OP... >.>)

Anyways, Just wanted to let everyone know Apple is rumored to be renaming the iPod...the new generation will be called the iPod Video! < yeah, thats right... Video! (notice exclamation mark). Of Course, further generations will be called Ipod Video!!, iPod Video!!!, iPod Video !V, and lastly, TEH APPLE iPOD VIDEO!one!.

Oh, c'mon. Admit that you are a bit of a reality show junkie and this thread is very similar to Simple Life 😉

 

[sblasl]

Anyone know if the iPod Dock that came with the 4th Generation 40GB iPod will work with APPLEFAN8's iPod. The dock does not have the S-Video out connection.

[RoadieJodie]

in case you were wondering but on pack 4 there is another proposal that i may have to consider as a booty call

May I ask who this would be? 😀

I think everyone in the office was looking at me rather odd, trying to figure out what was so halrious about a wall of text.

Today I took out some ram from a powerbook and put more in and then i started it but it didnt turn on so i put the old ram in and turned it on but it didnt turn on so i took out the battery and plugged it in and turned it on but it didnt turn on so i put the new ram in and then my dad from delaware called to say he was going to buy me a Macbook Pro with his goverment discount but i already have one but its a core duo so anyways when i put the new ram in it still didnt work why does it not work i think the grad student killed it and not me because i have PS CS3 and Acrobat 8 and i got them for free with my dads who is from delaware government discount

Its time to go home 😛

haha that is funny after all. Since I don't go back and read my posts, reading yours actually made me giggle...in a booty call sorta way.

 

[RoadieJodie]

Bowchicawowwwow.

OP: Wheres those extremly detailed, high res photos of your new government discount macbook we were promised??

 

[anirban]

...Applefan has a dad who is a State Police Officer who gets a government discount on macs who went to a drag race in PA over the weekend I guess it was we weren't really told but he drove 600 miles with his son who is 16 who is a junior in high school who has anxiously been awaiting a blackbook but could not go the other day due to the 600 mile drive and his dad the state police was sleepy, not just any blackbook the one where he will get it in delaware and not pay any sales tax because that is how they roll in the great DE and then he gets this discount from his dad because his profession is something in government and thus the government discount now he was going to get a mbp but then his dad and mom said no f'in way kid ..

..itunes card blackbook and so in closing, in the event you all weren't really paying attention i hope my recap my inconsistent use of proper grammar, the lack of periods, and the large run on sentence that probably lost half of you really catches you up to speed.

What the frack Jessica!?!? How can you come up with this stuff?

Can I have the last 6 minutes of my life back?😀

(great write up, although the sentence ran for way too long... a little punctuation here and there might have helped!)




APPLEFAN: Please make this thread worthwhile by posting some highres pictures of your esteemed macbook pro

Oh he doesn't have the macbook pro hes got the blackbook that he got with his dads whos a state police officers discount and in 2 years for college he will get the macbook pro with his dads discount and probably another free printer with a discount too cuz his dads a police officer



😉

😉

...and all of that will work great with the iPod dock that goes with his BLACK 5G iPod video! He probably got that with his dad's government discount!!!!! 'Specially 'cuz he didn't have to cash, like, $1300 worth of checks and give the money to his parents to buy it after driving 600 miles in a weekend to 2 drag races so that he can get Photoshop CS and run it on his Blackbook that he will use for two years until he goes to college and gets a MBP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then when he has his MBP that be bought in Delaware (tax free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) using his dad's government discount he'll finally be able to run the app of his dreams: Thread Title Writer 2.0 with the Exclamation Point Editor/Spelling and Grammar 1.1 plugins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Back to a grown adult writing--this is one of the funnier threads I've ever read online. Of course, NOTHING can compare to THIS one since that thread is a legend that has lasted a bit longer than the OP wishes it had...😛

Sorry, my mistake! somewhere along the lines, I thought that since there was a huge discount involved, along with no taxes, I was expecting him to jump on an MBP (seemed like he could have gotten the MBP for like $800 or something outrageously like that).

Now did he really drive over 600miles to get to the great DE, just so that he can save on tax? Whoa- this guy's a bada$$!

No. You seriously didn't pay attention in class did you?
He drove 600 miles to pa to go to two drag races with his dad who is a state police officer who gets a government discount on apple products but the 600 mile drive really tired old state police officer daddy out so going to DE was not an option the other day he had to wait then he waited and at 9:30 am he and his dad who is a state police went to DE to buy a blackbook not a macbook pro because his parents said no f'in way kid and told him when he goes to college he can get one but then as you can see college is a far way off we have some emotional maturity that would need to take place as well as having the ability to write effectively two things in which i do not see much from him so he gets the blackbook with a government discount and further the savings by getting it tax free all this was done by driving to a state that is 45 minutes away from him i see you failed geography just like me but whatever right who cares and who needs it now next time i hope you find the time to pay attention.

 

[danny_w]

Ps cs3 retails for 650

If you are a student you can get CS3 Design Premium Suite (PhotoShop, InDesign, Illustrator, Flash, Dreamweaver, and Acrobat) for $590, or Photoshop alone for $290. Prices are for AcademicSuperstore, but others are similar.
