really? Well it is a funny place to keep it.
I kept my cat in the oven for 30 minutes, and now my pu55y is all dry.
1) Take to Apple Store
2) Admit you left it in rain
3) Accept new iPad for free
Case Closed
Has happened to several here. But, be truthful. Don't lie

Seriously though, you should give it a try. There have been people here who have recieved free replacements for out of warranty repairs. It could not hurt to try.
After 37 most wonderful years on a life sentence I would tell the wife it could happen to anybody. Let's go to the Apple Store in Kenwood pickup a new iPad 2 and have dinner at The Cheese Cake Factory. You know she's going to end up with a new one if she wants it so why beat yourself over the head about. This way I get the old iPad, stay in good with the wife and get my favorite dinner.

Damn you OP. I really hope your ipad is OK, but in future could you please be more careful with your topic wording. Now I can't get the damn thing out my head.
I shall spread the pain and suffering.

I'm not sure, since I have no diagnosis. But I do enjoy telling people my true opinion when they go as far as badmouthing their spouses online. I mean - as an alternative to encouraging OP to file for divorce due to trust issues. He might want to have his head checked as well in this case, but who am I to tell?
At the end of my last evaluation, I asked the shrink "When was the last time you ever went to see a psychiatrist?", whereupon he replied "Get out of here, you're sane."This conflicts with what you stated earlier about taking things literally. But by all means, I was exactly as serious as the OP - I'm not going to deny that.
I have never worked in the mall, but I used to work for an insurance company. I would sometimes arrange or attend meetings when people filed suspicious claims. In case it's a legitimate claim, you can't go too hard on the customer immediately (you want to keep the customer, right?). In the legit cases (and perhaps some of the non-legit ones), I would thank the customer for helping me clear things up, and there would be no hard feelings. In the rest of the cases, the (ex-)customer would more often than not leave my office in tears.

I said you meant what you said literally. How does that conflict with anything I stated previously?
You have previously stated that OP didn't mean it literally when he was writing about his suspicions, even though the line was written in clear text, with absolutely no signs of joking or sarcasm. No smileys, no /sarcasm-tags, there is no humor to be spotted anywhere else in his postings ITT, nor am I familiar with his style of writing. And you're writing that it's not to be read literally? Heck, if OP didn't mean it literally, one can just ignore my reply in the first place, which you didn't. Therefore it seems like you initially did take OP literally, but decided to "go with the flow" when the others didn't. Sheesh, do you want me to draw this up for you?
This is not about you writing that I meant this literally. This is about you writing it after stating that OP was joking. You seem very selective about what you take literally and not - and frankly, this seems just like a lame excuse on your hand for taking the piss.
Your first comment in this thread appears to be a detailed answer to the question of how one should interrogate their wife as if she were a child. Most who read this thread seem find it entertaining at how ridiculous your comments are. Take a look at the voting for comments 2 and 6 in this thread and see if you glean anything from the results. I'm done responding to you, as you simply don't get it. At first it was amusing, now it's just awkward.
Good that you have asked everyone who has read this thread about what they think about my comments. I appreciate your efforts. Thanks.
It only shows that my posting was controversial. I'm perfectly cool with that.
Yes, that's right. So next time you're going to take the $#!t on someone, make sure you're better prepared.

hey op. who cares about the stupid ipad. tell us how the interrogation went!
if the ipad is still working, could you put it up on youtube? we'll help you analyze the footage and give you a verdict on your marriage.
if your wife is an ipad-obsessed sociopath or a blade runner-like artificial lifeform, our analyses might be a little bit off, but at least it will be fun for all. unless she shoots you, of course. that's what happened to one of the dudes in decker's unit. anyhow, give it a try

Who cares? What matters is how OP read it. And if the line where he suspected his wife for doing it on purpose was only a joke, there's no reason for him to take my initial reply seriously anyway.
I think someone going out of their way to destroy something just so they can get a new one is a sign of immaturity.
