I actually think #19 is funnier.

I tried my hand at pool again last night and remembered why I hate the game. Also, played some ping pong and remembered why I loved the game.

Which type of pool? I like them both, but I think you're on about the one with the table :P

I had no clue that there was a different type of pool. I'm talking about the one on the table. What's the other type that you are talking about? Pocket pool? xD

Yeah, but it's a little more enjoyable in the summer - swimming pool?

Barcelona was pretty cool, nice to be back in England though.

That's usually the catch with holidays :(

Since it's July now, I now count down to my birthday on the 12th. Although 19 is the least special age yet for me, I'm still going to count down how many days left until I'm no longer 18. That's what I've done for most years when it was the start of July.

Only slightly. The fro could resemble other things such as frog, frost, etc. :P

I actually think that FAB is the only aura that I have never used.

For my main account, fab will be the aura I will NEVER EVER use! I've yet to use dark on this main, but I much prefer light on the redesign, except for certain levels where I'll be evil. I don't mind dark but it's not best suited for me on this account.

Welcome back NEVR. Good to hear you had a great time at Barcelona. :D

I know i probably asked this before, but, iPod Touch, worth $320? I only want the 8gb, need pro's and con's. My little 4gb 2nd gen Nano is starting to die/fill up.

I think they're worth it -- I have a 16GB one and it's lasted me nicely for the past 2 (almost, I think) years. Never had any problems with the old beauty either, at all.

Unless you're interested in the apps (don't get me wrong, they are cool, my friend's iPod Touch is full of awesome little minigames) I wouldn't really recommend an iPod Touch, just because of the hefty price tag.

Just get a regular iPod Nano (if they come in 8GB) or alternate brand. Creative Zens are worthy of rivalling iPods in terms of UI and such. Not quite as refined as the iPod but still damned good.

The apps. are one main reason i want it...even though my phone can do most of it, just lacking a touch screen.

I was thinking of doing this as well, and i know how reliable and durable Creative products are. A new Nano could work out for me as they're pretty cheap now (i.e, $170)...but i want free apps and touch screen >:C

It depends how much you want those features. If you really want them and feel the iPod Touch is worth that much, I'd say go for it. Personally, I'm not too bothered about the features the iPod Touch and iPhone have, which is why I went for an iPod Classic in the end.

Plus touch screens, bleh. Can't use them easily.

The fingers you have used to dial are too fat. To order a special dialing wand, please mash the keypad with your palm now.

Im not a fan of touch screen myself. They tend to stick to my fingers. Also everyone I know has a cracked/broken screen on their I-Phones/Touches cause it only takes one drop to fuck em up from what ive seen. poor little things are sjut to fragile for soemone like me who like to play catch with my phone or practice Hacky Sack Stalls when im bored.

dams forgot this place was still here <3

Well, I just wrote up a fairly large comment on some of the problems with the iPhone, before realising that you said iPod Touch. -_-

I agree that the Touch's apps are nice, but they aren't lifesavers or anything most of the time. You could easily find better and longer lasting games with Flash and internet access. And considering that most smartphones are looking at a Flash 10 beta this fall (not the iPhone though), access to Flash games while on the go isn't too far away.
Plus, most of the good apps come with a price tag.

If you do decide to look beyond the apps, go with what BBM said. The Nano is a nice buy, and the Creative Zen is certainly capable enough to rival the iPod, while being set at a lower price. SanDisk is certainly worth looking at too, especially the Sansa Clip if you love your sound quality!

Speaking of touch screens, i've been down to the phone shop today, looking for a new phone, and i've got my eye on the LG Arena. It's quite the sexy gadget and has alot of cool shit, not to mention a decent 5MP camera and 8GB memory.

It will set me back 35EUR for the phone, plus a year and half contract of 35EUR a month. I usually spend between 30-40EUR a month anyway, so i don't really mind.

And with the mass number of golden aura's that post in this thread you need a couple of us regular guys in here to brighten things up every now and then. ;)

Ah, yes that kind of pool too. I've went swimming perhaps 5 times this summer. Saturday I'll be swimming here at college and because I'm doing it with the students that I work with here I get payed for it.

Nice to have you back NEVR. Happy you had a good time.

Also, everyone else is on the subject of cell phones, but I don't own a cell phone, never have owned a cell phone, and probably won't ever own a cell phone. I personally just don't have a need for one, but I could see where people do. Saves money too. :P

At 7/2/09 06:50 AM, SpeedMetalSandwich wrote: but i want free apps and touch screen >:C

The apps are pretty cool, but you have to search out the ones that are free, and most of the better ones you have to pay for. They aren't really expensive for the most part though; usually it ranges from about £0.50-£5.00 for some pretty cool ones (I think I saw The Sims 3 for around a fiver).

But... that being said, if you're ONLY getting it for the apps, I can tell you now that the novelty will most definitely wear off. I was excited about upgrading my iPod Touch software (which cost around £5 in the first place) and getting me some hella-cool apps, but TBH my excitement was short lived on that front.

Basically, it's down to you. The iTouch is a great little gadget, but you have to ask yourself if you're gonna like it enough to justify paying that price tag.

I don't think I've dropped anything hazardous directly onto the screen, or vice versa, but I've dropped my iTouch 2 or 3 times and it's been OK. The most recent drop was actually pretty bad -- the damn thing fell out of my pocket when I was out for a run. Still seemed to hold up nicely after that though; hasn't given me any trouble since.

I went about a month without a phone towards the end of uni, and I hated every second of it. It's so much easier for me to have a phone in the lifestyle that I lead, and having to resort to shouting out of windows or spontaneously showing up on someone's doorstep without knowing if they're actually in or not starts to grate after a while.

To each his own though.

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. I don't know how many times that I've walked into the cafeteria, had no clue where my friends was sitting, and instead of calling them I'd have to walk around until I found where they were sitting. Or when in a mall or similar type of store and I can't locate my friends or anything like that.

Going for a ride and deciding to check if one of my friends are home, but I usually end up going out of the way and they aren't there, etc..

I can use my girlfriends phone though, which is that Iphone thing, whenever I need to call someone or call home. I rarely use it though and whenever I do it's when people are calling her to get to me. I still don't think I want one though. Was just never a cell phone kind of guy and since where I live is so small it doesn't take more than 5 minutes to check if someone is home or something like that and I don't mind doing a little extra "work".

Hm, here it's so hot that when I go to sleep I tend to wake up in the morning not being able to breathe and I have to get out of the bed and go to the window. It's extremely hot when your bed is lofted right next to the ceiling, but we aren't allowed to put them down. The best I can do is put the fan right next to me on the bed and half the time I just kick it over.

Man, I'm surprised you could go without a mobile phone. I always need my phone whenever I'm outside just incase someone needs to say something to me or if I need to let my parents know if I need to be picked up from anywhere.

Yep, it's been far too hot here this week. If it could be a bit cooler, that would be fine. Even so, this weather just makes me wish we were in winter since I can adapt to winter much easier than summer.

God you guys suck, I've been out sunbathing all week.

I dunno why, but the heat here never sems to be as pleasant as it ias abroad -- it's always too stifling.

Sunbathing in Barcelona pwns sunbathing in England ;P

lol at you guys complaining about English sun. Try living in South Spain for a few years. I know it's no where near as hot as some places, but it's alot hotter than back home. Especially after 9 hours straight work - you would kill for a cold shower.

I already got 'Truck drivers arm'. On my left arm ofcourse, seeing as i drive a left-hand drive car and lean my left arm out the window.

BECKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I went to sandals for a week. all my alcoholic drinks were included for the entire week. I could walk up and ask for anything and didn't even have to tip the bartender...plus, swim-up bars in the pools.

Good lord. Either Barcelona is twice as expensive as the rest of Spain or they just took advantage of you being a tourist.

I've been there once and i don't remember it being that expensive :/
