Hello fellow techtipians, how's your week been so far? Get anything new? Have any dates? Eat any potatoes?

 

 

So far this week I got paid from selling 2 of my monitors, bought my a refurbished pb278q from newegg and actually ended up getting it 3 days earlier than shipping said I would, and it turns out it's in perfect condition!  I also got a cold, but it snowed 6 inches and it almost never snows here so I'm not to concerned about it xD.

 

I'm in love with it so far, I'll probably make a big review if I can get around to it.

 

 

 

So how is everyones week?

Not that great tbh, have been sick for the last 2 days, and school was a bit meh, like always.

Haven't got anything new but I have been bidding on an old steering wheel for Dirt 3 and showdown, and maybe Next Car Game if I end up buying it.

well if you think standing 8 hours in a bullet proof box, opening doors for people you can't understand, because of a language barrier is fun. then i have a pretty good week only because i like AC IV :D

Get well soon :)

 

To the OP, mine's been kinda meh. Ok I guess. Still looking for jobs after being fired from sales and stressing about university applications. On the bright side though, my new Roccat Kone XTD mouse that replaced my MX518 is a joy to use :D. Found my next favourite song which is a plus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlD213-FOp0)

Terrible.

 

Got so cold most of the people here lost water because pipes froze completely, and then the roads turned to ice slides and people still speed by my house probably high or drunk as they usually are—which endangers me and my house. As if I need some drunken baboon crashing through my house because 1) they can't drive 2) can't put the bottle down and 3) is too stupid to know any better.

 

And then someone had the nerve to attack my mailbox because teenagers this day and age are absolutely stupid. "Durr I think it is cool to break people's stuff 'cause mommy and daddy pampered me too much!" Well guess what asshole, you only knocked it down and I caught you. How about I beat your 2014 Ram 1500 with a bat and see how you like it? I'm sure that lovely red wouldn't look so lovely after I'm done with it.

 

Thank god I have music to calm me down.

Jut finished me first week back at school, oh how dreary and shit it is, luckily it's at an end, only 8 more weeks left... But apart from that, it was alright

speaking of new mouse, my right click barely works anymore, and razer won't replace it w/o a receipt.  Went to fry's electronics the other day to see if they had my receipt on file, because I paid in cash they dont have one :/

 

now I gotta figure out what I want to replace it with, definitely not razer >.<

Well, I can vouch for Roccat being a good brand. Of  course it all depends on the user.

Which mouse did you get?  I have really big hands so I can't use anything smaller than a razer mamba, otherwise my hand just engulfs it lol :(

 

I've heard steelseries sensei is good, there was one in a box I put my hand over, it was a bit small but I wasn't really in the mood to take the box apart in the middle of the store lol

I need one with ~5500 dpi aswell, (I'm weird yeah lol xD)
