Got me one of those new-fangled "Ipads" yesterday.

Rate: 2 Flag

So I got up purdy early on Saturday to get to the Wal-marts to buy my Ipad.  I was expectin a long line, but twernt much of a line to get in since it is a 24 hr store.  Anyway, I pass the grocery store, clothing section, and automotive, to get to the "technical" section where these dohickies and gadgets are sold.  I ask the guy for one of those new Ipad nanos that plays the music and whatnot everyone has been yammerin on about on the TV.  My first impression, was "dern this thing is small"  and "why is it only 50 bucks?"  You betcher-ass I didnt hang around to ask "Skippy" who was helpin me out though... I got outta there fast before they realized their mistake. 

Anyway, so I get my new Ipad home, take off the wrappins... for about 20 minutes.. I finally get to the damn thing and it aint no bigger than a billy goat's dick!  What in tarnations?  I plug in the "earbuds" (I dont know anything bout no earbud, but I do know me sumpin about Air Bud... I own 5 tapes) and put it in my ear.. I turn it on, and I dont hear a goddamn thing...  At this point I am pissed, I thought I was gonna listen to some goddamn music!

I march right back to Wal-marts and give Skippy a piece of my mind!  Not only does he say that there is no music on it, he says I have to have a mother-lovin computer too!  At this point I am hotter than a whore in church... I tell Skippy... "OOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhhh... I see how it is.  You give me a 50 dollar Ipad nano, and now I have to buy a goddamn 1000 dollar computer to play the damn thing!"  (in case you are wondering I am writing this at the library, I dont own no goddamn computer!)  Then Skippy tells me, not only do I have download a program and buy music too.  At this point I just about blacked the f*ck out with rage and bewonderment... I say "Skippy, what kind of f*cking racket you got going on here... I have to buy a goddamn computer and 99 cents per f*cking song?  Who the f*ck do I look like Bill Gates?"  After that there is a long silence and then Skippy says, "Yeah and its not an Ipad nano, its and Ipooood nano..."  I didnt even know what the hell to say at that point, I was hotter than half-bred fox in a forest fire.  I just left and put my Icrap in the Itrash.  So here's my review:  Dont go to Walmart, and dont get an Ipad/Ipod!  Its a fucking racket!
