Default Got a new TV, YAY! Its cracked, DAMN!

Damn man, just got done setting up my office so I could hook my new Sony Bravia up and play some HD movies with the HDMI media player my old man got me.

So I rearranged, set everything up, took the TV out of the box, hooked it up...and it looks like someone hit it with a baseball bat. Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. Fuck.

I've got the receipt...but there's no way to prove it was like that when we bought it...so we'll see. It also means standing in the return line for like an hour and possibly having a faceoff with management. Fuck.

Oh well, I'll go back to the living room and watch my wife play Dragon Age Origins on the Xbox. Turn the Xbox on....RED RING OF MOTHERFUCKING DEATH!!

Goddamnit. Is this because I don't believe in Jesus? Cause I swear I can be converted...

Wow!!! That sucks bro! I'm sure that they'll take your word for it...is there any damage on the box? Oh and since it's Christmas, I'll leave the XBox thing alone for now....

I hope your exchange goes well, man. Bummer about the Xbox. I am definitely never getting one of those. Of the newer consoles, I already have a WII, and I might get a PS3...but the red ring of death seems to pop up more often than I'm comfortable with.

Hey do you have the Nyko Perfect Shot pistols? If not, I suggest them for games like Chicken Blasters and House of the Dead. Way better than fucking around with the Wii Zapper.

There is absolutely no damage on the box. I'm not sure if that helps or hurts my case...we'll see.

As far as Xbox...this is my second one. Microsoft replaced my first one a few months ago. Its cool for gameplay and Xbox live....but the reliability is a bad joke.

Dude, I HAVE a kid, I'm not a kid. What the fucking hell are you talking about?

I have the sports disc. I may have bowled maybe ten times.

This concludes my level of video game give-a-shit.

Yikes! It was just a question, I wasn't aware that playing video games was so frowned upon here...

The government doesn't regulate them enough for his liking.

Walmart is pretty good about exchanges. They rather just take a minor hit and make you happy and get you out of there and have you come back another day and buy more stuff.

Nah, just kidding a little. I'm an old fart, and am not really from the Nintendo Generation...
