I learned today that I have a blown fork seal. Got to the shop and a puddle was sitting on the ground. Don't know how the fuck that happened. FML

Is it dead? Are you replacing it, or waiting a week for the X to come out?

That "upgrade" shit if fucking stupid. They're making fucking dumptruck loads of money off of people's bills and they wont let you "upgrade" your phone within two years.

Let me upgrade my phone when ever the hell I want to and I'll keep paying my high ass priced bill.

90% of people dont clean their shit. other peoples results dont necessarily count.

imagine giant waves of people "breaking" their phones anytime the latest and greatest came out. imagine you only get 1-200 dollars back on all those 8-900 dollar phones.

You can't get a different phone through insurance so why would breaking your phone be mentioned. You don't go through the stores to get a broke phone replaced. You go through a 3rd party.

Latest and greatest dont come out as fast as you think. Say a new phone comes out every 6 months. Bill is $95 a month. I buy a new phone for $200 with renewing my 2 year contract. So I paid $200 and the phone really cost $600. So they're out $400.

New phone hits the store 6 months later. In 6 months I've paid almost $600. They've made their money off the phone and then some.
