so today i get my long awaited package from microsoft....yet again. i instantly open it up and take a whiff of the "New Electronics Smell"(yes, i love to do that..." big whoop, wanna fight about it!?") i firstly look at the manufacturing date...WOOHOOO! 8/16/2009! NEW! after a little more digging around and research i discover, however that they sent me a first gen 360!!! the same that had failed me most epically only a month after the 3 month warranty expired! here we go again.

you know that they just use some kind of spray for that "new electronics" smell.

NUCLEARWINTER · Nov 7, 2009, 09:54 PM

if that's the case, i want it as an air freshener. (OMG IDEA!)

SeraphicSorcerer · Nov 8, 2009, 10:56 PM

And not only were you cheated on, but it was with your wicked xbox stepmother, microsoft!

*cries*

MS. Microsoft is a vengeful waif indeed. she is cruel, and will break your heart just when you think you are safe. she offers you enjoyment, and eye-candy. but instead delivers only pain, and woe.
