Well its about that time...leaving for basic in two days.
Good luck, man.
Good Luck man, from what I hear drill instructors will pick on any person who stands out, and will intentionally stick you in no win situations and you will be punished for it. Evidently keeping your head low and doing what you need to do is important.
This. Also, if one of your superiors ask you if you know how to drive a stick, say no unless you want to mop floors.
and spektur, weren't you a bit of a apple fanboy? and isn't mac's main selling point is the fact that it's sort of dummy proof?
Nah, not really. I get enthusiastic about their products from time to time (and I really do like my iPod Touch) but at the same time I love giving them well-deserved and heavy-handed criticism. Their arrogance pretty much demands it. When Apple and their fanboys try to pass off features as innovative, it helps when they actually
are innovative. A bunch of the major iOS 5 features are copypasta.
If anything, I'm probably a borderline Microsoft fanboy. Not enough of a fanboy not to recognize obvious faults in their products, but Windows has truly worked better for me than anything else in the past few years, and I am really excited for Windows 8, moreso than 7. And, well, I own a Windows Phone. Do I really need to go on? :p
