Default stickin' it to the man, one trackball at a time...
I've been needing a new trackball/ retaining ring for my Pearl for a while now, and have discovered I'm far to lazy, cheap, and impatient to order one online.
This afternoon I was in the mall, and stopped in at the Bell store I deal with. I went over to the display phones and picked up a curve. Within about 30 seconds I had a sales dude all over me. I told I was just having a look, and the second he turned his back, I had the ring and tball out of the phone and in my pocket. A small part of me wants to feel bad for what I've done.... Honestly. A much larger part of me is enjoying the slick new trackball, and wants to brag about it on the internet, feeling a little smug about the ever so slight smiting.

Don't judge me....

That's not cool man. Now any new potential BB user that tries the demo device may decide it sucks and never get one.

What is also sad is, you are on the net bragging about it. To bad they didn't catch you.

Wow, that was quick!

I actually just made that up. I was curious how people would react... $3 trackball vs cell carriers which have been screwing is royally (at least in canada....). Little surprised at how quick and harsh that was.

Sorry guys, I was bored.

You were bored? Dude...you're a loser.
I'm not a fan of the cell rates in Canada either...and I'm REALLY not a fan of Bell. But come on...next time you're bored go find a new app to play with.

You ought to have your BB revoked.

Harsh crowd.... No more social experiments. Understood.


Although I have noticed people are a lot quicker to respond when they have a chance to put someone down than they are when they could help someone out. (not just here, vast majority of forums.)
