The off topic thread

Books I got from Amazon recently had a giant crease in the middle which I wasn't too happy with.

Can't you complain and get a refund or ask for a new copy?

 

[Latro]

Pretty sure Amazon will give you a new copy SM.

Well I find that out now, hey?

What do I have to do to get new copies? It's only the paperbacks, so will they transfer half my books?

I'm already reading one so I don't wanna have to give it back.

I once complained I had not received a book and they automatically sent another copy. I got the book the day after they shipped the second copy.

I would complain about the condition of the book and see what they say.

 

[Cooldude]

Did you sell the 2nd copy on ebay?

 

[Latro]

Gave it to my brother.

Had to factory reset my phone and think I've lost my Clash of Clans account. Devastation.

It's a game on your phone, not sure how that adds to my nerd-factor lol. Does playing Flappy Birds make you a nerd?

It might if i'd ever played it...

Eh was an example not a specific lol. Rephrase, does playing a game on your phone when you're bored make you a nerd is what I meant. It's just a phone game that has a progression that is very time consuming. Like CandyCrush or whatever it's called that I've never played.

Haven't played that either, to be fair I had the Star Wars books in my head as I was writing the comment. Just sounded like something nerdy, my apologies.

It's not a WoW sort of thing. I thought that by giving the context that it was a phone thing would reduce the geek element, clearly not haha.

Funnily enough plenty of people on here (BF, not Assoc. Football board) seem to have read them, so it's not as rare as you might think.

Well the internet does tend to attract that stereotype. On a forum with 100k+ members, I'd be very surprised if you couldn't find quite a few who had read them. Doesn't stop it being nerdy though

There's a reason my anthem during high school was 'White and Nerdy'.

Never been one for games on my phones, had Words and Chess and a few others, but rarely played them.

Im a sucker for Candy Crush. Good time killer. When I run out of lives on Candy Crush, usually just read books on my phone. Currently reading Storm of Swords.

I just use them when I'm on the train or something like that. I usually have a book with me but if I'm only the train for a little while I'll chat to someone on FB and play a game.

 

[Cruyff14]

Train = iPod. It's all I need.

 

[Cooldude]

My Ipod's my life, I hate it though. It's actually a subpar mp3 player. I dream of the days when there were other brands like Creative before Apple controlled everything

If you run out of lives on CC, you can change the time on your phone to how many hours you must wait to get more lives, and then you will get the lives. And you can just change the time back afters. FWIW I hate CC now.

 

[SM]

Yeah I take my iPod everywhere. Love it.
