cool logo and pinko annoying bragger

Allright now this is just plain cool.
I code it all by myself. I'll show the code once I clean it up a bit to work on any game. I will just be manually changing the day it gets the score for until the end of the World Series. After that, you may even be able to just pass a team code or something simple like that.

It all goes downhill from there, basically him bragging about bells and whilstles that are either unimportant, rarely used, or cost extra.

OK, well here's a very high level synopsis of it (you don't need to see the whole thing to understand, because if you did, you'd probably think the unimportant stuff is more important than it is)
OK, so he was stating that he got the position from arca. I said it was "gay" and here is why:

• Pinko sucked up to get it. There was no merit involved.
  
• Being in control of the open house really doesn't bring any benefits.
• Arcane appointmens are having less and less meaning. (like the word play?)
  

I then pointed out my signature, because I did work on it and was proud of it. It wasn't easy to dissect the MLB site's scoreboard.
Then this is really the part where the annoyingness starts. He jumps to the conclusion that I let one event change my handling of a completely unrelated one. A PDG event and his cell phone have nothing to do with each other. It is an unjust and unfounded accusation of mine. The rest of the conversation I now see is unnecessary. Whether or not his cell phone/coverage are better than mine is not important.
I still maintain that mine is better in all fields other than bells and whistles, and the fact that his has Jabber support (although i have a feeling he has to pay extra), which is indeed cool.
The only reason the camera was brought up was just to show that the net jealousness level would be more on his side (assuming all people are equally jealous, which is obviosly not true based on the unusually high level of pinko).
OK and then the "GSM of America" cockiness. For some reason, when I said I had better service, he instantly replied that crap. Just because he's been brainwashed with their good service ads and that its better and bla bla, doesn't mean its any better than anything else (I guess Virgin Mobile was worse, so in his mind, theis AT&T stuff is amazing). THen there is also the use of the name "GSM of America" by itself without specifying AT&T. AT&T does have a history of making up mobile names to disassociate them with itself. (Remember the mysterious "mLife" ads a few Super Bowls ago?) Anyhow, the name makes it sounds like its part of the government, whether or not you know what GSM is. Second, GSM is not specific to AT&T. Obviosly he probably thought this because of their brainwashing. My tri-mode phone can do GSM as well.

Bottom line here is that he was accusing me wrongly of letting jealousy (which was non-existant anyway) change my actions on another matter.
Well I've got news: It doesn't! (I dare all readers to prove this wrong and post a comment)

PS: It was very rude of him to interrupt my viewing pleasure of the 2004 ALCS Game 3.

PS2: Cell phones or other such things that are aquired by wealth alone aren't really things that I think should be bragged about anyway. Simply because wealth (especially among minors) is largely due to fortune. Other things that are done through work or other form of merit, and not just how much money you have are better suited for bragging, if you are the sort of person that brags.
