Your first mistake was wanting an Apple product.
I also hope you're joking, because the phrase "First world problems" has never been more appropriate. You got a fairly expensive electronic device for free, and you're whining about it.

Or, unless you're one of the very few people who don't have a smart phone, use your smart phone through the same method (Unless it's a retarded iPhone, in which case you still have to use iTunes). It baffles me that people will spend hundreds of dollars on the latest and greatest smart phones then go out and buy a separate mp3 player. Phones do everything these days.TorqueConverter said:
I wish I was in a similar situation where somebody bought me really expensive AMD card when I'd actually kind of prefer a GTX 680... ¬_¬
I thought this would be because it wouldn't work or the customer sevice was horrible, but no, it's just that you don't like touch screens.
No, the video is not real. I can't believe anyone bought it.Lionsfan said:

As for the OP I'm guessing this is sarcasm.
And if not, smack yourself in the face hard.
Wait, you wanted a "new" ipod, but not a touch screen, but you confess Apple only makes touchscreen ipods these days, which indicates to me you knew of this situation, yet you... wanted your dad to magically change the products being offered?
2 years ago all I wanted for Christmas was for my dad to live at least a year or 2 longer. He died the next day. Be thankful for your family and your new plastic toy.

Although, in your defense, at least it wasn't the wrong car or the wrong color settings for your diamonds...

No... no... I heartily disagree.ecoho said:
Keeping this shit to yourself and realizing that it's a petty, childish thing to ***** about and then appreciating your father for actually listening to you with a big hug is the best option.
Fuck, my father gave me $50 to Macy's. I don't shop at Macy's. There isn't a Macy's near me.
I still thanked him for it because I don't really want anything, and if I get something it means the person spent some time thinking about me - and I appreciate that in any amount.
It's not "most" - it's "all" of what you said. Every single word read like some whinging spoiled brat, and you're not helping your case with this reply.
Touchscreens are fine. I've never had a problem with my Nokia 710. A lot of the experience depends on the OS and processor power. Maybe you just don't like Apple, which is fine, but hell man... your father pays attention to your face-noises long enough to discern that you want a new iPod, goes out and spends a $200+ on a single present for you, and you understand that it's the only option available... then complain.
Vent into your own hands and then smack yourself. Nobody agrees with you for a reason. A helluva lot of people get gifts that are $30 or less, and a lot of people don't have family members who bother to go far out of their way to personalize a gift to any significant extent.
Your father did both.
Appreciate what you have been gifted with, both metaphorically and literally.
Wait, you were being serious?ecoho said:
Oh dear.....
And you're 24? I call bullshit on that being your actual age.
I just told my wife about this thread and she almost choked on her drink laughing.
She guessed at it being someone in their early teens and a spoiled one at that. Told her 24 and she stopped laughing and just shook her head.
There are no words.
I know that feeling, man.ecoho said:
For weeks, if not months now, I've been moaning to my friend about how much my crappy old keyboard sucked and how badly I needed a new one, and he'd tell me about how he was being kicked out of his house and had to find a new place to live.
About a three weeks before Christmas I got a box in the post from my friend, and was told to definitely wait until Christmas to open it. So naturally I forgot all about it until actual Christmas.
What was in the box?
A new keyboard. This bastard lights up red, it's got macro keys and shit!
But.
I noticed it's not the top-of-the-range model which has a moveable numpad and multiple light colours. Christmas is so fucking ruined.
Ahh the classic 1st world white bred Christmas problems. How's about I buy you a one way ticket to Sudan to make up for it OP? Would that make your Christmas?
Mine was good, got one really expensive gift this year and 1 modestly expensive. Few other goodies. Family was really happy with what I gave them.
Appreciate what you have.

Oh, give the guy a break, its the one time of year we were are allowed to be as greedy as we all really want to be. Sucks that you got the touch screen one, you can probably swap it out or something.
probably the first pizza marketing campaign to get an almost unanimous response of, "Die, *****."Phasmal said:
That's... an accomplishment.
OT:
After reading your second post:
Please go smash your head against a cactus at full force until you've removed all of its spines.
A LARGE one.
May everything you ever receive ever again have a broken touch screen on it.
Please be a joke thread...
Considering the OP can't spell his own occupation correctly on his profile worries me though.
