I'm finally not hungover from Vegas anymore so I ended up being super hungry since I basically didn't eat all weekend. I ended up getting a medium pizza from pizza hut and ate the whole thing by myself and now I feel horrible again and need to hit the gym. D:

pizza hut?! definitely not a 1st world problem. 2/10

I tried to talk through time square this morning on my way to work. There was a Taylor Swift concert there apparently and I had to cross 42nd street and then cross back over to continue on my way. Who ever approved a concert during rush hour should be strung up by their naughty bits.

My own FWP:
Decided I don't like the new SLR I bought and also decided to just splurge on a full-frame. I didn't open the box, not even once, but I feel bad about returning the item and making Best Buy eat the transaction fee. I'll probably buy the full-frame from them though.

Usually when I walk through, it's early enough to avoid the usual disasters. This is the first time I've walked through with any issues (out of the normal stuff) this year.

I so wish I worked in NJ as well. Commuting to this dumpster fire of a city is taking years off my life.

*shrug*

My Fuze+ 8G, will take a micro card, still plays FLACs and runs Rockbox as custom firmware and will run for 10 hours on a charge, I don't want an I-Phone at work.

That and I bought it for 35 Bucks off the Egg refurbished 3 years ago.

Listening to FLAC.

You're one of THOSE people..

Excel is the biggest pile of crap I've ever used! /hyperbole

Seriously though, the Excel data to XML is so incredibly poor. And, when you map something badly, the errors are so helpful. "Verification failed. Reason: something doesn't match something." That means a whole bunch MS! Thanks a lot!

I only rip to lossless formats.
Then you're supposed to convert it to a 320kbps MP3 that isn't 50x the size it needs to be for absolutely 0 benefit. You're not actually supposed to put the FLAC onto your Mp3 player. That's just dumb.

Doing simple if/then, and/or statements in Excel is a exercise in masochism.

That's 2nd and 3rd world, even Ethiopia has MP3 players for everyone.


A real 1st worlder has the band play for them live via streaming or in person when warranted.

/pass the grey poupon.

Are you confusing "first-worlder" with "1% elitist?"

Dumped the same ALAC iTunes library onto my Galaxy Note 3's 160GB storage and could totally tell the difference between ALAC (lossless) coming from my phone and AAC (lossy) coming from my brother's iPhone...

...but that difference turned out to be AptX over Bluetooth.

Of course I don't put that lossless version on everything, but lossless is the only version I maintain in the collection (never copy back converted tracks).

they don't have that in NY either.

Yeah I find most people oversell their local pizza joints.

Also, anyone that brags about how well he cooks a steak tends to be completely full of it. Usually the steak isnt even good, much less the best thing ever.

I do both, keep a backup of both directories on the main.

I hope the new IEM's break in better than they sound now, I actually liked my M2's better so far.
