Historically, how is that $40 off on the 8.9" HDX? My mother-in-law is looking to buy, and I'm trying to figure out if I should tell her to pull the trigger, or hold out for a better deal.

But Tuesday is already $5 movie day for Regal Cinema in Oregon. You can just look and see how well that's working out for them. Instead, here's a free suggestion: if people aren't paying your exorbitant prices to come sit in uncomfortable seats with hundreds of disrespectful mouthbreathers watching poorly written…

So here we are, an entire console generation and 8 years later, and they're still charging the same prices for these games.

Not that the other stuff doesn't make him a shitty person, but kidneys don't have much to do with processing alcohol. So I don't see how him still drinking has much to do with that, other than not being the picture of health in general.

This is literally 3 months after the console's release. This isn't paying early to be an early adopter... this is bending your early adopters over a barrel and screwing them because you can.

Need I point out that the source for this "story" is the Daily Mail? The meth user that lives next door is more honest and trustworthy.

Can I just say how shitty it is that an article about a woman's death has a picture of the sister she hated first and foremost, and a picture of the actual dead woman nowhere to be found?

Which means someone that can vote today was 12 when it came out.

As someone who has lost one family member to addiction, and is in the process of losing a second to addiction, yeah. Yeah, I would call this death stupid. Sad, and a great loss, and a tragedy to those closest to him, but also fucking stupid that he got addicted in the first place.

Not surprised. The Wii U may be a disappointment (if not a failure yet), but he's also still the one at the helm of the company while the 3DS has been selling like... well, like every other Nintendo handheld out there.

How about the part where she tried to sell stolen merchandise? Merchandise that she at least had a reasonable suspicion was stolen, AS OTHER MEMBERS OF HER FAMILY WERE TELLING HER THAT IT WAS STOLEN?

I agree. Absolutely distasteful that her greed was so great that a museum had to pay lawyers to force her into giving back stolen property!

Amazon Student members can get that Chromecast for $25. I picked up a second one for my exercise room yesterday, since I've just been waiting for that additional discount to hit.

That's interesting, because as an EMT I've been trained that in an emergency situation when the birth REALLY shouldn't happen in the field, the mother should be placed on arms and knees in order to slow down and hinder the birth.

I suggest you learn your local laws about civil protection holds then, if you think they can't hold you in a drunk tank without charging you with something.

You could be under any number of intoxicants that simply wouldn't show up under a breathalyzer. I work in a drunk tank, and I can't count the number of times I've had that conversation. "No, you can't have a breath test. I don't care if you'll blow triple zeroes. You're slurring your words, can't stand perfectly…

When Amazon prides itself as being the next evolutionary step up from the brick-and-mortar Best Buy 20 minutes down the road, but won't extend me the basic fucking courtesy of price matching one day after date of purchase, then yes, I was fucking burned.

You're history's greatest monster.

Must be a new policy, because they flat-out told me no when I asked a couple years ago after getting burned. This was so ridiculous that when my wife bought a laptop a few months ago and it immediately dropped $80, I just fucking bought it a second time and returned it at the higher price, eating the restocking price.

"Trying something different" is not, in and of itself, always a benefit. Like, for example, when your operating system is so poorly designed that you have to put out videos, weeks after launch telling people how to actually use the system.
