Alright, peace Gotta admit though, the obsessives can go too far. It's the same for anything, the Twilight obsessives are just slightly more annoying... Twilight and DBZ.
Awww man... You don't like DBZ? I don't really see it as obsessive... just having strong interests... I think some people would call us obsessive for our interest in ipod/itouch games... As long as you're not hurting anybody, and as long as it doesn't affect your work/school life... enjoy your interests to their full extent I say.
Nah I like DBZ, but I saw a guy with a giant Goku tattoo on one ass cheek and Piccolo on the other and I decided he'd taken it to extremes. As for Twilight fans, I'm talking about the kind of obsessive fans that have taken to pissing me off via Facebook by declaring they're now "real vampires" and have taken on a bizarre new religion.
I just read the books to see what all the fuss was about. Same thing with the Sookie Stackhouse books when True Blood got big. Having a Kindle invokes the same kind of impulse purchasing of books as the iPhone does games.
Makes sense, I thought like that but then I realized, wait..I don't like reading anymore..lol. But I bet thats the first Kindle I've seen, never bothered to Google it. Looks sweet though, probably easier on the eyes than an iDevice screen
It honestly reads just like paper, and is right up there with my iPhone as far as being among the coolest devices I own. Also, my own anecdotal experiences lead me to believe I can read faster on it. But here's an example of why the Kindle owns: I like Michael Crichton, and have been looking forward to his latest novel, Pirate Latitudes. I preordered it on the Amazon Kindle store, and forgot about it. Yesterday, when the book was released, I woke up and powered on my Kindle. Not only was the book already on it (downloaded via the AT&T network), but it had also updated itself to Kindle OS 2.3, providing 85% better battery life and native PDF support. Seriously, the thing feels like the future.
No, I guess they found it mostly finished on his computer and his editor tweaked it and the family decided to publish it. It feels kind of weird reading what essentially amounts to pirates.txt out of Crichton's personal documents.
