Well if you have a very unsophisticated sense of humor then you should've looked at it as an Oscar winner. . .

I also went to the movies yesterday for teh first time in forever. I saw "Safe House." It was ok, nothing too memorable, but it was alright. I tried to see The Grey, but my buddy wouldn't have it. I like the "man against nature" genre for some reason.

Should've seen Chronicle. . .

[poopoo333]

Safe House was pretty cool. I want to see Chronicle, it's worth it X?

[SPX]

I actually really liked Chronicle.

Alot of the critics did, too:

Well, just because I will laugh at anything doesn't mean some things aren't better than others. Like I said, i did laugh a few times, but overall, I would say it was an average comedy.

Chronicle looks like some kind of teen movie, like Twilight or something... is it not?

The main characters are teens, but I wouldn't really call it a teen movie. A lot of people are comparing it to the Japanese anime Akira due to the themes that are explored and the last half hour.

Got a new phone today. Kyocera Echo, fuckin' thing is badass. Two screens, bitches.

^^ sounds dumb. What are you going to do with two tiny screens?

I don't understand why people are so into their phones. Phones are phones, who gives a shit.

It annoys the bejesus out of me when people are always dicking around with their phones. Don't know why, it just bothers me.

This



Turns into this



It's essentially a phone with two screens that can be locked side by side to form one functioning screen. So the one 3.5"(diagonal) screen can be doubled when placed side by side and form one screen either vertically or horizontally. It's basically a phone and tablet that can be folded to be compact. You would rather have a phone and a tablet to carry around when you could have both in the same item?

[MMA_scientist]

Yeah, if both screens work together, I can see the utility in that. I thought it was like one to text on while you check your facebook on the other.

I would take it if it was free. I really don't carry my phone around with me. I keep it at my desk, but if I am out and about, I really don't feel the need to have my phone with me at all times. Actually, if it was not for work, I probably wouldn't even have a phone.

Cool phone.

I'm not totally into my phone, but now that I have something that will play MP3s, I think it would be very hard to go back to not having podcasts to listen to when I'm in transit.
