Sooper Fast!
Well it is 2:23AM NY time (EST) and I just got home from my job at the welding company. I'm doing some on-site machinest and welding work at a Best Buy store and in my humble opinion, they suck.

Anyway, as you may know, I have been having problems with Amp'd Mobile (a celluar service provider). I received a letter from Verizon Wireless :Oops: . Why would they send me a letter? So i opened it and guess what they had to say? They were reducing their mandatory deposit from $1000 to $400 due to my credit score.

Then it hit me!!!

Maybe it was due to the fact that I was a former Amp'd Mobile customer that **Untranslatable** for their service and since Amp'd Mobile is in the garbage can **Untranslatable**

This is my take on it. O:)

The_Mini_Rigs, I wish this made some sense. Then I wouldn't feel as if I'd wasted my time trying to read it.

You took the words right out of my mouth mathogre!

It appears that you speak his language Village Idiot. Tell him that we want to understand him but we simply can't.

I really don't think this guy is for real. Twice he's posted about how other people can't speak English. He's gotta be laughing about this. I say we just ignore him from now on.

Humm, well, I'm new here. Sounds to me like The Mini Rigs doesn't realize the importance of communicating on a forum such as this. Some places it wouldn't matter, but on a forum like this, being able to communicate properly would get your question answered without readers having to try and decipher what's being asked.

No one wants to look a fool. At the very least, a dictionary can be very helpful, even if you can't put your words in the right context.

Yeah me too. And it has to be in bold type.

I can think of at least three reasons for the gibberish:

- it was 223 AM when he wrote it
- he just left his welding job, so his vision was slightly impaired (typos)
- he lives in NY, so he probably doesn't speak very good English

At least it wasn't a complete waste of time, because the responses were funny!

I can't help but think that I had something to do with the title of this thread because I inserted a link to the dictionary definition of irony because of one of his previous posts.

The_mini_Rigs Strikes again.... oh the horror!!

I am wondering why did he join the Mac-Forums to post about his daily issues!!!

Apology to the Unit is a must :Evil: I just hope that if he decides to issue one we'd be able to understand it for a change. LOL
