I want everyone to think long and hard on this information. This means that you are not buying your games.  You are paying 60+ dollars to rent the games from Microsoft, and they can take their game back whenever they feel like it. You will not own your game.  You will not own your console.  Essentially, Microsoft is saying “We can disable your games and cut you off from accessing your console whenever we choose to.”  Because a ban that locks your XBox Live account means that you will be locked out from all non-game functionality of the system, and by revoking your ‘licenses’ on all your games associated with your account, they can then disable each and every game you own for the system.  Leaving you with a five hundred dollar cable receiver.  Or, in the case of most users of the console, a five hundred dollar paperweight. All because you accidentally walked into some online glitch and the rest of the players rage-report you for cheating. This is unacceptable.  Buy any console but an XBox One.  Do not support Microsoft’s sudden belief that they own everything despite our purchase of it, and we have to prove we’re worthy of being shared with by paying exorbitant fees and jumping through constant hoops and hoping someone doesn’t report us for cheating because we made them mad in an online game. Tell Microsoft ‘No,’ and do not give them your hard-earned money for what amounts to a video game subscription service with a $500 starting fee and $60+ dollar purchases. Signal boost It’s like they love shooting themselves in the dick. wooooooooooowwww

effyeahnerdfighters: ssailboatss submitted: So I have been talking to this guy I really like for about a month now, and I was at work one day and he surprises me, bearing my favorite Starbucks drink. I had lent him Looking For Alaska, because he said he never really enjoyed reading, and I told him this book would change that. So he told me he was done with it, and he took me home from work. We get in front of my house and he’s like “I want another book!” So I told him I’d run inside and get him Paper Towns. As I was getting out he grabs me and is like “wait! there’s this quote I wanted to show you on page… 123 I think. I like it a lot and I’m surprised you didn’t highlight it!” and so I turn to the page, and there is this post it note pointing to that sentence.  I was asked out via a John Green book.
