ScramDiggyBooBoo commented on Paper Sheet Protects World from Nuclear Holocaust So when it is "accidentally" dropped, do we enter Nuclear War and retaliate against the Russians thinking it was them, cause after all, noone knew about the nukes missing for 36 HOURS! Thats the sad part. "

Wait a minute, i could have SWORN there was 6 nukes sitting here just this morning. Huh, my bad!"

ScramDiggyBooBoo commented on Brecht BMW Tells Customer "Go Back To Volkswagon, You Don't Deserve To Own A BMW" I dont really feel for this lady.

ScramDiggyBooBoo commented on 40GB PS3 Finally Made Official, Backwards Compatibility Gets the Boot Thats BS, no backwards compatability? I guess i'm stuck to the 10 PS3 games! Thats pretty cheap, the card reader and all i can understand removing hardware to bring down the price, but thats a simple software emulator to play PS2 games. How cheap of sony, i guess they have to recoup that half BILLION in recalled batteries somehow!

ScramDiggyBooBoo commented on Premiere Bathrooms Swindles Parkinson's Afflicted Elderly For $15,000 Bathtub Its disgusting when i see elderly people getting taken advantage of. Shame on them is right! With so many elderly that are sent to rot in Nursing homes until they die, this lady actually desperately needed these peoples help, and they played on that. Greed is going to kill this country (more than it already has).

ScramDiggyBooBoo commented on Back-Up Pal Does Exactly that for Cell Phone Contacts I have Verizon and they have a backup assistant you can get on your phone for 1.99 a month, but if you are a registered user for their online site (who wouldn't be) then they waive the 1.99 fee. It works by backing all your contacts up to a database and then if your phone gets lost/stolen, when you get the new phone, simply enter the name and password and it syncs you new phone with all your contacts. It only backs up your contacts, but free was always the best price to me.

ScramDiggyBooBoo commented on Letter To Steve Jobs: One Apple Obsessed Fan Becomes "Disenchanted" After iPhone Price Chop I think the consumerist nailed it. You can't be the first in line to get the newest high tech gadget there is, and then be mad when the company decides to change the price a few months later. No matter when the price drops, there are going to be people who bought it last week for that higher price. You can't make everyone happy.

ScramDiggyBooBoo commented on To Get Telemarketers To Stop, You Must Specifically Say "Put Me On Your Do Not Call List" Heres an idea. Go to www.donotcall.gov. If you register your number there, you will be put on the international do not call list. I have done it for family and what not, and they never get telemarketing calls. Also, and dont quote me, but i think that if anyone calls you within 5 years of registering on the do not call list, then you can sue them.

ScramDiggyBooBoo commented on It's Easy To Miss News Of Product Recalls One thing i dont understand. Every one of those 28 million bottles has a UPC on it. Why not create some database that contains all the info on what was recalled and its a companies duty to make sure they check this??? Then put a ban on the UPC code so that when it is scanned, it will not let the cashier sell it and comes up with some "product recalled" message? I dont know why it couldn't be this easy? Please correct me if i'm wrong.
