OrtizDupri commented on Sprint: Military, Eh? Here's Your $500 Bill, at 4:38 PM on May 25 Also, didn't want to bring this up - but don't call yourself a damn "HERO" or "PATRIOT." Nothing annoys me more than people using their military service as some way to get free things or as an excuse to cover their own lack of responsibility. (Not meaning to say that is true in this case, but I have seen so many people use the "I'm in the military" excuse - from getting free things in various places to trying to get out of traffic tickets.) more » [consumerist]

OrtizDupri commented on Sprint: Military, Eh? Here's Your $500 Bill, at 4:33 PM on May 25 I'm sitting here in the middle of Iraq (somewhere near Baghdad) - and honestly, this story doesn't add up.

OrtizDupri commented on Everyone Wants To Leave Lost's Island Paradise, at 5:26 AM on Feb 23 I live in Hawaii. Fucking hate it - tourists don't see the downsides, because they tend to be in Waikiki or doing touristy stuff and sitting on the beach. They miss out on the INSANE traffic (worse gridlock than DC or LA), the outrageous prices on everything from gas to milk to anything, the inherent racism of most of the island ("haole" is a fairly common phrase), the fact that shopping for even general home goods or supplies is limited severely and thus you are forced to either pay exorbitant amounts locally or order online and pay exorbitant amounts for shipping... more » [io9]
