Only women bleed
I mean it's not an iPhone, I have like 3 of those laying about to swap a sim into in case I get drunk again and fall down while trying to play pokemon go like an idiot.

but I'm tempted to buy one of these $50 amazone phones just to see if it's $50 wasted, just to have a spare device made of fragile eletronics and glass around just in case I need something to slap a sim into.

also it's completely unlocked outside of amazon trying to sell me cat and dog food, which I'm already going to buy from amazon, as it's only like $2 less to go up the road to get the fancy poo poo we feed our pets, and I already got prime, so some jackass has to carry 120lbs of food 2-3 times a year up our hilly rear end driveway.

Should I buy this phone, and test it for the pleasure of y'all.

or should I get a 6 hour probation for this bad idea?

Keep in mind, it's only $50 to get one of these bastards.

(and evidently so much better than the first smartphone I got. . . the htc ppc6700)

can you assholes just encourage me to buy a lovely phone for your amusement, or tell me to go spend it on gods elixr (busch lite + whatever pills an urgent care will give me for saying my rear end hurts)

In His presence the mountains quake and the hills melt away; the earth trembles and its people are destroyed. Who can stand before His fierce anger?
i recommend, instead of wasting 50 dollars on a piece of garbage manufactured in a factory that dumps industrial waste in rural villages like some sort of captain planet villain to cut costs on a sixth tier also ran android device, that you save the money or better yet donate it to a worthy charity

I mean it's not a hot babe, I have like 3 of those laying about to swap a dick into in case I get drunk again and fall down while trying to play pokemon go like an idiot.

but I'm tempted to let a guy blow me just to see if it's time wasted, just to have a spare set of lips around just in case I need something to slap a trouser snake into.

Should i get blown by this dude, and test it for the pleasure of y'all?

or should I get a 6 hour probation for this bad idea?

Keep in mind, receiving is not really that gay.

instead of spending time pondering what to buy, finding the best price to buy it at, thinking about whether you should buy it, then ultimately buying it to scratch the itch of wanting to buy something, go do some work that makes you feel fulfilled.

just think how much time you're going to sink into poking around with this thing that could be better spent doing literally anything.
