Share The Fun Things You Did Today

This thread is dedicated to the fun/amusing stuff people did today.
Today, I built 80% of my first custom PC, and it was a BLAST. Nothing like putting together parts. It's like big boy lego

Another fun thing I did today was make someone paranoid when I was talking about a completely different thread getting locked.

You didn't even read the above comments did you? It wasn't trolling, it was posting what fun thing I did today. The OP just thought my statement was directed at him. Not all misunderstandings are troll attempts.

Holy s!#& I'm actually getting fast data speeds. Check in your speed test results.

On my galaxy nexus I always get 3-5mbps download on speed test.I switch my SIM card out and hit 15mbps in spring (north of Houston), Texas. Any one else getting massive gains? Who needs lte with gains like this. Will continue to test around Houston.

yea the HSPA+42 radio helps a lot. had 15+ mbps with my tmobile sgs2, then when i switched to the gnex the speed was cut literally in half lol

Got 13.74Mbps a few days ago, it's nice to see these speeds =) The places where I don't get high speeds are like in my apartment, where I usually have wi-fi.

there's already a thread for this. read before u post.

So bloody rude!
Plonker!

Umm, I'm sorry, but multiple threads stating the same thing are not necessary. What you posted initially is more of a post under an existing thread rather than a new thread topic, even if smirkis did not put it in the best way possible. Do recognize the fact that this is a developer forum. Go through this thread if you really want the long version (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1642566).
EDIT: Oh, and inb4 lock.

Post your Nexus 4 Speed Tests here!

If you could manipulate l any feature of people's phones what would it be?

Say you could control someone else's phone using your mind (like a super power) but you could only do it to one feature. What would you pick. Contacts? Texts? Calls? Maybe even the camera to r the popular Facebook.

De-escalated my friend...de-escalated.
The unwritten rule of thumbsdown for XDA OT is:
Never start a thread in here unless your really drunk or voluntarily mentally diminished.
This tidbit even supersedes the mandatory, yet never paid attention to 10 post rule.

The mods gives out points that leads to being temp banned and if you continue or do something stupid they can ban you for good. This isnt posted anywhere because they claim its like explaining the law for loopholes so no one can push the system to see how much they can get away with. Pretty much the mods have the power to ban you if they need to it just depends on the mod and what you did they also can strip you of your title if your a developer or themer
http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/banning-policy-revealed/

It's VERY sad that some people even questioned whether I was joking or not, but I halfway expected it. I mean, when I said "no one has brought up battery life" that wasn't a clue? Hello!!! That's what it's come down to around here and even though I was joking I was also testing to see what responses I would get. Disappointed but unfortunately not surprised.
I think I will just chill out until I get another phone because there is obviously nothing left to discuss here, it's always the SOS. "Need better battery", "SwapSD", "you guys are the greatest ever", "best ROM around" and now the new one "hey guys, I'm leaving". LOL. Somebody posts 5 times here and expects a going away party? Hey if you're Camcory though that's another thing, just to be clear btw. To think, those threads are allowed too.
Whatever.

I agree with you artful, time for a cool off and study up on my next phone, i will still post here and there but there really nothing left to post about

Did I miss some fun? I already moved on to a Lumia 521, but still have been following what's going on with the Exhibit. I do remembering making a comment or two to Cam in that thread which I can't seem to locate now. Odd, because I wasn't complaining about anything.

It's sad that a joke or two cannot be tolerated here. You can't even compare what goes on in the exhibit threads to other popular phone threads.

Thank you for sharing this information. Honestly we do care and are very greatful for it, its just we needed that little bit more info on the source, as you may have seen its very easy for people to just claim they know things and post them publically and with tensions running so high as we are very happy about the device I feel many of us jumped to conclusions.

Yea, there have been many rumours about the release in the past which makes us difficult to believe on any1

Take a chill pill, please.
My suggestion, dont use safe terms like:
"I work for a big media company"
"I cant go into names"
"If people don't like it i would suggest don't reply"
It sounds very fishy and not very convincing
FYI, there are haters everywhere
