Yeah, so my MadCatz Xbox wired controller hasn't been working on my PC all week, so I plugged it into another computer and it didn't work there either, so the thing is definitely busted. I ordered a Microsoft one last night, but I'm not happy about it. Moral of the story: Never buy 3rd party bullshit hardware.
Yikes. I have a lot less money in my checking account than I thought I did. That's what I get for paying rent, bills, loan payments, hosting fees, buying groceries, and renewing my Driver's License all on the same day. Things are not going to be fun until the 15th...
Only one I get is from CaptialOne. Fuck them because of the APR.
Yeah its kind of tricky. The one I chose was some bank I'd never heard of, had a really low max (like $250), and STILL, several years later, has a ridiculously high interest rate. I still have it, even though I have a much better one from my real bank. If I canceled it, it would close a good line of credit and possibly lower my score. Anyway, the trick is paying it off immediately so you never get charged interest. So spend $20 a month on it and pay it off, something like that.
Here's what I did to get good credit: 1. Get an Exxon/Mobile or other gas card. 2. Use it only for gas. 3. Pay off the entirety each month for a year or so. 4. Apply for a real credit card and accept whatever you can get. 5. Use credit card for one purchase a month, max. Like groceries or gas. Pay of the entirety each month. 6. Apply for a better card after a year. 7. Cancel cards you no longer use.
Also, making consistent monthly payments on student loans helps your credit score.
I got awesome credit because my parents put me on their credit card account. I have credit history since 1976, long before I existed. :P
That is a double edged sword. If you apply for a line of credit while you are attached to another line of credit with a higher limit than your income can justify (i.e. 9,000.00 credit limit and you have a part-time student job), then the new line of credit will likely not be extended, because you already have such a high credit limit. Also, credit scores take into account your oldest line of credit, if you are taken off of your parent's line of credit, without another line of credit, you are - to a certain extent - starting from scratch.
Uh... Let's just say that no one who uses the family PC knows to clear the history on Chrome. I think I know more about my family now that I wanted to...

*sigh* In Chrome it's balls-easy to use private browsing mode. Ctrl+Shift+N creates a new Incognito window, and no data from that window will be saved after you close it. Change your homepage to this page and pray that someone gets the message.

He, I kinda knew about incognito but I just deleted browsing data after I was done manually. Also its not like my porn has such... indicative, names
You say that, but I'd rather have a rotary than a jag, if I had to work on it myself. Fucking Jags, Hey, let's take the whole fucking engine apart to change a spark plug cunting bastard. If I met a the jag engineer to who thought of the whole thing, I would punch his dick RIGHT OFF.

However, I also have a good job in the technology sector so I'm more likely to pay back debt I accrue.
Time to go car shopping. *sigh*
2008 model, 5 speed, all the fixins', 30k miles,
$14,500. Twice the amount I'm getting from the insurance company.
I really don't want another car note.
Too many people in the forums got me interested in the Honda Fit.
