Christmas present to choose?

earwax_man

I have €500 saved up for my Christmas present. I can either pay €450 towards a HTC Sensation XE with an extended battery and screen protector and my parents pay the rest toward it; or pay for the HTC myself after Christmas, and get a distortion pedal (I play electric guitar), Battelfield 3 and Guinness World Records book for Christmas, which they would pay for (I would pay maybe €50 towards it). Which should I choose?

Sky King

Well for starters I would get last years Guinness World Records book because it would be way cheaper and get a pen and some tipex and carefully ammend it with the records that were broken this year, with their respective details.

Hey presto! A 2012 book for half nothing!

...or you could just give it to me... :rolleyes:

Sky King

Sounds like an offer. Are you a burd?

earwax_man

Seriously, guys. I actually want your opinions, if I'm ordering either I need to do so soon enough :P

Go for the second option. Anything that gets you that Guinness Book of Records is good by me. It's a riveting read and might inspire you to set a world record of your very own.

Get the music sh!t, the rest of it is bollcks.

What sort of amp do you have and what sort of distortion are looking for?

also MW3 all the way!

blah

There's a new tax on Christmas presents so you can now only afford the 2011 Guinness book, tippex and a marker.

earwax_man

MW3 is balls. </rant> :L
I've a Rockburn 10 watt amp, it's a cheap one, it's my first. I self taught myself guitar. I was thinking of this pedal.

You have no need for your parents to be spending money on you when you could pick up a pen and write a letter to Santa ! ! What's wrong ? Couldn't be bothered writing a letter eh ? Too old for Santa Claus eh ? You people make me sick ! ! Get writing your letter is what I say ! ! It's not too late. Just make sure and get it sent in the next couple of days ! !
