[SniperDroid]

I had to stop at the grocery store on the way home today. I overheard the girl behind the meat counter saying that they go on sale on Thursday for shure....or maybe she meant the pork sausage...?

@guts311 @blurlessX @PydePypper OK first off who the *heck are you. Second you have no idea where I heard this. It wasn't from a forum it was from a news site. It was from a vzw peep. So before you get sideways with me check your ish first and don't ever put me in the same category as p3droid.

@bgill55 @blurlessX @PydePypper LMAO all these "leaks" are from VZW peeps...such BS dude. Nobody you know at VZW knows..

guts311
@bgill55 @blurlessX @PydePypper Not trying to personally offend, but ppl in forums are getting pissed, let down after let down, and each bogus leak is just adding to it. It's better if everyone with their special "leak" just keeps their mouth shut.

someone will get it right eventually... they have to :blink:

Yeah, and I could sink a 75 foot put if I took enough shots at it.

 

[screaminz2002]

I wonder what would happen if we all did this nonstop all day long there are quite a few people on this site and I bet we could clog them up pretty nicely.

LOL ridiculous

 

[doublea500]

ty guys, nice to know people at least found it funny .

few things id like to point out about the conversation
-he misspelled carry and i pointed it out
-i talked about the iphone 5.
-he never gave me an answer on whether the iphone 5 had ice cream sandwich
-i made him wait 2 times "one moment please"
-the funniest thing was that he didnt know the d1 had froyo. he had to look it up.

 

[YankInDaSouth]

Well played doublea500 lol

They (VZW reps) have a rough time going off script don't they lol



Via my TBolt ... for a limited time only

 

[doublea500]

thanks. i tried to reel him in, as if i were fishing for leaks <- (metaphorical oxymoron?). i tried to hide that fact that i only wanted to know information about the galaxy nexus. thats why i talked about the iphone for a bit and i started by saying something that would show i had no knowledge of new phones. he obviously cought on to my scheme at the end where i just gave him about 8 questions in a row, all trying to get leaks, thats why he exited. This just shows, the online reps do not know/will not say anything about the galaxy nexus.
