"I'm simply saying I shouldn't have to save my money for 5 years to buy it. When something new will come out by the time I can afford it." So... you're saying you deserve it.

"I think you're confusing 'money' as in paper bills potatis." Potatis was talking to Jeff. Jeff was talking about bills. You're such a fucking idiot, it astounds me.
"Also you're missing the picture here soup, he is jobless, but he said he's looking at objects he MIGHT get when he get's a job, but the prices are absolutely fucking ridiculous because it would take probably weeks or even a month out of his entire work check to buy it." He doesn't know how much he is going to be paid, and he's never had a job before to give him an idea. I'm going to go out on a limb and say he doesn't even know who exactly he wants to work for. Also, any minimum wage job will pay well enough for pretty much little gadget he wants to be affordable within the first week -- unless he's really going all out for something big, in which case he'll be able to afford it in two. Unless he starts mowing lawns for 10 hours a week or less, he won't be waiting long for anything -- especially when he has absolutely no other expenses to pay.
Jobs pay a hell of a lot more than allowance, and 90% of the time prices are warranted. So, do you really want to defend a little bitch who thinks he's entitled to expensive things, or do you want to encourage him to learn the value of a fucking dollar?

"When you factor in the arguments, killings, and just plain, simple greed it causes, no amount of money is worth the paper/linen it's printed on." Don't be a fool, Jeff. The existence of currency, at the fundamental level, came about because of an inherent desire for something in return. Whatever is valuable is what these people would be hoarding/asking for with their "business." Little pieces of paper deemed valuable by an authority have little to no bearing on whether or not these things happen.

Welcome to late adolescence. Have fun thinking deep over the next few years.
Also, you're complaining that the price of something was too high. You, a jobless, moneyless individual, are complaining that he can't afford something. You aren't allowed to make that call -- especially if you plan on being so vague to the rest of us about what it is and how much it costs.
You're asserting that rich people only care about themselves, when in fact your notion of "I deserve this but it costs too much" implies that you are only thinking of yourself as well. You're hiding that notion very poorly under things like "teachers don't get paid enough."

Trust me, it'll probably be a while before you actually feel independent. That is, unless your parents are the kind to kick you out of the house when you're legal. God help you if that happens.
So... you're saying you deserve it.

Not most of them, just me. The rest are total dicks. See this Rimrook guy here? Massive asshole.
I'll be sure to check it out, then.
You have to use calculus to prove why it's impossible, IIRC.
May the 5th be with you.
As in a fifth of liquor. It's a good joke.
Much better posture

Yeah, sex with cats is illegal. Sorry dude, you'll have to settle for your wife.
That's not even a joke, I'm genuinely sorry.
