    Asses are juicy and soft, and you can grab it when you're making out. Tits just don't give the same feeling.

    On the other hand, you can dive into tits and its awesome. Doing the same thing with the ass makes you a scat guy and I want nothing to do with you.

    Also, tits have diffrent sizes, each with its pros and cons, but small buts are just bad.

    That is true, chicks with no ass are just meh, but small tits can still be fun.

    Actually, mind if i bump this Lawliet to ask you how the chromebook was overall? I already have a laptop but its a little large and kinda annoying to lug around. However, I dont have the money to buy a fancy expensive small laptop just for school and starbucks so the chromebook is looking pretty nice to me.

    How was the offline functionality (like playing music)? Or should I just stay away as much as possible?

    Well. I bought a Samsung Chromebook for around 300 USD. Here's what I think.

    Pros:
    10 Gigs of Space on an SSD (not that great for storing a shit ton of music but you can store plenty of music and play it offline)
    Boots up in 6 seconds or less (always nice for class)
    You can download apps to it (good I guess but it can't handle super intensive 3D games.
    Extremely lightweight (it's super light)
    Plenty of battery life (I get 6+ hours without running youtube. Running youtube streams is like 4-5 hours)
    100 gigs of free space for 2 years (works on 1 gmail account but I haven't tried multiple)
    Fast Factory Reset (took less than a minute if I remember correctly)
    Charges in like 1 hour and 30 minutes fully. Even if you're using it.
    You can automatically close it and it keeps your work on there. So basically I had it closed for like 5 days and it maintained most if not all of its battery life. It turns off the wifi when it does this and shuts off the display. Simply flip it back open and you're back on if you don't have to resign into your wifi.

    Cons:
    10 Gigs of space (fuck man can't watch porn)
    Shitty gpu/processor (it does get gpu lag on 1080p videos and sometimes on 720p videos)
    Not great for SOME online classes (I tried attending an online class and for some reason it took up a shit ton of space on my ssd, the chromebook doesn't function that well under unoptimized streaming clients)
    2 Gigs of RAM (ehhhh, not really complaining but still you can get a better deal)
    There is no microsoft word (you'll have to use google docs, I'm sure there is a way to use it offline) If you use it offline it stores on your ssd and then you can later on transfer it to your cloud
    It isn't that durable. Plenty of scratches are already on my chromebook even though I rarely had used it.
    If you turn up the brightness all the way, the battery life is significantly decreased.
    It's linked to your gmail account. (Why is this even a con? My university has their own gmail-ish like email that is run on google but sadly I couldn't link up my uni account. This makes it hard to get files I need on that specific drive. you can probably find a way around it but you need administrator approval (fuck the IT department))
    Flimsy design (I felt like I could break this)
    The screen is like half glare/smokey if you catch my drift. Not really a problem if you turn up the brightness all the way
    Weird trackpad/keyboard (it's weird. My typing speed decreased by 20 wpm on it but it doesn't matter).


    So overall, I would not recommend the Samsung Chromebook. If there is a chromebook I can recommend, it would be this HP Chromebook. It has way more ram, seems better in all the specs, is slightly bigger, and has a way better trackpad. Plus it comes with a free 2 year 4G deal that allows you up to 200 MB/month. So if you're without wifi, you can always use your 4G deal.

    tl;dr You can play music. There isn't much space to go on (10 GB) so get a flashdrive and you can do it from there most likely. You can't close the chromebook and play music at the same time however (major disadvantage).

    i dont think i get that 4g deal in canada, just the 100gbs for two years. shame. the hp chromebook looks nice though, worried about the battery life though...
    so you want me to buy a $450 tablet over a $270 mini laptop when i already have a fully featured laptop of my own?

    Best tablet on the planet on sale TODAY ONLY at Woot.com.
    Asus TF700T. Quad core CPU. Runs 1080P video seamlessly, takes a 64Gig SD Volume with 32 Gig internal volum.

    I bought one about a year ago and frequently watch movies on it and hook it via the Mini-HDMI to my large screen TV.

    The Keyboard normally sells for $125, so BUY IT, it's worth the extra $50.

    If you have the money to sit at Starbucks like a little hipster then you also have the money for something not absolutely shit. The price includes a dock that makes it a full laptop and includes MS Office. It runs full x86 Windows 8 which means it has a trillion time more "apps" than a chromebook. The whole package also only weighs 1070g. If you want to get any work done, it's way better than a chromebook. If you just want to surf the web, get a cheap Android tablet.

    also its not hipster to sit at a cafe if its next to your university and your home is 40 minutes away

    e: anyways if tablets are the way to go, then there should be a good one with keyboard for under $300
    but i am weary about the keyboards, anyone have experience with like, 3rd party wireless keyboards on their tablets?

    You go to cafes to sit and eat, not stare at people.
    If you want to work and be publicly seen go to a library or a park.

    So first you said you want to get work for university done but now the real usage is only web browsing at Starbucks? Anyways, a somewhat useable keyboard costs some money that means it will always drive the price up. Maybe you can pick up the Asus Transformer Prime used/refurbished for cheap.
