Sans 360:Day 8
Posted on 11.29.05 by A 47 Danger @ 8:56 am

Xbox 360

USA TODAY, the newspaper with a stuck caps lock key, reports this in regards to the next Xbox 360 shipment:

Microsoft’s Molly O’Donnell says the company has “a weekly replenishment strategy.” The first follow-up shipment “is on the way, and it should be on retailers’ shelves by the end of the week or for the weekend.”

The number of Xbox 360 units in this shipment is still a mystery. A GameStop employee told me that the Xbox 360 systems ship in boxes of two. At a minimum, it seems that each store should get at least two units. Premium or core? Nobody knows.

My fingers are crossed for more than two units. It is, in fact, day number 8 without my preordered Xbox 360.

I have found myself at Best Buy looking at accessories and the like that I don’t intend on buying. Maybe I’ll feel more like “pimping” my Xbox 360 when it’s in my hot little hands.

Pimping. Hmmm, Wikipedia, help me out.

Pimp can also be used as a verb such as “You’re pimped up!” or “Pimp my ride”; as such, it is an American slang term for being unique, “cool”, or socially desirable.

So instead of telling children they are each unique and individual snowflakes, you can call them pimp snowflakes. I will start calling people pimp snowflakes starting today. You should too.
