Google was super nice and gave me only four invites for Google Music; it’s currently still in beta. I have only  2 left. I’ve been using it for a few weeks now and it’s awesome; I no longer have to cram gigs of music on my phone sucking up all the dam memory. Comment to this post if u want an invite.  If you don’t know what it is, Google Music allows you to upload music from your PC to a “cloud” and play it anywhere you go on your Android device.  So if you don’t have an Android phone or tablet, it wouldn’t do you much good. Although I can go to the Google Music web site on my phone and play the music however I do not know if that can be done on all phones or just Androids; it probably can. Don’t think Google would just limit their software to an Android. But really tho, Android is awesome, I feel sorry for anyone who doesn’t have one; if you don’t have one, go get one.  Rob somebody if you have to. Too bad iPhone users; iPhone blows balls anyway – get a real smartphone! … SORRY ROSS!!!!

Hurry for your invite because according to Google it’s only going to be available for a limited time.

I hate buying things online from people I know absolutely nothing about a.k.a. Ebay and now PayPal since Ebay bought them out a few years ago.  I haven’t used Ebay or my PayPal account in more than 5 years simply because I hate Ebay; always have. I never had a problem with PayPal (at the time) because PayPal was its own company then; wasn’t associated with Ebay at all.  You can read my past posts over the years of all my nightmares I’ve had to deal with on Ebay when being both the buyer and seller.  But anyways, since moving to my new place I had been checking through my boxes and I’m like I got a few things that have just been sitting in boxes for years I haven’t even used.  I have a guitar effects pedal set that I wanted to get rid of.  So I linked my PayPal account to my Ebay account and even had a PayPal debit MasterCard to go with my PayPal account that I haven’t ever used since I ordered it a few years ago.  I had gotten the card so once an item sells and the buyers pay me, I can just haul up everything to the post office and charge the shipping to the debit card.  I put the effects pedals up on Ebay for a really cheap $25 a pedal. All but  one sold tonight, so I’m like great. I got them all boxed up and printed out all the labels a few minutes ago ready to ship tomorrow.  I checked my email to a surprising email from PayPal saying the money received from the auctions I just sold, all the money was on hold and I would not have access to the money for 21 days because I have no account activity and the 21 days is supposed to leave time for customers to complain if they want to file a dispute. They said they will review my account every 35 days to remove the temporary hold.  WELL I DON’T WANT THE HOLD ON MY ACCOUNT RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I’M JUST SELLING SHIT AROUND MY HOUSE THIS ONE GODDAMN TIME!!! I am not going to repeatedly selling shit on Ebay to care whats going to happen to my PayPal account status 35 days from now.  I mean well shit isn’t that what the PayPal Protection service is for? To protect your purchase in case you get scammed?  I’m like what the FUCK!!!  So how am I supposed to ship all these pedals?  Out of my own pocket?  I DON’T THINK SO BRO!!!

Yep. So yea like now I’m pissed.  This is my first time using PayPal since Ebay bought it and it’s all to shit I see now.  PayPal would’ve never done some stupid shit like this if they still owned it.  So now I have to fork shipping out of my OWN pocket for Ebay items that I SOLD. Un-fucking-believable. So yea this is my last Ebay nightmare because I will never EVER EVER sell or buy anything on Ebay ever again. I should have stuck to my guns and just sold the pedals on Craigslist like I started to, but Ebay was just way easier.

So now I have to sit around and figure out how I’m going to ship these pedals tomorrow. Thanks Ebay. You’re a big fucking really no help making it harder to mail shit to buyers. Good job.  Next time I want to sell something, I’ll just be using Amazon or Craigslist.

Got an official email from Twitter today saying that Twidroyd for Android was suspended due to a violation …. of course it doesn’t state what the violation was.  Probably something stupid like copyright crap.  I mean seriously, as long as I can get my news tweets, I don’t care what the fuck Twidroyd does.  There is nothing personally identifying information on Twitter other than your birthday and even that info you can lie about if you’re so concerned about your info, and you can use whatever name you want so I don’t see what the big deal is.  Just another big whale trying to swallow up all the little fishes.  I mean come on seriously, Twitter’s Android app sucks so I’ve never used it.  In fact, they have plenty of low ratings for the official Twitter version while Twidroyd has more 4 and 5 star ratings.  But ya know … haters will be haters.  Not Twidroyd’s fault your “official” app sucks balls and everyone chose another app over your’s.  In fact, I didn’t even choose Twidroyd; it came already installed onmy Virgin Mobile LG Optimus that I got 2 weeks ago.  Not as good as Tweet that came stock on my HTC Hero when I had it, but still Twidroyd’s a good app nonetheless.  But here is the email received.    /sigh so now I’m off to try and find another Twitter app to use for my Android … and it sure as hell won’t be Twitter or any other of their “official” apps.  Can click for a larger image.

Smells like a load of bullshit to me …

So LimeWire has finally squeezed it’s last lime …
