Angry birds stole my iPad

[thistle_chaser]

I love my iPad. It's a great e-reader and it's an awful one. One of the reasons it's great is that if you run into a word you don't know, you can just tap it and you'll get a little popup box at the bottom containing the definition as well as a link to wiki and an online dictionary in case you want more info

Bah, since embedding is refusing to work right now...

Wow! Best. Cake. Ever! I just hated to see the kid really play it! It was way too cool to knock over!

[fealubryne]

I thought that too, but then... it was made to be played, and it was made to be eaten. At least they had the chance to take a really good video and tons of pictures, and that's one cake the kid will probably remember for the rest of his life!

Man. Can you imagine bragging to all your buddies? "Yeah, cool ice cream cake... but my dad made me an Angry Birds cake. That I could play. For real."

[thistle_chaser]

Yeah, exactly. If not played, it'd at least get eaten, so... might as well play it too.

And yes! The video would last. :D Major bragging rights!

Haha, I know what you mean about distractions...here I am trying to work on a computer with an internet connection. The urge to check LJ and post comments is rather overwhelming, especially when I am in denial about that looming deadline!

[thistle_chaser]

*writing this reply from work* I totally know what you mean! The net is RIGHT HERE! So many interesting things to read! So many things I HAVE to check!

Good luck with your deadline! :D

I'm confused. Why couldn't you just tap the word at work?

[thistle_chaser]

Oh, I must have been unclear. I was reading a physical book at work, not something on the iPad. A book for work, not for myself!

[firebyrd]

*laughs* I feel like an idiot now!

[thistle_chaser]

Nooo! Easy mistake to make. :D
