This is missing the annoying people in the background yelling "OMG, did you see that!" and "did you get that on camera!"


What it lacks in annoying background people it makes up for in clanking and squeaking.

It's even more fun if you imagine those squeaks are the toys screaming in terror.

High pitched squeak is the snore. Little body, higher pitched noises....and snores.

And what's the DEAL with that comment by DRAGEN? If one Seinfeld joke is hearing them ALL, then what's hearing TWO jokes? Infinity plus one? It's like a hamster cage filled with Grape Nuts and you're the wheel!

Yeah Leno is annoying. The commercial needs some kind of joke to allude to the Conan/Leno fiasco......maybe we can get one in the comments.

Some kind of joke that was funny at all would be an improvement. Seinfeld's entire schtick is to say inane things in a pubescent boy squeak. If you've heard one Seinfeld joke you've heard 'em all.



Meh, that's about as lucid, well spelled, grammatically correct and intelligent as you ever get isn't it Quant?

squeak..... squeak..... I'm very cute..... squeak

Still quite happy so far. I have noticed that the battery seems to drain more quickly than with Gingerbread- not sure if that's due to my simply playing with it more.

Also, there was one weird thing that happened. The phone shut off and rebooted in the middle of a call! Now if there's one thing that any phone should be good at, smart or otherwise , it's making calls, It had never happened before, and hasn't happened again, so we'll let that slide for now.

As for general operation, yes the phone is really, really snappy. Apps seem to launch more quickly and there are no delays when scrolling through menus. The camera is a huge improvement- yes it's pretty much instant now, and the automatic panorama feature is really cool. I wonder how Google managed to pull off the quick camera thing, as phone cameras are notoriously slow to launch and use. Hell, it's the same camera, just a software change, so I'm curious.

Anyhow, all the best to you and yours for the Holidays. I personally celebrate Festivus, but haven't yet been defeated in the Feats of Strength, so I guess it's not yet over!

Because of the many vast improvements over my old phone, I'm still quite thrilled with it, but my problems are a bother. Connectivity is definitely spotty. Most times I have no 4G and when I do, most times a speed test will result in surprisingly low transfer rates (5-9mbps down), but occasionally I'll get 20mbps/19mbps (down/up).

Also for whatever reason, during some phone calls it's been giving me high-pitched electronic squealing/squeaking/cracking that's like needles in the ear drums. Problem is I have time to exchange it, but since they are so scarce, I probably won't be able to.

Awesome that you got ICS on your phone. Are you enjoying it? Is it pretty snappy? I'm more than happy with how incredible the OS is versus the old Androids. Since they say it's purely a software improvement, does ICS provide zero-delay photos for you now?

Sorry to hear about your troubles with the Galaxy Nexus. Has it got any better? Are you having the signal problems that others are reporting?

I'm still happy with the ICS update. My only mild disappointment is that Face Unlock isn't part of the package with my Nexus S, maybe later on they'll add it or maybe it's only for the Galaxy... who knows.

I don't own a device fast enough to play this without skipping.


My macbook can just barely squeak out the 4K version without skipping, but it gets damn hot and the fans rev up to 11.

Edit: and it doesn't matter because the monitor isn't a 4k monitor

I fly a Moros in EVE Online (the ship that is destroyed.)

I will see every planet BURN from orbit before I let some squeaking pre-pubescent child get within eyesight of my 2.85-billion-pound engine of death.

That high pitched battle squeak roughly translates into "Come at me bro!"

He's like, "Why? We have legs.. just use them!"

Meanwhile some 400lb'er lumbers by in slow motion, gasping, and rides the escalator up as the gears squeak under the strain of the weight.. wondering why conveyor belts don't cover all the straight-a-ways longer than a few meters.

I like the way it squeaks. Not often you see a Deer make noise.


You see noise?

They actually snort a lot...

"Probably the most commonly heard vocalization by deer is the alert snort. It is almost always preceded by the foot stomp. Mature and yearling deer of both sexes uses the alert snort when imminent danger is detected. Many times deer will escape to the edge of what they consider the danger area and give repeated warning snorts to alert other deer. This vocalization is made with the mouth closed while the deer forcefully expels a single blast of air primarily through the nostrils. Deer in family groups more commonly give alert snorts; members of buck groups rarely give a repeated series of this call."
