FTC Finally Kills ‘Extended Warranty’ RoboCall A-Holes

robocalls-dead-leadWell, it’s about g*ddamn time.

Like many Americans, we here at COED have been constantly harassed for the past year, countless times a day, by robocalls announcing that ‘the warranty on your vehicle is about to expire’. They called our office lines and our cellphones. Time and again, we pressed ‘1′ to speak to a “warranty specialist”, connecting us to some a**hole in a call center somewhere, who we asked to remove our names from the list. We also asked for the name of the company making the calls, where they were located, why the f**k they had the right to call us, endlessly. We were never removed from the list – and they never had any answers. But now, they’re totally screwed.

Friday, ArsTechnica.com reported that the Federal Trade Commission has finally gone berserk on these illegal companies, putting an end to their punkass ways. (more…)

Kid Shoots Parents for Taking Away Halo 3

halo-daniel-petric

As if violent video games don’t already have a bad enough rap, some dumbass goes and does this:  After having his copy Halo 3 taken away from him, 16-year-old boy-genius Daniel Petric shot both his parents – killing his mother – and ran away with the game. Not only that, but Daniel tried to frame the crime on this father by trying to put the gun in his hand, before fleeing the scene.

Now, I’m not sure if Daniel knew this, but if you want to gaurantee that you’re never going to play video games ever again, it’s by f**king shooting your parents. I don’t know if they have an Xbox in prison, but if they do, something tells me this guy isn’t going to get a turn.

5 Rad Things To Do With Your Dad

father sonIt’s easy to forget that dads weren’t always dads, which is why we honor them (for giving up their dreams for you). But instead of just doing whatever your mom or sister planned this year, give him some quality guy-time–because that’s all he really wants. And remember, just because Father’s Day is only today, that doesn’t mean you these rad guy activities wouldn’t still kick ass.

1. Build Something: Whether your father is a carpenter or a computer engineer, he’s still a guy and, therefore; likes to build crap. If he already has some projects he’s working on, ask him about them and see if you can help. You can always check out BuildingGadgets.com, which has a ton of cool do-it-yourself electronics. Or you could just build him a blog, but it’s not really the same thing.
