<p>it will self-destruct in T minus 8 hours. watch out!</p>

<p>That's why you should always break said item the day before the warranty expires.</p>

<p>I lost my calculator 4 days before the warranty expired..</p>

<p>that's very sad, leah. but you can always find it again!</p>

<p>I got a new one..it was lost forever.</p>

<p>It's okay, though. I hate math anyway.</p>

<p>lol, but it's worse when you don't have a calculater and you stll have to do the math.</p>

<p>Well, at least I had no attachments to the calculator. It was my mortal enemy..</p>
