Etch-a-Sketch PRO

A while ago I wrote about how my old Etch-a-Sketch toy broke and couldn't draw straight lines anymore and how I wrote to Etch-a-Sketch complaining.

Well I just though I'd update you: they didn't reply...
I don't know what to do... nobody doesn't reply, any business I've ever written to has always replied! I do like etch-a-sketching so I'm not going to go so far as to protest or boycott the toy, but I must say I'm pretty disappointed. My mom got me a replacement for the broken one so It doesn't even matter, I just like getting gifts from business.

Even though this letter to a company didn't work out, I'm not going to be deterred; I've already got drafts to Flying Dog Brewery and to Chipotle in the works... I must say, it usually helps to add some sort of work to the letter to demonstrate the time you've taken for the brand. Here's mine:

Etch-a-Sketch goings-ons

Note to all:

I'm back motha fuckas! I've officially started etch-a-sketching again. Despite some technical difficulties, I've persevered to the level of Leonidas. In the face of all adversaries, I stared them down and said, "AAAAAAHHHHH,SPARTA!" Turns out once graduated the ubiquitous school-appointed email I've relied upon for the past 4 years is now invalid... This makes my facebook reference invalid as well... Now my Etch-a-Sketch Pro page isn't accessible... Hey wait! my Etch-a-Sketch blog is on blogspot using the same email account!!! Regardless, I'll use hotmail cause It's free... wait! I can't remember my new email account! was it coryvoyzey or cory.voyzey or was it coryvoyzeyfrank89? Holy hell, I don't know!

Again, I'm only pissed a little, but as you can see: not to worry, cuase I've figured it all out.

But what I wanted to say was Fuck technology and it's constant updates, I could hardly figure out how to upload my new etch-a-sketch photos on facebook because they decided the old way of uploading photos was inefficient apparently, because now theres a new way to do it and it took me about 30 minutes to figure it out.

Now I realize that's not very long at all really, and now that the pictures are up theres no problem, but what the fuck? do they need to change it ever? the old way worked and now I'm dissuaded from ever uploading new pictures ever again.

Again, regardless... the pictures are up and you can view them here

Now let me preface these pictures with the fact that I finished creating them at about 4am when I ran out of Coors and Whitest Kids You Know to watch. About that time I started uploading them and having trouble and therefore writing this bitchy blog... But that's what blogs are right? A mode of bitching for others to "like" and "follow"

god how old am I? I feel like my dad, not a kid my age. why don't I like any of the things designed to entertain my generation?
