Youre trying to go to college with money you dont have to pursue a degree in a field youre still undecided on and yet, need a laptop for under $300 that will still be able to play Overwatch...

I recommend cheap (<$300) laptops.

this is what I currently have, got it around two years ago. guessing it could run Overwatch, but it's a game I don't play. best of luck with your search

Pick one - gaming laptop or internet laptop. The first will not be $300. The second should easily. If you wanna play OW for under $300 get a PS4. Although the next question is why, it's not a great game. I played for a while and content was too slow unless you were paying for loot.

what are you talking about? I'm not undecided on anything. Besides I would only have to got American for one year (~50K) until I can go back to West Point Prep. After the next two years I can get a medical waiver

Really it's only a temp situation and I would totally take out the loan to do it but I can't seem to convince my parents.

My state school offered to waive my deposit due to certain circumstances, so I essentially double deposit-ed in case American didn't work out.

The stupid ass school bribed my parents by giving me enough financial aid it would cost nothing (outside of the $5,500 federal loan) to go there. Now it's pretty much impossible for me to convince them to send me to American. Fucking jack-asses

Yeah? So whats your major?

Sounds like you are, in fact, trying to go to college with money you dont have and bitching about your family who wont help you and throwing blame on everyone but yourself.

Edit: but this is you, so why am I not surprised? Didnt accept responsibility for running the red light. Didnt accept responsibility for hitting the other car. Didnt accept responsibility for any of the other shit youve done.

I bought a 300$ ASUS laptop and it can't run any game that came out after 2004, even indie games, i would say it's basically a toaster that can browse the internet but it can't make toast, making toasters superior.

Was this trash, bought it on sale in black friday.

Buying a laptop for gaming is like buying an apple watch to call people.
Might as well burn your money.

Lolok. I have 2 desktop PCs capable of playing high end games, as well as a laptop. I use the laptop all the time for gaming. Its great when Im away on business or on vacation at night.

Yeah. Theres great laptops for gaming. You may have to pay a bit more, but you get what you paid for.

Getting a lisa frank notebook and doodling some overwatch characters is about as close as your going to get for a mobile overwatch capable laptop with your budget.

>Laptop

>cheap

>gaming

political science or policy

Dunno what the PTR is but whatever. I personally don't buy games twice except on accident.

Lmfao. Its called poli sci.

Why are you hating on your state school? Dont just base yourself off the stupid rankings.

Your parents shouldn't have to pay for your education. If you want to go to college, make it happen yourself. Work through college. Sounds like you fucked up already for not planning ahead with scholarships.

For three reasons:

1. jack asses want me to take summer classes
2. Jack asses won't let me choose my major or classes next year
3. I hate this jack ass state. I literally live five minutes away from this university by the way

Why should they have to take out a loan on the condition that youll pay them back?

Even WoW would have trouble running on a sub 300 laptop, and that can run on a toaster

Because I can pay them back? Also, what makes you think I can work enough to cover 50K?

Zangulus posted...

He has no idea how much things cost. ($300 gaming laptop)

not my fault I'm not familiar with technology. I'm a console gamer

Zangulus posted...

He thinks $60,000 is a small loan to ask from his parents.

cuz I can pay it back

Zangulus posted...

He breaks the law and thinks hes immune. (Hit and run, extreme excessive speed)

never said that. Also, hit and run was harmless (hit the car at <1mph) and everyone speeds

Zangulus posted...

He refuses to be accountable for any of his actions.

Wrong

Zangulus posted...

He tries to place the blame on others. (The ticket for rear ending someone for reckless driving being put in his brothers name)

Not my fault the cop fucked up and somehow put my brothers name. I gave him my license

Zangulus posted...

He has no real idea how life works, or how to do even the most basic things. (Such as research or use google to find answers to help him)

sometimes it's not about the question, it's about starting a conversation

Zangulus posted...

He refuses to attempt to do anything that could better his life (get scholarships, go to a cheaper school to save money, work and save up for college)

It was April when I found out I had to start applying for scholarships. There isn't nearly enough out there at that point and I certainly don't qualify for any merit based

Zangulus posted...

He lies on the face of overwhelming proof. (Pretty much all denials.)

I never lie

Zangulus posted...

Hes talked about causally sexually harassing coworkers, and then denies it when confronted. (His secret technique.)

I didn't deny it, I'm just saying it was a joke that went too far. I've never touched a women in my life

If you cant afford to go to college on your own, go to a community college where its infinitely cheaper. And you wont be able to pay them back until after graduation and even then, 60k is a lot of money, more than youll probably make in a year.

-Komaiko54- posted...

Is being a console gamer supposed to be a valid excuse for not being familiar with technology?

-Komaiko54- posted...

Your car came into contact with another car. Unless you personally hash it out with the owner of the other car, its a hit and run, irregardless of the damage.

If everyone was jumping off a bridge, would you jump too?

-Komaiko54- posted...

Wrong

Explain how hes wrong, then.

-Komaiko54- posted...

Did you correct him? Attempt to fix the situation by correcting the person involved?

So you admit you fucked up because you didnt plan ahead and had no idea what you were doing. Did you even talk to a guidance counselor at the start of the year?

-Komaiko54- posted...

Bullshit. Youre continuously caught in webs of lies.

This explains soo much. Lets hope it stays that way.

What do you mean? I found out in January that I got into WP prep, which is free. I had no reason to believe that I would not get a medical waiver until they just told me an April. excuse me for thinking things would have worked out for once.

He doesn't want to pay anything, he just wants school to be paid so he can move into a dorm and ride the wave for a few years.

No, this is just a really great school compared to UD given it's location and such

also, I'm pretty sure I said that I would only have to go there for *one* year, then I can go back to WP prep (free) and then I'll be medically clear to go to West Point (free)

I don't want to spend my one year in this wack ass state that won't even let me choose my own classes or major

Zangulus posted...

So, can you afford to pay that? And thats a pretty low interest rate. Bump that up to a 10% aOr...

Yes?

Love how selective he is with his responses. Only chooses the ones that fit his narrative.

Zangulus posted...

Even if you could. Its still not a small loan. Your parents might not even qualify without putting their house up as collateral.

they won't, they both have terrible credit but I'm told parent plus loans are more forgiving

are more forgiving for poor credit history

Hahaha. No.

No bank will forgive someone for poor credit history.

I said they were MORE forgiving not that they would forgive the whole history
