Curieux88Mr Curieux88 I can not truly hold you ar fault forbyour wrong headed response to my inquiry about this present drop that MassDrop is currently hosting because your response is a typical one, widely seen on almost every forum and in any number posts . While it may, ultimately, divulge the information needed, your response clearly demonstrates a FAILURE to understand how things should be. Any merchant, here in this case MassDrop, should have done the least of thier work and freely provided any and all dimensions and data necessary for me, as a buyer, to make an informed decision about what goods or services I may be considering purchasing. In the future, please refrain from such dim witted comments. They do not help.

T45-HEDOh hey Shakespeare
im not gonna write a novel to make a simple point. IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL.
just look it up, if you find what you think is necessary info, post it. Your smartass questions don't help. You know how people post reviews on products? Just like that.
Chill out and move on.
Curieux88Ok, so what if @T45-HED did go to Google to find the dimensions that should have been provided in the product specifications? Someone else would ask the exact same question.
Even if you go and Google the specs you are looking for you should STILL ask the question. Why shouldn't the retailer or manufacturer take the 2 minutes to update the product page, rather than forcing every interested consumer to spend 5 minutes Googling the product, finding out there is no manufacturer website (at least not in the first page of results), having to go to the Kickstarter page, then having to parse through the whole campaign page to find the specs for which they are looking?

TipsyMacScotchslurpenso someone at massdrop a mistake. So what? instead of leaving a smartass question, just google it and post it here. It's a simple mistake that you can just ignore.
Posting what you found will give the same message to the company. Don't act like you the only one who found the problem with the big bang theory.
Curieux88It is still a waste of people's time if they have to search through the comments section to find the specs for the product, especially when there is already a "Specs" section on the product page. If I was trying to sell something I would be willing to put the specs up, and eventually someone might do so here. As a matter of fact, several of the items I have seen for sale on Massdrop have had corrections and additional information provided by Massdrop employees or the manufacturers after having questions raised in the comments.

TipsyMacScotchslurpenWow guys. Nobody is keeping score huh. Well, no problem. I can do it. So one point awarded to Curieux88 for answering the question with a response (with the intent to entertain, not insult), and one point awarded to T45-HED and TipsyMacScotchSlurpen for pointing out that the seller made a mistake (you guys can split it). Will ya look at that! It's a tie!Looks to me like you all won! So how's this: let's chill out, stop this bickering, and go grab a pint of Guiness! Who's with me!

T45-HEDThis conversation reminds me of a moment in 1944 when the XX Bomber Command first began their sorties over the islands of Japan. The first expedition started on the evening of June 15, with seventy-five B-29 bombers sent out to attack the Imperial Iron and Steel Works in a town called Yawata, towards the northern end of the province of Kyūshū.
Two engineers on the third shift were having lunch at the time, arguing about whose metal chopsticks had the more perfect dimensions. Each had forged his own in his spare time, you see, as part of an ongoing competition that had been going on for months. Hiro felt that his latest set of sticks were best because they were 235 millimeters in length — the longest chopsticks on the factory floor, in point of fact. Futoshi vehemently disagreed, insisting that the increased girth of his 8 mm wide chopsticks allowed for much more control when in use. The two men stood and were about to come to fisticuffs over the matter when the first bomb hit and killed them both.
The bomb run did very little damage otherwise, and the very capable Japanese defense force shot down seven B-29s, but it still earned a great deal of positive attention from the US media. It also brought it to the attention of the Japanese civilian population that the tide of the war had turned against them. The attack prompted Japan's military to increase the number of jets protecting the homeland, and by the end of October the ranks of the three air defense divisions had swelled to 375 fighters.
Futoshi was buried with his prized metal chopsticks, one of which had been badly damaged by shrapnel. Hiro's body was never found.

WigdaddyThe moral to this story is this: Life is too precious to be arguing with your friends over little things, like chopsticks (not literally, duh). More importantly, WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO HIRO AND HIS CHOPSTICKS??

WigdaddyBut can we be sure that it were really Futoshis chopsticks that were found with him? What if the whole attack, or maybe even the whole war was just a trick of Hiro to get into the possession of Futoshis superior chopsticks without anybody finding out? Maybe he stole them, hid somewhere save for the past decades and is now trying to get rich by selling chopsticks made like Futoshis on Mass drop!
