Didn't buy fireworks this year, I feel really old now. What tipped the rest of you off?

I don't even regret not buying any, which in turn makes me feel even older. What was the straw that told the camel how old it was for everyone else?

Mine was not listening to Top 40 Radio most of the summer. When I turned it back on during the Fall, I wondered what in the hell happened to radio because it was nothing but auto-tuned crap. WHO stole the music when I wasn't listening??

When I was 15 I bought a beat to hell Nissan 300zx off of a tow truck I saw parked up the street. The driver said it was getting junked, so he gave it to me for $50. It didn't run, but I didn't have a license, so probably for the best. :p

Now I drive a 2004 Toyota Camry... I settled on it after 2 months of research, comparisons, visiting multiple used lots, passing up sleek cars with lesser lifespans, and so on.

Y'all are funny to me. I am almost certainly older than anyone who has commented so far (I know I'm older than most of you), and I don't feel old yet. I can tell you this, for sure, though...

Treasure your friends and family while you have them. The hard part about growing older is that you lose people you love.

On the other hand...

I've said it before, but it bears repeating. Every day I get up is a new day, full of possibilities. It's midnight on the east coast as I type this (I'm on the west coast, but I have math skills).

Joyous New Year to you all!

When a couple friends and I decided to go play with playground swings as grownups. The resultant pulled muscles, cracks and "ow" sounds were both comical and sad.

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
