car dealership calls after all the papers signed wanting more money?
so me and my dad traded in our car about 4 days ago (2008 kia rio) and we get a 2010 versa. our payments are 324 a month, and 250 down. all the papers get signed, we leave, and have been driving the car since. today my dad receives a call saying they need him to come sign more papers, when he gets there they say something along the lines of "we need to add an extra 50 to the payments and need 500 down"
something having to do with the bank, i wasnt inside when they told him all this so i dont really know. anyways, my dad and i cannot afford to do this, we can barely afford the 324 a month, my mom tells me that this is just some tactic dealers use to try to get more money out of us, and will eventually back down, and she says its happened to her plenty of times. is this true? is it really just a tactic dealers do? do you think they'll take our car back?
7 AnswersBuying & Selling8 years agoEvery night I dream I'm taking orders at work, how do I stop?
So about two weeks ago I started my job at McDonald's, Im 17, and so far it's decent. Not my favorite place to be, but whatever. So I work the front counter for 8 hours a day sometimes, but every night since I started front counter, I've dreamt that I'm at work, but I'm not fully asleep, part of me knows it's a dream but I can't convince myself right away, I have to fully wake up and tell myself that I'm at home in bed and I need to sleep. I literally do that every night, I'll sit up, look around and say "I'm at home, I need to sleep"
While this works, it'd be better if I just didn't have these dreams in the first place
To go into more detail about the dream, I basically dream I'm at the front counter taking orders, and I'm falling asleep as I do it. And I'm also having trouble taking orders because there's no actual register for me or anything, and then I'll direct the customers to another register
Anyways, I really need these dreams to stop because they're ruining my sleep every night, do you have any advice?
3 AnswersDream Interpretation8 years agowhy do people say the date "november five" and not 5th?
ive always heard people pronounce the date like that and i just thought they were saying it like that cuz they never learned, but the other day i heard someone say it in a sitcom (how i met your mother). he said "it was november five" not november fifth, and i was shocked. not that this is a huge deal to me, but im just wondering, is this just something that some people never learned? or is that correct as well?

i bought this thing off craigslist for $70, its an elite, but come to find out that it doesnt read any games, except for a world at war for some weird reason.
anyways, i assume theres a mod or something i can do to it? its not under warranty so theres no limits to what i can try. a new laser? i was thinking about going into my local xbox repair shop to see what they think is wrong, what do you guys think, basically what happens is, i open the disc tray, put a game in, close it.
makes two noises, then says open tray again. thats all that happens. is there some way to fix it myself or should i just take it in?
1 AnswerXbox9 years agohow do i set up my new desktop to my home internet?
so i have a router in the room next to mine as well as all the other needed crap. my dad gave me his old work compter, which doesnt have wireless in it so i had to hardwire it to the router, the internet is working fine on the laptop (as you can tell by me posting this)
so i have an ethernet cable running from the desktop to the router, usually this worked on my xbox or anything else, but now its not. the desktop is running XP, and when i try to connect to the internet i get a message saying "limited or no connectivity"
when i click on the local internet icon in network connections, the general tab says my internet speed and all that but it still says limited or no connectivity, what am i doing wrong? do i need to set up a new connection using one of those wizards? or what? thanks ahead of time for the help

Ive had my iPhone 4 on verizon for like 4 days, everything's been fine, but today when I tried sending picture messages it wasn't working, it gets to about 90% then it fails, I know a lot of people had this problem, is there a way to fix it, I tried restarting and turning off my mms and turning it back on and all that stuff, I was wondering if I need to call Verizon or something, the only way they'll send is if while it's sending, I delete it from the conversation
2 AnswersCell Phones & Plans9 years agoare there any dangers to jailbreaking my iphone?
im sure 100s of people have asked this before, but whatever. so I've had an ipod touch since 2009, and its been jailbroken since the day i got it. there was a point where i didnt have it jailbroken, and it was sooooo boring without my extra apps. so i know ill feel the same way about my iphone. i have it on verizon, im very good with jailbreaking so i wont brick it or anything. but im just wondering like, will verizon know anything? or something, what are the risks about the iphone, that arent a factor for an ipod? thanks :)
5 AnswersCell Phones & Plans9 years agoshould i keep my ipod and buy an iphone 4, or sell it for a 4s?
i know that there should be a new iphone in around october, but thats not really that important to me. right now i have a droid x, and an ipod touch 4 32gb. now im going to sell my phone, and i also have 60 dollars. but i wasnt sure if i should sell my ipod to get a 4s 32gb, or keep the ipod and just get a 8gb iphone 4. i use my ipod A LOT, way more than my phone, i use it for internet browsing when i dont feel like using my laptop. i have about 11gb of music on there as well as pictures videos apps etc.i have about 7gb free on it right now, and i like having that extra space. but if i bought an iphone 4s and put all my stuff on there, i wouldnt have to carry around 2 devices, just one. but at the same time, if my iphone dies, then thats it, i have nothing else to use until i charge it. also theres that $200 price difference which makes me lean towards the iphone 4, what do you guys think? and im on verizon if that helps at all

1 AnswerMusic & Music Players10 years agoMy girlfriend really wants to try weed but I don't want her to?
So this has been an ongoing thing between me and my girlfriend, we were both straight edge when we started dating. The fact that she was straight edge is really what attracted me to her in the first place. But recently she's been wanting to smoke weed. All of her friends do it, her older brother does it, and most recently, her best friend started. She tells me that she might, and I just don't know what to do. I really really don't want to break up with her, or threaten to, but if she does it, it'll kill me inside. I just don't know how I could ever deal with my girlfriend smoking. Idk what to say to her, I can't keep an eye on her at school cuz we go to different schools. This is killing me just thinking about it. She knows that this will hurt me, and I think that's what's stopped her from doing it so far, but I think she's gonna do it soon, idk what to do or what to say to her, any suggestions?
