I guess by "through Sunday" he meant that the sale would end this morning. I figured he meant that they would end tonight.Posted by: DeeJ
And, Black Friday came early this year. You can buy from the Bungie Store right now, and enjoy a 20% discount - effective immediately. Sale prices last through Sunday.
Sorry if there seemed to be hidden messages in my grammar. Such was not the intention. I did not mean to dupe, flim-flam, or hornswaggle any of you.
For the puposes of future clarification, please allow me to explain how the word "through" works... When I indicate a condition (such as a sale) that is in effect "through" something, my meaning is that said condition would only remain active while we are still within the confines of that specific frame.
Sorry if this is still complicated. We are dealing in abstract concepts. Allow me employ a metaphor to break down the barrier that separates us from a state of understanding.
Let's say that you and I are on a cross-country roadtrip. Maybe we are headed for PAX East. Maybe we just find ourselves fed up and want to get away from it all. Anyway... One requirement of the journey is that you agree to let me poke you in the eye as we drive through the state of South Dakota. Why I would want to do that is irrelevant. This is a mere contrivance to aid us in our quest for truth.
Now, as we drive through that endlessly wide state, you will be wondering why you agreed to this. You would be desperate to cross that domestic border. If my assualt on your ocular receptor continued as we entered the great state of Minnesota, my persistance would be met with enormous protest.
"DeeJ!", you would scream... "We made it through South Dakota. That was the deal. Now, STOP!"
That was basically what I meant when I said that sale prices would last through Sunday. If you think of Monday in the same terms as Minnesota, the sale is over. Next time, I will be more precise, like "This sale is completely, totally, and beyond a shadow of a doubt over at midnight on blah, blah, blah..."
Thank you for reading this. Tune in next week, when I hold a fireside chat about the meaning of the word "skyrocket". In the meantime, the Bungie Store is still open for business.
Love, DeeJ.
This makes sense because spending $100 on a backpack is exactly as smart as letting you poke my eye repeatedly.
Hey! I only payed 72$, thank you very much!... (+ 150$ or so more...)
