  1. I divorced once while holding a pretty significant amount of stuff... I mean not compared to some of the heavyweights here but 1,500-2,000 titles across platforms. I boxed and stored it all, I was lucky I had a place to leave it (parent's basement, from whence It sprang so many years ago) and every once in a while I went over there and tried to organize it but eventually it started to feel like a burden. I was thinking i'd save it for children or sell when appropriate, and that time finally came. I got rid of all Wii, GCN, GBA, DS, DC, random peripherals and doubles of everything... and it felt good. I felt lighter. I still have more than I could ever play, and I have a child now so... Some of what I still have I'll piece out and some I'll keep but as far as partners opinions of them... as long as you're sane and clean about it most don't mind. Which is a good reminder to do what I think all collectors should try to do: specialize. Have a really good collection for a few systems instead of scattered disorganized stuff. Much more interesting and appealling. Keep your head up. My divorce was a gift. Not the best gift she ever gave me (nice chainmail doublet) or second (GEN Musha) but definitely the third.
  2. SMS is currently my only system, other collections NES 2600 SNES etc are all in storage
  3. When I have real food, like a tomato that has actual flavor, it's like the scene in LOTR where Theoden gets younger. I am like "oh hi life where were you at". Also, if I have sex that also happens, but for right now tomatoes are easier.

  4. Neighbors, I applaud your frequency of intercourse and inter-color relationship, but don't yell at baby to stop crying. He is crying because you are yelling. You are not great parents.

      I think more people should have their frequency of intercourse applauded.

  5. Ok, so my six pack is coming back. Cocaine is a thing again, and people are Bi still. It's obviously 1998. Must warn nation before 9/11 happens!

  6. I am ready to admit that my beats are not that hot. Can someone teach me? Because I seriously have more than enough rhymes to qualify as "mad", going to waste.

  7. I am spending tonight with galas, glass, cage, zorn and gerhardt richter.

  9. When I was but a little laddie, my daddy bought a fiddle for me, and the only tune that I could play, yes sir, the only tune that I could play, waass, ride the donkey. it was nonsene for me. Gallop a' donkey, was my major key. Cause deep within his heart, daddy knowed that I was smart, but the only tune that I could play, yes sir, the only tune that I could play, waaasss, ride the donkey.

  10. Adult services issue going on outside the apartment - "Why do you have poop on your butt?" asks the worker. Client answer unintelligble.

      Personally, it is my policy to always have an answer ready for the question, "Why do you have poop on your butt?"

  11. 1. I hate insurance2. So I fancy a bird with a bit in the boot, sue me

  12. So... many... punches. I have never been punched in the face so many times, without or without actually being hurt. No damage, but the sheer PPM rate was unbelievable.

      hard s and m. You'd never guess such a nice guy was into it, it takes all types though :)

  13. Fellow carbon-bases, I have allowed time to elapse while in the presence of those of similar genetic makeup! Consume and excrete, am I right? WHAT WHAT

  14. I support the perpetuation of two lies and two lies only; as they're both helpful to teenagers during their most vulnerable times.1. Your skin will clear up2. Protected sex feels the same

  15. A good woolen cloak, a fine spruce-topped guitar, oats in the cupboard, a knife of good steel. Guess I'm ok.

      Excellent. You must go by the name of Frodo Underhill to avoid suspicion. And remember: keep it secret. Keep it safe!

  16. Yeah... this is kind of like the Gen3 in a way. Maybe the Wii secretly got sold to Majesco. They put out enough titles for it, anyway. Seriously though, who wants this? There are literal tons of Wii's around for sale still, lightly used (how many people bought one, bought three games, and never touched it again because it didn't do what they thought it would?), "Dead" ones that just need a little cleaning or a new disc drive, and I bet there will be some pretty cheap unopened NOS original-style Wii's to compete with the new nerfed one, and win, because the new one has nothing going for it. It'd have to get pretty cheap before even I sprung for one. I'll give you 40 for it, just as a backup in case mine dies, but then I lose all my saves, and don't even feel like starting again in most titles anyway. Bleh!
  17. Did you reach platinum status for the reward points this year? If so you had to register to get the pins back in... I think it was like June? Just got done redecorating my engineers hat! And yes A_Locomotive really does wear a train engineers hat. yeah man be who you want to be. that's what I say when I see little kids running around in capes. or phoenix jones
  18. 1. Zooey is the celebrity that I find the most atttractive, period. Saw her in "manic" first, good movie I believe with Don Cheadle, and yes, the boxers in hitchhiker. So beautiful. Anyway The goodwill here throws cartridge games on the shelves. They go quickly because the flea market vendors, who sell games only and charge ebay prices, scour the place regularly. I buy CD's though, someone in the area (CT) is just getting out of Ska now. WTF? If you were in it for a minnit, then you got rid of your shit over a decade ago. Who held on to Ska all the way up to 2011 and then suddenly decided they don't like it anymore? Anyway, I have bought three ska t-shirts, two pairs of shoes which almost certainly came from the same person who had the tshirts, and mu330, moon comps, ruder than you, slackers, pietasters, buckonine, less than jake, planet smashers, vgs, and many other Ska cd's. At four bucks a CD, it's not piss money exactly, but it's still a great deal. Your average CD has what, 16 tracks? So that's .25 cents a song, or 75% off what you'd typically pay to download music, which is already relatively cheap. Kind of sad that music has been deflated like that, but it's not something that could have been stopped. I also have a little crush on the girl there.
  19. BEWARE, I LIVE!

      Computer working again?

  20. Jimmy Cliff doing ruby soho is good enough to balance out the unexpected bill

  21. Computer died. Won't be around until money knocks on my door. So if anybody needs me, I'll be... surprised, actually.
