Smile: While hanging out at my local Play N Trade, my friend behind the register showed me the most amazing box of trade-ins I have ever seen in my life! Somebody traded in complete copies, (box and perfect manuals,) of Mega Man, Mega Man 2, Mega Man 5, Mega Man 6, Mega Man 7, Mega Man X, Mega Man X2, and Mega Man X3!!

They want $15 for Mega Mans 1 and 2, $40 for X2, and only $65 for X3!!

Ticked: As I go to pull my credit card out for what I think is the score of a lifetime, I'm informed by my friend that as much as he wants to see me give these games a great home, with plenty of hours of play-time, his douchebag manager is keeping everything aside for himself..
Okay, fine! He saw them before me, so fair is fair, I guess.. Until...

Absolutely FURIOUS!!!: My friend proceeds to also tell me that he's pissed as well because his douchebag manager only wants to buy them so he can put them up on eBay and sell them for double what he pays for them..
THAT is fucking bullshit!! :x :evil:

EDIT: at any rate, the important part was "my wife surprised me with a GAME."

Unless it's been a few weeks with no update, you just have to wait.

I've had stuff get delayed for weeks before, but in the end it still showed up. Only package I've ever had not show up was a very heavy package I got shipped from Japan...by boat. Of course it wouldn't show up :lol: (this was during the ban on air mail to the US, so no option but to ship by boat...or so I thought - the ban was pulled shortly after that package was mailed out :x )

Bought me a used ps2 console for $20 it powered on. but Eventually found out the Video, audio, and Disc drive don't work. I bid on a working ps2 console online won the auction. Now this creeps me out Because the person who is buying my broken ps2 up for auction is the same person who lost the ebay auction to working ps2. He has the same "ebay rating 6655" and has %100 on ebay. Its too creepy Aaahh!!! He is buying a lot of working and broken ps2 on ebay.

- Whad'ya say?...

- Me, who?...

- Yes...

- Nooh!... It isn't!...

EDIT: What shithead had to go edit my post this time!?... God, this is getting preposterous very fast now... It was just a picture of Gadaffi, and he wasn't even naked for cryin' out loud!... Taking away that picture kinda ruined the joke. It was just the fact that they were like looking at eachother in a similar way that made it funny. Now it's ruined. Seriously, get a life...
