Just sold Lunar, Lunar 2, and Arc the Lad Collection for $275 on eBay, waiting for the fees to eat me alive.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
Wedding planning is ridiculous. I mean, I know that's common knowledge, I know it's cliche, but hear me out on this: All the pageantry and politics involved is completely eye-rollingly irrational. The extent that people care about the stupidest little things is absolutely dumb. It is a sad commentary on our culture that people care so much about the wedding but so little about the marriage.

Anyways, do any of you kids know a decent American online retailer that ships to UK/Ireland? Beyond the obvious, that is. Searching for a couple of thing, looking for
a bargain.

The sound from a sonic boom probably reverberated in the attic space as opposed to being blocked more by the layers in the walls being close together.Ziggy587 wrote:Turns out it was indeed sonic boom. It was in the paper today. A "pressurization issue" caused an F-15 to rapidly descend. I was talking with a co-worker today that was also home at the time and said she thought a tree landed on her house. That's really amazing to me, since at my house I thought the source of the boom was directly above me as well. And she lives a good 15 miles away.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
I might turn this into a bit, but:
Have you seen the new Cottonelle toilet paper commercials advertising a product for storing rolls of ass wipe? The slogan is, I kid you not, "respect the roll". The premise is that a container should be used to store your toilet paper in, as it's a product of integrity that deems respect.
It's a product you use to wipe your ass. It must be the least respected product followed closely by the day after pill (but thank God for both of 'em). This marketing ploy is either genius or incredibly stupid, I think the latter, as people generally don't respect things they use to smear fecal matter on.

It got up to 111 degrees today (a record) here in Texas
Needless to say I pretty much stayed inside all day. Hopefully we will start cooling off within the next coming days...

I think it was 107 here. My patio was 115 and change at one point. So bad when you wish a hurricane or tropical storm will come.Soldier Blue wrote:It got up to 111 degrees today (a record) here in Texas![]()
