What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

After losing the PAL version of Shenmue II for Dreamcast on Friday in a fierce bidding war in the very last minute for $52......

I snatched this copy for $50 with my bid being the only one. VICTOLY!

Not to brag, but now I feel extra special for finding a complete PAL copy in the wild for under $20.

Especially being located in the US...

SMILE: My students are funny. We were working on a sheet of brainteasers today and one of the questions was "what word looks the same upside down and backwards?" One of my girls exclaims "poop!" then thinks about it for a sec and says "oh wait, poop upside down is boob." I couldn't contain my laughter.

(by the way, the "official" answer is SWIMS, though "I" certainly works and is what most people seem to come up with)

Depends if you're rotating it 180 or mirroring vertically.

pood?
NOON

Nice. As of right now, it's finally having it that counts for me.

Especially being located in the US...

I made sure it was from the US before I proceeded. I had a few international transactions on Ebay with no problems in the past, but I'd much rather have it faster

Yes, it DOES kinda look like Africa. Add that to the smile column

Got my Deathsmiles LE
But what about the other ones I ordered? One's still in transition at the local hub, another hasn't even entered my state!
(I reloaded the page a few times... and ended up buying a bunch at the time)

So... how the heck am I going to get rid of these?

Considering each costs $5-8 to ship (depending on zip) it will be tough to flip for profit - there are a ton out there. What about Christmas gifts?

I got a Gamestop gift card from my dad today in the mail for Christmas. I texted him and said thanks and he said "You're welcome, I thought you would appreciate that because I know how much you like Zelda." ( Whatever, no he doesn't LOL) but he apparently doesn't know how much I don't like Gamestop. haha
But anyways, there are a couple of wii games I have been wanting and I figured I'd swing by Gamestop to get one or something. While we (my girlfriend and I) were there we saw one of those 25th anniversary Zelda gift card thingies. I was like "Hey, I wonder if they would let me switch the money left over on my gift card to this Zelda gift card." So after a couple of minutes of waiting in line and making jokes about my dad not getting the Zelda gift card in the first place (you know, since I like Zelda so much), it was finally our turn to check out. I asked the guy if he could transfer it and he kinda looked confused and like he didn't want to do it. The other girl who worked there was joking around with me saying I was just trying to make things complicated. Even I had this one figured out, I said "Well, can I just buy the Zelda gift card with the one I have now?" and the girl said "How much do you want on it?" I said "Whatever is left over on the first one." (duh) So long story short they finally figured it out. I got Lost in Shadow for Wii and I have a Zelda gift card that I'll probably never use

Smile: The 2011 Fall Semester ends today at my college! YES!!!! Freedom!! Have some serious gaming to catch up on!

Ticked off: Paypal needs my bank account info now apparently for some ridiculous verification reasons? They already have my American Express account so I'm not just giving out my bank account info.
