What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

SMILE: THIS is playing next week

[Luke]

Smile from ear to ear: My Taxes are DONE!

Frown: You know how Adrien Brody's eyebrows make him look like he's constantly expressing sympathetic interest? Can't get anywhere close to that expression; the closest I can get is a face that looks like I should be on the toilet. Even when I completely relax my face I look like I'm in a constant state of frustration.

Maybe I am just better off getting a new car.

There's something to be said for that option if you can afford it. Both of my cars are less than 3 years old so it's nice to not worry about repairs. I like to buy my cars new and then drive them into the ground. My first brand new car (93 Jeep Grand Cherokee) lasted 14 years and 235K miles. The second one (99 VW Passat) only lasted 9 years and 120K miles. It was a piece of crap when it came to expensive repairs.

I always owe money so I wait until the last minute to file them. It kills me that if you do state taxes, they charge a lot more for state form and filing fees. Screw that, I'll mail it in.

Ours are tricky as being dinks, plus I own land in another state which complicates things. It's not rocket science, but I like to make sure all is in order and that takes extra attention to detail which takes way too much time.

I'll do another smile when I receive my refund.

TICKED: Recently ordered a copy of Y's Book I & II on Turbo CD from an Amazon seller.

Received a cart-only copy of Y's I for Sega Master System. The really stupid ass part: the Master System cart is wrapped in plastic and has a sticker that says "Y's Book I & II TurboGrafx" stuck to it. Well, okay then!

Guess I'll return this, but it'll make me late for Together Retro... if I end up doing it at all that is.

Yeah, I've mentioned it before but the only thing maybe holding me back is that my car now is totally paid off. But it's just bandaid after bandaid, and if this frame damage is going to cause permanent radiator/overheating issues I'm about done with it.

Got a new game for GBA today was expecting cartridge only in acceptable condition, may have marks or stickers as description said, BUT....



C I B
Cartridge also in its original wrap perfectly new!

$4.99 and free ship! Ebay can sure be funky sometimes

[harper]

It's not worthy of the *ahem* Finds of the Day thread but still not bad, got this bad boy for $42.51 shipped on ebay and I'm rather excited about it. The green looks even prettier in person.



edit: oh and the controller has a really nice joystick. I don't even bother looking for controllers with good joysticks anymore since I have one of those new replacement thingies, but it's always a plus when I find one in good shape.

You weren't kidding about liking that extreme green!
