How long does that crap at the beginning of V go on for? Should I spend 30 mins trying to spacebar through it?

Cucking funts who buy up all the newly released items just before Christmas and then charge 400% markups on them.
My daughter wanted granny to buy her a hatchimal for Christmas. Can you find one for less than $250.00? No. Also, I wanted to get my wife an NES Classic because she loves the old games. Brilliant idea for a gift, I thought to myself, and what do you know - every single one of them is gone and the cheapest one on Amazon was $200.00. **** every single one of the people who did that. I hope they drown in a bucket of ebola-laced AIDS. |

Reminds me of the Turbo man doll in Jingle All the Way (and I'm not making the comparison simply as I saw it on demand earlier. Obv). |

Re: Pet Peeves?
Friend of mine overpaid for some hatchimals last month. Apparently they are only "fun" for the few hours up until they hatch, then they become really boring and just repeat noises at you. The "fun" isn't even all that fun since kids have to tend to them for ages while they make noises but not much else. Biggest disappointment for a present ever.

I'm biased. I've been a GTA circlejerker since the first one came out. San Andreas is probably my favorite game of all time (certainly top 3) and I loved GTA V :lol:. I equally enjoyed the missions and free roaming. But that's me ...

It's up there, but SA has the edge for me. Can't explain why, I just go back to it time and time again.
Although, SA had the best country music radio station. All I can remember was "All my exes live in Texas" continuously. :rofl: |

However I know the NES Classic is going to kick supreme arse, and now I've been denied the opportunity to be the bearer of awesome gifts again. For that I am eternally cheesed off.

It's the Vice City soundtrack that does it for me. Sure the game mechanics are nowhere near SA, but the I love the whole setting and music.

Ikea have stopped doing the frames I usually buy and the replacements are slightly different and now my eye starts twitching when I walk down my stairs past the pics on the wall

Yeah, I guess it isn't isolated to Christmas, it's just that's when I noticed it this year. When I bulk buy shit that's on sale, it's for personal use (normally it's bottled water, so I'm hardly high impact but still :D)
I think the worst thing is people paying the markups, this encouraging the activity to continue. Especially now I've got to come up with a whole other awesome present idea for my wife. And I'm really, really shit at coming up with ideas for presents :eek: Daft, as it's not all that enforceable...well all the stuff gets sent to Brazil, where it's sold in the knock off stores foro massive mark ups as they don't have any genuine stores there. The locals, make a fair bit of money sending the stuff back to family. |

Re: Pet Peeves?
Speaking of classics...Ikari Warriors, Chaos Engine, Cannon Fodder and what was it, Karake +? Where you could get them to drop their pants.
I knew a chap who did a bit of work on Cannon Fodder and Sensible Soccer. He was bonkers. |
