I got my first car!

A Rover 216SLi 16 valve with the "o" series engine (made by Honda). Got that for £300 bargain! It was my birthday present too.
Also:
Palestine - Joe Sacco
The Art of War - Sun Tzu
A Long Way Gone - Ishmail Bhat (I think)
£40
And finally Whytchwood brewery entire catalouge. (All four of them!)

Not bad!

Not my exact one, but just to show people what they look like.

£300 ?

It would cost you a minimum of £1000 for one in denmark... if it is in good condition then min. £2000...

hax tbh

Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me

Dersmikner: Member; +147|6947|Texas

Bose iPod dock
iPod car kit
iPod charger split-thingy that also works with my Motorola Q
iPod kit to hook my iTouch up to my home stereo

(just got the iTouch for my birthday on 12/7 so everyone went iPod accessory on me)

Set of Baccarrat tumblers to match the set I have
Brown leather overnight/duffel bag with a small University of Texas Longhorn embossed on one side (where I went to college)
Set of Tiffany cufflinks
Set of Burberry cufflinks
ACME pen to go in my collection
Set of metal collar stays in a leather case
Longhorn topped wine stopper
1988 Mouton Rothschild

I got some other little bullshit that escapes me at the moment but that's the important stuff.

I gave a bunch of expensive but kinda generic gifts this year. I'm usually a very creative gift giver, but this year I just spent more and thought less.

[added] Oh yeah I forgot, my Grandma gave me a damned Rubik's Revenge Cube. How friggin funny is that? She has totally lost it at this point. The only thing I really wanted this year that I probably won't go buy myself (at least until I get desperate and really want one) is a badass fountain pen. I'm a pen whore.

No sense in being pissed though. I do feel spiteful when I see how many gifts others got this Xmas but it really crushes the real spirit of Christmas if you do that. I basically got a $40 gift because I know I'm never going to take the time to pick out the stocks to invest $1000 in anyway.

This christmas sucked ass. Maybe last years was good, maybe the one before, and the one before, but this one chocked on 50 cocks. Id invest in the stocks, you can make a shitload of money that way if you pick good ones.

I will, eventually. It's actually a great gift but it just takes so much damn time.

But hey, you know what? If you want any games and didn't get them, you can always torrent them!

Yarp! The roof paint is a bit dodgy, numerous scrapes and the plastic bumber at the back is dented, and there are no rear speakers or radio.

So I got a radio for it that plays MP3s. Overall a bargain!

Edit:
I just karme'd Gooners, damn the karma button being on the top.

And hypno-socks...

https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb8/Freezer7Pro/Bild042.jpg

And 50€ for cleaning out the grandparents' basement.

There's a mystery package coming from my uncle soon, though. Could be anything. I'm guessing ~200€ or his öaptop, if he's upgraded. (Really hope for the last one; GeForce 6800M (Or something) and a 2.4GHz (or 2400+) CPU.)

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
