RE: Universal Chat Thread - Maniakkid25 - Dec 9th, 2021
My parents have, but I need to pack my stuff, and I still need to work on that. Not really looking forward to it.

Had an idiot blow a stop sign today and then flip me off and honk me endlessly when I didn't stop as he tried to do it because I was already in the intersection so couldn't exactly get out of his way to let him through, not that I would've had any intention of doing so.
RE: Universal Chat Thread - ShiraNoMai - Dec 11th, 2021
Perhaps that's the reason why Maniak hasn't decided to pack yet either
Drivers in SoFlo get DRAMATICALLY worse during the holiday season. Way too many out-of-state folk that just don't know where they're going, using their god damn phone while driving, and either wildly slow or wildly fast folk. It's so infuriating. >.<
Trying a new fitness thing today: decided to add more cardio to my weekly workouts, so woke up and went to gym today and did 30 minutes of brisk walking. Felt pretty good. I gotta remember to bring headphones next time though. I chose to watch a YouTube video with subtitles instead, which was fine cuz it was a Did You Know Gaming video (very wordy/informative).

But, most of my Christmas shopping was done on eBay this year. I bought like a small handful of things offline, however.

(Dec 12th, 2021, 03:51 AM)Cory Wrote:Man, I actually forgot eBay exists because I've not used it or heard it mentioned in forever. XD I think the last time I used it was to order some rare gaming plushies a few years ago.
Going out to a concert tonight of the person @ShiraNoMai works for. I think we get in free since she works under him which I hope is the case because I wouldn't really care to go if it was going to cost money. Not that he isn't necessarily worth it, I just wouldn't be so heavily inclined to go.
Edit: And randomly her name colour suddenly works in posts again when she gets tagged. It hasn't done that for me in months for some reason. XD
Edit 2: Oh no there it goes after I edited this post because the system doesn't know what to do with her apparently.

Trying to remember if that's the one that has a ridiculously huge area set aside at Christmas or if I'm thinking of a different one.
Yup that was at Meadowcroft, and yeah they had a big area for a German market with Christians related things, a second with like bigger decorations, a normal area I didn't go in then finally another area for Xmas stuff where that stand was. There were another soft toy stand too which had dinosaurs on.
Great you got 47/50 then.
I haven't used eBay in a long while too. Hope the concert was enjoyable.
RE: Universal Chat Thread - Cory - Dec 13th, 2021
@Moonface: eBay still remains my primary online shopping source.

I did however try this alcoholic ice cream out and it was actually really good: teh cream of alcoholic ice
@Cory: I guess you primarily shop for things that other people are selling rather than getting brand new things from the likes of Amazon?
RE: Universal Chat Thread - Cory - Dec 13th, 2021
Yu-Gi-Oh cards and products have been my main item of online purchases, so even if they're used as long as they're in near mint condition I don't mind eBay one bit!
RE: Universal Chat Thread - Moonface - Dec 14th, 2021
Ah. How many cards do you own at this point @Cory?

RE: Universal Chat Thread - ShiraNoMai - Dec 14th, 2021
I still have about a few hundred YuGiOh cards somewhere. All pre-Synchro and Link of course. Probably won't be worth squat considering they're in plastic bags and in "very good" condition lol
The concert went well. That venue we went to went through a massive overhaul/change since I was last there about 15 years ago to see Def Leppard/REO Speedwagon/Styx. MUCH better acoustics, which was important. But good golly gosh, you'd have thought we were in 2019 with the way all them people were packed in there. And only maybe a handful of people in total masked. Unsurprising in the end, honestly, but still disappointing.

Americans are going to do what Americans are going to do.
Speaking of Americans our destiny still has yet to be fulfilled. >_>

Worked an 11+ hour shift today and been trying to get the aches to go away. I really didn't expect Christmas time to have more workload than Thanksgiving build-up but apparently I was mistaken, or this just happened to be a conveniently timed event of having a lot of work today.
