Crowdfund a HHKB for inanis with me! [DONE] {ARRIVED AT INANIS COMPOUND}

[absyrd]

[FUNDING COMPLETE] Thank you, GH!

inanis has been a rock-solid friend throughout this whole Destiny ordeal. She is ALWAYS there to talk to me, cheer me up, offer advice, etc. She donated a brand new kindle tablet during the beginning of Destiny's care. She has donated cash, including just the other day when she got a bonus from her job (you know... the one she complains about in WBY thread all the time). When times were the toughest, she raffled off her entire kb collection to really kick off an amazing push in the gofundme campaign that helped save Destiny's main mode of transportation.

I'd like to pay her back by getting her the board she should have gotten from the beginning... a HHKB. I wish I could just buy it for her myself, but I could use a little help.

A $5 donation will buy you happiness and the chance at the following:
1 x Booper MX Lilith Cap (has a tiny bubble on outside edge of stem... does not affect functionality or aesthetics)
2 x White Topre PBT Space Bar
1 x Tai Hao Dolch MX Set (from Harry's GB)

You may donate more than $5 and receive another entry.

I will be taking gift payments through PayPal, so PM me for my email addy and when you send, PLEASE put your GH username in the notes section.

I'll keep the OP updated with the names of the donors and amount of entries unless specifically requested otherwise. This way people will know exactly when we reach our funding goal and so y'all don't think I'm shady. Looking to just get the $220 + shipping. Type-S is unnecessary. 

Thank you! And please thank this wonderful woman for being such an amazing member of GH!

Bwahahaha. jd... you are TOO good to everyone, too. And always leading by example!

[inanis]

I don't even know what to do with myself right now. The amout of emotions running through me is unexplainable.

For now - I'll just say Thank you.

I don't think you fully understand. I'll literally go panhandle on the mean streets of Doylestown to get this done.

[cryptokey]

PM'd.  I hope we get this board funded!

[absyrd]

Almost there already.

Get those donations in!

inanis is loved.

Damn this is going quick. I would donate but I'm I have to divert funds for my secret santa victim.  )

Donate $5 anonymously and it'll be just like secret santa.

Just playin'. inanis is surely happier you donated a brobot to Des.

[whmeltonjr]

I'm at a football game but I'm in. Can pay when I get home tonight.

Sounds good! I'm running out to get wyfe's migraine meds and grocery cravings, so I'll post when I get back.

inanis always puts others before herself. I think we may have broke her emo-style, though. She won't reply which color HHKB she wants. Haha.

EDIT: nickheller, a constant Destiny supporter, has just donated $15. You rock!

[inanis]

Hey I replied! I was a little slow though. Outside raking up leaves, freezing my behind off.

Also, I'm struggling to properly express myself.

[HoffmanMyster]

Doing some mental math, it looks like we're real close. I'm in for whatever is left. Don't enter me in that raffle though, I don't need more keycaps. 

[absyrd]

At $195 and two people want to cover "the rest".

Sending PMs. Will refund a few if we go over.

inanis has gone full dark side and has chosen black printed. Will be ordered tonight.

[HoffmanMyster]

inanis has gone full dark side and has chosen black printed.

Nevermind, I'm out. 

jkjk.  But she needs some brighter colors on there to liven it up.

I'll see what I can dig up.

[absyrd]

Okay. We're funded!

If you EVER think GH isn't great, refer to this thread!

Denied from buying something for someone.  Sucks, man.


But I'm glad this was so quick!    Kinda shocked at how little time it took.

Find her some "color" like you said for that black on black hhkb.
She is punk rock af. Some kind of bright something...

[absyrd]

Oh... and only jd, crypto, and nickheller are in for drawing.

Unless they all want out, too. Hahaha.

Someone(s) getting this stuff!

I'll send some accent colors as well. Please PM me an address to mail them.

[inanis]

You guys need to stop giving me stuff! What am I going to do with you lot.

I've never met a more generous group of individuals in all my years. I sent a PM to Absyrd offering to pay the rest, but he ignored me. I don't know why I expected otherwise. I am surprised, humbled, a little embarassed, happy and probably like 50 other things by this. I will find a way to repay all of your kindness, I promise.

Send me and jd your addy, please. I lost it again.

And don't you see the point of this? You've already gone above and beyond to be so sweet to the community. Nobody hesitated to take notice of that and give back.

Just accept that you are liked, ffs.

[HoffmanMyster]

Just accept that you are liked, ffs.

Yeah, seriously.  Ugh.

[inanis]

Just accept that you are liked, ffs.

Yeah, seriously.  Ugh.

I'm trying! This is new for me!

[absyrd]

I need jd, crypto, and nick to tell me which items they are interested in. These goodies are getting mailed to somebody!

[1swt2gs]

You have given so much to the community! (: Time you get something in return!

I'm getting kicked off my PC for a special message...

[HoffmanMyster]

I'm getting kicked off my PC for a special message...

Tell wyfe to get her own PC. 

[abswyfe]

Hey inanis
You're cool n all
But **** THE PATRIOTS
You goin down tomorrow

    

But seriously we all love you

[abswyfe]

Hahaha
I have a laptop and an iphone
But I've been watching over abs shoulder for most of this and don't feel like firing it up

Hi, Hoff!

[inanis]

Hey inanis
You're cool n all
But **** THE PATRIOTS
You goin down tomorrow

    

But seriously we all love you

Now I really feel bad, cause the Pats are going to trouce the Giants and there is nothing that is going to get in there way. I wish it wasn't so, but Tom Brady is unstoppable. #Truth

But your undying love for a team that won't win doesn't make me think any less of you. After all, I've grown up being a Sox fan.

Much love. 

[HoffmanMyster]

Tom Brady is unstoppable. #Truth

#Denial

[abswyfe]

Tom Brady should play with his helmet off so I can see his pretty face all game

[inanis]

It's okay that your in denial, knowing is half the battle.

Tom Brady should play with his helmet off so I can see his pretty face all game

That guy is like 90% forehead, and too white bread for my style. I need a little darkness thrown in there.

Don't feel bad, he ignored my PM too  ) )

She thinks he is cute, but I'm pretty sure she wants his helmet off so his head can get smashed by JPP's mangled hand.

Oops, missed your post. I'm good with any of them honestly.

[cryptokey]

Since I donated the least, give preference to jd and nick!  Other than that, I've never owned an artisan cap before so the Booper would be pretty sweet.  Next would be the MX set then topre spacebars since I don't use topre.  I'm happy with anything though. 

Let's see pics when her board arrives! 

[absyrd]

No preference given for how much you donated. I just put you and jd in a random name picker. Up to jd what he wants now.




EDIT: Even though we already funded, I still have PMs and FB messages from people who missed out on trying to get inanis something. NOT missed out on a sale event. GH FTW.

[whmeltonjr]

Glad you were able to fund it. Sorry I missed out. Enjoy the HHKB inanis!

[absyrd]

HHKB has landed. Awaiting report from inanis HQ.

[inanis]

Absyrd beat me too it! I just unboxed it and I'm using it to write this post. I'm kicking myself because I put off getting one of these for so long. This thing is incredible. All of you who love them are right. I can't wait to throw some of the fun stuff I've received on this to make it my own.

You guys are all amazing. All of you. I wish I had a proper way to say thank you - I will come up with something. The kindness you all have shown me means more than you could know.

Now I'm going to go take some pictures and show off how bad ass this black on black is. Goddamn, this thing is awesome. I might not even flip the spacebar.

[absyrd]

You already said thank you through your actions BEFORE receiving this. Just ****ing take it and be done being nice, will ya?

I knew as a heavy typer like myself who always bottoms out that the soft feels of HHKB tactility and landing would be perfect. Never had a doubt you'd be instantly in love.

I don't care if your thumb falls off, you get carpal tunnel, etc... don't flip that bar.

[HoffmanMyster]

I might not even flip the spacebar.

Okay just give it back then.  You're clearly not worthy.


I'm still bummed I wasn't able to contribute to this.  But oh well, happy to see you so happy! 

[absyrd]

I'm still bummed I wasn't able to contribute to this.

Sucks inanis has too many friends, doesn't it?

I still had people PM me days later asking if I was "sure there was enough money". Even after I told them all to stop. Hahaha. EDIT: Especially that giant jerk, Badwrench. He wouldn't leave me alone about it.
