Thanks Mom and Dad!

Unless they wore off, they would either have to charge a ton or go out of business since more than a pair of wings or two is too many.

What if people broadcasted their emotions or thoughts with a bubble or diamond over their head Sims style?

Realistically I think I would end up putting my money into games, computer parts, or venture into headphones.

I always consider all the cool climbing, fishing, and slacklining gear I could have if I never bought a mech. It's one of the main reasons I'm mostly done with keyboard spending. We'll see how that goes.

Teach a man to fish, and he'll eat for the rest of his life..

--except freezing winters
--and he'll actually still starve most of the time

Teach a man to keyboard, and PROGRAM....

--He'll never starve for as long as they need java-monkeys..

You really think they aren't?

It's ok, you weren't the only one. Also, airplane tickets are expensive for one person, an entire family's worth? Yeesh.

Ur not missing nothing''

I h8 airplanes.. the lines, the luggage, the packing, the waiting.. OMFG.. it's like going to six-flags, only a far less exciting ride, and a line that's 10x longer, AND they give you 50/50 odds of food poisoning..
