Title: whatja get for christmas yall
Post by: toAst on December 25, 2015, 07:17:44 PM
i got a lot of bad things this month but these last two days have been alright and probably even very good!!

yesterday i was walking around the hood and found a god damned fender precision bass on the sidewalk this woman said she was throwing it out because the strings are broken and she doesnt know what to do with it or how to play it. its red and white like christmas and its gorgeous

i also visited my family and got some gift cards and underwear because thats how christmas is when youre 26. i think its kind of ironic that i didnt get any socks and i actually really need socks badly. who hopes to get socks for christmas and doesnt even get them haha

ok well merry christmas you weirdos

A headset, a wireless charger, two t-shirts, some socks (which I actually don't mind) a GameStop Gift Card, a Wii U Pro Controller, a Cribbage set & a board shaped like MSU, A DaVinci Invention book with a model kit, and satisfaction that my cousins had fun and liked my project I had on our Christmas Eve party.

Overall, I'm feeling pretty good about what I got, especially for someone who litterally had nothing in mind (except for those expensive and impossible gifts).

On the one true day of Christmas, my family gave to me...

Also got some philosophy books I wanted because I'm a boring ass mother****er.

PHILOSOPHY is not boring! YOU are not boring! Go west, young Boby, and make this world awesome once more!

sh**ton of money, which combined with some saving is buying me a new GFX card. I just can't decide between this super cheap R9 390x (https://www.overclockers.co.uk/sapphire-radeon-r9-nitro-390x-8192mb-gddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-with-backplate-11241-04-20g-gx-376-sp.html), an MSI r390, a Gigabyte G1 970 (both around £280) or the cheapest 970/390 I can find (around £230).

Help me GTM!

A Smart Balance Wheel (aka this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaroWOVZvjk)) and some Hyperdunk 2013s. That's pretty much it. I might get some Yeezy's as a late christmas present if i win a raffle though.
