I'm currently bidding $50 on a $500 espresso machine. There's something the matter with it that I think will put off most prospective buyers but research indicates is a trivially easy fix.

*heavy breathing*

I do love the trivial to fix items. I ordered a laptop like that, and I was like replace hard drive, replace power supply replace battery. Fully operational. 175 bucks, and that was 8 years ago when laptops were a bit spendy.

I'm calling shenanigans on Geth!

Oh that new chat as I wake up

Brand new day

Fuzzy Cumulonimbus Cloud

I have a hangover and should go to work.

I love Jewish food -- especially the classic Ashkenazy Eastern European stuff.

But I seriously could not eat that stuff regularly. No wonder the Jews love to kvetch.

Jake, I was just gonna post in the Star Wars thread but didn't because it was actually like, not meta discussion

But that shuttle? Did we not talk about it? I'd forgotten about it, but I think GZ claimed it as payment for us letting those lovers go or something, and GZ is serious about that, because it needs a way to leave the group for short periods of time to go to markets and purchase illegal weapons.

This chat was rigged in favor of Jacobkosh by Russian dictator Vladimir "P10" Putin! His fingerprints are all over Geth's backup selection!

Huh, there's a Taco Bell in Nottingham. Off you pop, Bogart. Return with photos and tales of cosmic horror.

Hangovers are gods way of reminding you that you are alive.

@Mojo_Jojo @Organichu my credit back is even easier than Chus

All I type is price paid and upload a receipt. They search all the stuff for 2 months automatically

We also have a Hooters. It is always, always rammed.

9. WHAT DOES “SUPREME” MEAN?

To “Supreme” your product means to add tomatoes and sour cream. Go on, give it a try!

I just tried to watch and I can't do it, I feel like a voyeur.

I should eBay all the 40K and Space Marine stuff that sites in my parents house gathering dust.

But I am lazy, so maybe I won't. Also eBay deleted my account because I didn't use it after a brief flurry of buying comics ten years ago. Are there services where you can just tip a box of crap on to someone and have them sell it on eBay for a percentage? Like Catherine Keener did in the movies.

Essentially what I would like is for someone to take the things I own and don't want any more and give me money.

Supreme Black Forest Gateau was a mistake

I am on my final serving of my homemade matzo ball soup from this weekend.

It has been fantastic. Though I am ready for something different. I mean I got like 6 meals out of a single pot of soup though.

Tonight is spinach/ricotta ravioli and a salad. Tomorrow though I think is going to be salmon patties. Maybe tonight. Salmon patties, box mac and cheese because lazy, and a salad.

Bristol had one of those briefly. Clearly it couldn't compete with the Stoke's Croft "massage" parlor with its enormous "DISCREET ENTRANCE VIA JAMAICA STREET" sign and red lights.

People were saying IT is chill.

I am currently staring at a 50 client 3 server system that may be infected top to bottom with a nasty but of malware.

Also, they decided to get rid of the in-house servers and use a dedicated provider and fired their IT guy without warning

These two events may be related, because all of the Antivirus software was off their servers.

I think dealing with people is the worst part of pretty much every job. There aren't a lot of people that actually like doing customer service. Thankfully I only have to keep 6-10 customers really happy. It really narrows your focus.

I thought we agreed that GZ isn't allowed to purchase weapons retail because of the law enforcement interest that would draw?

There are people whose jobs aren't just a meaningless, soulcrushing exercise in frustration who can afford rent?

The last time I ate at Taco Bell I had a 7 layer burrito because I figured it had nostalgic value

I forgot about how 7 layer burritos are 50% hot and 50% cold

It was unnerving

Every goddamn woman online is a jet setting wine connoisseur who is right at this moment wind surfing off the coast of Borneo or hiking Pike's Peak. And if you aren't literally Indiana Jones levels of adventurous and traveled. You are The Most Boring Man Alive^tm.

Ya know. I know my shortcomings. I know I'm boring. But damn. I thought there would be more women who would, you know, enjoy a quite evening at home a bit more.

Lol there are, keep looking

I think people often oversell themselves, but that still surprises me. I got a ton of women who liked sitting at home doing nerdy things and watching Netflix. Maybe that is regional+queer bias.

hmm this is interesting

I wonder how many are presenting what they think is their most romantic/appealing side

TL DR

I Ebay'd all my M:tG cards last year that I bought when I was in high school, and made a tidy few hundred bucks. I made the risky choice to ship them in a sleeve and toploader with just a stamped envelope, meaning that if the buyer disputed I had no way to prove I actually sent the card. Many of the cards sold were in the $30-70 range, but the volume of cards meant that I saved ~$5 on each one sent for the cost of a stamp and materials rather than with a tracked envelope.

I did have one buyer dispute, and lost the card without being compensated. On a Nevinyrral's Disk that sold for $3.

We have contacts on SoroSuub, though. GZ has a hookup, and isn't interested in anything law enforcement even could track. I have not parted from my EXTREMELY ILLEGAL disruptor rifle, and have never not had at least one war-crime gas grenade on me since I got those things.

I literally cannot get rid of these cables faster than I get them.

The only ones I seem to have a hard time getting ahold of are those 3 pronged ones with the circles.
