If you're using the plastic collar stays that came in your shirts you are wrong.

please tell me how this makes a fucking difference

Plastic stays work well enough at keeping the collar in shape, but simply don't weigh enough to keep the collar points down in the position they looks best in.

Also you can't lock pick your way out of a mexican jail with the plastic ones.

I don't even use collar stays

hampster · « **Reply #4864 on:** May 16, 2013, 01:56:55 PM »

I'm so far out of the fashion loop I didn't even know collar stays were a thing

nudemacusers · « **Reply #4865 on:** May 16, 2013, 02:17:09 PM »

What's there to be upset about? My fine italian-made fused collar dress shirts don't need them, and my stylish, fashionable sport shirts are too lightweight and do not need the fuss of a stay. ironing > magnets

i bought some lunch that was jerk chicken, pork steak, a polish, some sweet potatoes, some greens, and a soda all for $10. now i feel so fat that it hurts to move. also i bought some ice cream

Robo · « **Reply #4871 on:** May 16, 2013, 11:05:18 PM »

Most of my shirts have button-down collars. And all the good stays I own are stolen from various people, but I rarely have use for them.

Got an Email from one of my credit card companies, stating that their reward points can now be used on Amazon. Linked it up and got $430 to use. Finally bought myself a gaming PC- dirty poor budget version.

http://www.amazon.com/CybertronPC-Escape-GM4222D-Gaming-Desktop/dp/B00A2J4YZG/ref=sr_ob_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368813965&sr=8-1

I know it's not the best thing out there, but it seems like a good entry-level budget rig. It's only going to cost me $268, and it's my birthday tomorrow so I know I'll be getting some extra cash anyway. Will probably get a much bigger HDD ASAP.

bork · « **Reply #4873 on:** May 18, 2013, 12:55:19 PM »

It came without any bloatware installed!

As you said, seems like a decent entry-level rig and for $268 it's a sweet deal, but good lord is that thing ugly.

It looks a bit better in person, but yeah- "gaming PC" seems to generally mean "hideous 'aggressive' designs for 13 year olds." It's just a case and it's gonna be put somewhere out of the way, so it's no big deal to me.

I tried SSF4 Arcade Edition and it ran smooth like butter at 1920x1080. The Resident Evil Revelations demo was

and also ran on high end settings at 1920x1080. I didn't think this PC was going to be able to handle games at those resolution settings, TBH. Now I'm gonna be torn on buying games for PC versus consoles.

Rufus · « **Reply #4877 on:** May 18, 2013, 03:34:45 PM »

Neither SSF4 nor REvelations are particularly demanding though, keep that in mind. Always look at benchmarks to avoid disappointment or spontaneous GAS (gear acquisition syndrome).

bork · « **Reply #4878 on:** May 19, 2013, 12:10:50 AM »

Compared to what I've been used to using, that is amazing.

I didn't buy it but my wife and I test drove a 2013 Chrysler 300C John Varvatos last night and I'm totally down for that pimpmobile. It's like something Dolemite might dream up after a night of karate and fucking bitches. 20 inch rims, beats by Dre, orgasmic dual sunroof..... I know I'm too old for this shit buy I want it, bad.

I never thought I'd lay down 50 g's for a Chrysler but damn... I just might.

Just today I learned that Under Defeat (one of the last DC games ever) got a retail release for the PS3, and it actually came out in the US! Ordered:

This is a Father's day gift from my wife. I had gone over 7 years without one. It already has my grubby prints on it.

14k white gold 4mm wedding band. I lost my original one in a sink in a NICU my son was in after he was born. You had to wash your hands to get in and out of there. She paid almost 3 times as much over the original one. Gold prices be cray.

Nothing can be as bad as that one.

My HTC evo 3d just started to do some crazy shit this past week. I couldn't afford the interruptions with communicating. Thankfully I found a damn good deal on these:

Two HTC one's one black(mine) the other silver. For $79 after 2 year contract, plus I get $125 bucks in google play per phone, and best of all no tax! Fuck you very much california where it legal to charge tax on a item based on "actual cost," we all know those phones don't really cost $799.

Oh I also got some Dogfish Head as a treat for the 4th. Got a 4pack of these:

So smooth its criminal!

This is a strange one, I inadvertently found out that if you drink this and have a peanut butter cookie it tastes like PB&J. Not very sweet, but you will noticed the sweeter notes.

Not pictured is the soda stream... Don't buy one if you have animals. The noise from the fucking thing scared the literal shit out of our cats. Thank god I got it from costco, it's going back. Soda wasn't bad though!
