Occasionally sale prices motivate me to grab the item myself (note: not a euphemism), so I like seeing prices.

Panasonic 46GT30a

My first plasma, and it looks incredible. Just been running Planet Earth blu ray all day.

Came with a copy of Avatar 3D so it's not all good news

I have a 60" Panasonic plasma TV. It's fucking fantastic.

Kinda wished I hadn't bought the last one since once I examined the contents more closely, I saw the majority of it was reprints of stuff I already have in other collections, but the other two look pretty good, especially the Joshi one.

buy The Weird.

Quote

From Lovecraft to Borges to Gaiman, a century of intrepid literary experimentation has created a corpus of dark and strange stories that transcend all known genre boundaries. Together these stories form The Weird, and its practitioners include some of the greatest names in twentieth and twenty-first century literature.

Exotic and esoteric, The Weird plunges you into dark domains and brings you face to face with surreal monstrosities. You won’t find any elves or wizards here...but you will find the biggest, boldest, and downright most peculiar stories from the last hundred years bound together in the biggest Weird collection ever assembled.

The Weird features 110 stories by an all-star cast, from literary legends to international bestsellers to Booker Prize winners: including William Gibson, George R. R. Martin, Stephen King, Angela Carter, Kelly Link, Franz Kafka, China Miéville, Clive Barker, Haruki Murakami, M. R. James, Neil Gaiman, Mervyn Peake, and Michael Chabon.

it's 1200 pages. I imported my copy before there was an announcement of the American release. It is fucking amazing.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #3914 on:** April 10, 2012, 07:01:14 AM »

I have no idea why I bought the latter two. I don't know when I'd get around to playing those games, let alone follow through with completing them. I need to curb this type of impulse spending before it gets out of hand $:-\$

For those that are like "WTF Gundam that's all moonspeak what the hell is that game?", it's an Evangelion pachinko game for the PS3.

I have never understood the Pachinko-on-console genre, but I have an even more difficult time grokking westerners who import them. I've bought a mess of them for friends -- I think it's an ownership/completionist thing in their case.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #3921 on:** April 14, 2012, 08:39:43 PM »

Needed something for the tv in the master bedroom. I really just was looking for a soundbar and a separate sub, but came across this for $800. I could probably find a better deal somewhere else, but screw it I'm lazy.

At least it sounds nice.

Yeah ECSM is great but my favorite by his will always be Movement in Still Life...

G The Resurrected · « **Reply #3928 on:** April 18, 2012, 02:10:40 AM »

Yeah Movement in still life is great, it was what got me into BT. I still remember going into a used cd shop in SLO picking it up and blind buying it. Was a great cd to listen to on the journey back home, I kept it on repeat the whole way home.

This thread is for WDYB so I bought something

Bestbuy fucked up my Witcher 2 and cancelled my preorder at 5am today for instore pick up. So I had to go to the store at opening to get the game. Rolled in got it and the tshirt then tried to purchase it. The damn system at Bestbuy was fucked and wouldn't let me purchase it. So they took a regular edition and charged me for that. And to top it off they gave me $20 off anything I wanted in store. Since I was also in there for Mission Impossible I got that. They even wanted to give me a penny back since it was $19.99.

I later got a OG witcher 2 for PC at target for $19.99 which gets a free upgrade to the enhanced edition from GOG.com.

(Image removed from quote.)

I love that gun so fucking much.

Mupepe · « **Reply #3951 on:** May 01, 2012, 03:22:38 PM »

It's such a reliable little workhorse. I do wish I had gotten the previous years version with the straight serrations and metal trigger though. I know they say polymer triggers are reliable and such but I just hate having a plastic trigger. I'll go a smith soon and see how much for a proper trigger job. I'd like it to be a bit lighter anyways. I can apparently get it down to around 3 lbs which just springs but I'll see what my options are.

Groogrux · « **Reply #3952 on:** May 01, 2012, 07:03:31 PM »

I can definitely see the want/need for the metal trigger. Of course, you could take some weight off by going down to the regular clip instead of the extended one.

But my god, isn't that just the most comfortable gun you've ever held?

Mupepe · « **Reply #3953 on:** May 01, 2012, 07:13:34 PM »

It really is, but the problem is that it's only super comfortable when I have the extended mag in. It's too small for my hands otherwise.

But even with the 10 round mag the trigger pull seems a bit janky. I love the gun though so I'll find a nice balance somehow

Groogrux · « **Reply #3954 on:** May 01, 2012, 09:24:17 PM »

Yeah, I was the same way with it. I didn't like the feel of it without the extended mag. That would only be a problem in California though...

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #3955 on:** May 03, 2012, 11:11:02 PM »

Grabbed a few uguu CDs this week - one ended up being a bootleg of course :/ (bebop). Stupid belief that buying it through Amazons private seller system was any better than ebay. Live n learn. In the meantime wheeeeee.

I will give myself credit for finding a non-bootleg millennium actress ost a while back though.

Using only toilet paper after bidets does seem barbaric. You can try baby wipes instead of carrying a water gun around with you.

Yeah, it totally does. I may try the wet wipes, since the squirt gun makes a noise that baffles the stall's passers-by.

I changed the spring and did a of DIY mod and the trigger pull was lightened quite a bit. Im guessing 3 or 3.5 lbs. Still not as smooth as a 1911 but it's much better now. Im gonna also pick up a s&w shield, Beretta nano or (preferably) a colt mustang if I can find it. Just something for ccw during summer months. I'll be getting a colt cco or defender for fall/winter later.
