    I think it is usually the way that those who really know what they are doing, are much less boastful than those who think they know.

    Given the price I paid, this could also go in the Awesome thread.

    That's the other thing that ****s me off about the other owners. They constantly brag about being faster than some absurdly-faster-than-our-cars car as if the driver was playing the same game they were. It's as sad as it is hilarious.

    I don't understand how anyone can have that bravado about driving on a track. I've done it for one day and it's A: exhausting, B: infinitely harder than the professionals make it look. If nothing else it reminded me, going around a short track with Ben Collins at the wheel, how shitty a driver I am compared to professionals. But, more than that, it's a ****ing focus. It will never be that fast in any of the owners hands. Sure some of them have 500whp but Jesus. It's a brick with a chamfered front.

    The other day my buddy in the USA bought a Asus RX 570 Strix for his sister. It was half price, at $139 and he got $120 worth of games with it that he was 100% buying any way.

    $19 for a RX 570 Strix. Even I can't beat that lol

    I approve of the tape gun, it will make things so much easier when you're packing up.

    The only way you could beat that is getting paid to have a GPU :)

    I have no finger nails due to anxiety, and I don't particularly like running them around my front teeth to find the end lol. So yeah, will make things much speedier. For expensive stuff like my headphones I've got some duck clear tape thats about 3x thicker than the brown shite. Mind you I will be transporting those myself.

    New handmade skinning/scalping knife. $20. Little country store had them, just need to make it a new sheath as it has none. Saw blade and antler, fits perfectly in my hand.

    And then four of these. This tape is the best I've ever used.

    Pair of cheapo speakers, Creative Pebble.
    Have to concur with most reviews I found, they're not fantastic, but sound surprisingly nice for the price. More than good enough for youtube videos and games in any case (for proper listening I've got headphones).

    Duck duvet too. Been very attached to feathers since being a child, I hate polyester duvets.

    Nice as long as your not allergic to down like I am. I think I offend a night concierge once at an upscale hotel when I demand they replace the down duvet and pillows. "But sir, you have received a free room upgrade which includes down bedding..."
