 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
If you had a ton of cash to blow, why not get a nice high-end DSLR with a bunch of lenses?

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
Now I feel like I have to defend my choice without knowing anything about cameras -.-. I'm not even sure what the difference between this DSLR and other high-end ones are. I like that this one does 1080i video too though. I guess I chose one that I might be able to afford at some point but you're right I should have been greedier and picked every lens available too though I haven't the slightest clue what the difference would be between them.

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
 So expensive. $16 for one 16" pair. It wouldn't be so bad if I only needed one or two, but there are so many different gauges and lenghts required for various things that it's $300+ for a set that will cover most everything. Right now I'm knitting on $6(still outrageous) Susan Bates circs that don't have a smooth join and the yarn gets hung up and I have to pause to pull the stitches up the needle and it's driving me nuts. But I already have three pairs of them, so I'm not blowing even more money to replace them. Gah. I need a job.

Video games of all sorts, including consoles such as sega genises for games like castlevania.

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
I'd visit japan to see the life sized gundam and other stuff (yes, I'd actually totally go out for that) *_* and Akihabara. Then I'd either live there or in the southern part of germany(been to bavaria once, there are such beautiful places there, almost like straight out of a fantasy rpg *_*). Or somewhere else where I can see nice untouched nature surrounded by huge amounts of forests and mountains rather than concrete, people and cars. And then a comp even more powerful than the current one, a nice 26" replacement for my messy secondary screen (and maybe yet more screens :p). I can think of a few other things I'd like to have, but those wouldn't make a difference either and eventually end up getting in the way and wasting space.

Yeah, Bavaria would be nice. I think that's where Werner Herzog's Nosfertu was filmed.

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
I'd buy the rare and (I believe) out-of-print Polish set of Dekalog:  It has, by far, the best video quality out of all current releases of that TV series. You can see DVD edition comparisons here (this is for the people here who're into Krzysztof Kieslowski films - I know that at least !!! and DionysianStanza are).

I would blow it on my credit card so I can use it at the hotel.

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
To be fair, most female masturbatory aids can be used by males as well, but most find it rather uncomfortable to do so. If I had a penis I'd be sticking it everywhere, though. I just think men lack imagination.

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
I've decided that I would also buy books. Lots and lots of books. And maybe an Xbox 360 and a few games.  That's a pretty well balanced breakfast, I think.

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
I know what you mean. The race which is most familiar to yourself is usually the race you find most attractive. I admit that I wasn't attracted to non-Caucasian females until I became used to the physical traits present in other races. I now find females of other races to be just as appealing as Caucasian females. I used to feel racist for not finding non-white females attractive, and actually felt guilty about it, but I now know that this is normal as I've talked to many people of various races who are/were the same. There aren't nearly as many interracial couples out there as there "should" be. I'm guessing that this all has to do with races preferring their "own kind".

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
All the asian girls I know are obsessed with pretty white boys. Blonde haired, blue eyes pretty white boys. I don't care for race, but I have a love of bellies.

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
non asians usually do say that asian girls are are only into white/black/hispanics and not asian men. there are ALOT but not as many people as you think there are. those girls usually have a fetish or some kind of racial inferiority complex. the others dont care too much about race and will date any charming guy that comes their way. just to be clear most asian women prefer asian men. usually men of the same ethnic background.
but yeah back to topic...

 Re: If you had a lot of money to blow right now...
Saitek Cyborg RAT 7 5600 dpi mouse. Amazon has it for $76. It's fully adjustable, in weight, size, thumb rests, pinky rests, everything. No matter that I have small hands and have never once thought, "Hey, my mouse is really uncomfortable!" No matter that I payed $40 for my SteelSeries Kinzu, which goes up to 3200 dpi but hasn't actually been changed from the default of 800. It's beautiful. And it makes me feel elite.  Aaaahhh, it's so cool! I have $50 in my Amazon account, my mom is buying giftcards to order Christmas presents on my account to take advantage of my AmazonPrime. If I can somehow keep like ten bucks in change from that, forget buying thermal compound, and getting my parents to buy my Kinzu to replace their crappy broken mouse for $20, I can get it! I won't even miss the money, Christmas is coming, I always get money, and I even have money left over from my birthday still...It's such a waste, but it's...so incredible.
