Lots of great designs - all $13, until the wizard that controls t-shirt prices decides to make them cost twice as much at midnight tonight!

Just catching up on this (the US has been going through some stuff). Why is the mascot for the 2024 Paris a husband?

Most folks can't tolerate someone who hums four cubicles over. They are in no way prepared for the amount of singing Tom Bombadil thinks is perfectly normal for a Tuesday afternoon.

For whatever reason, this album is STILL not available in the US iTunes store.

Sure, it peaked at in US Billboard charts - but it was like #4 in the UK.

Ever been like "Gosh, I wish I could remove this useless modem from my PowerBook 1xx series laptop, and install a platform to attach a remote SD card slot for my ! If only someone would make such a thing?"

It's me. I'm someone. @Thangs3D

Love is all around,
No need to waste it.
You can never tell,
Why don't you take it?
You're going to make it after all!

If an #ebay seller can't figure out how to use completed/sold auctions to set the price, and rejects offers based on that real-world price, just use the rest of your chances to send them $1 offers.

You were never going to get that item anyway, so might as well have fun with it.

You'd think that if these views were organic (and not simply paid for), that they wouldn't all be within a few hundred of each other... it's almost like his entire YouTube channel was just another way for @gwssrox to try and trick people into trusting him?

  1. Partnered ewaste vendor requests unlock
  2. Apple emails iTunes account
  3. Owner releases device, or if no response, 90 day countdown starts

Would you have been friends with your parents in high school - IF they were lycanthropes? I guess they'll have to make 'Wolf to the Future' for us to find out.
