Wow... I can't believe my girlfriend got this for me!

[mattcube64]

We had a conversation in passing a couple weeks ago about how I've always wanted this "Apple poster with Jim Henson on it." I said I could just go print one, but you can buy fancy originals online... they're just not worth the price.

Well, yesterday, she hands me this shipping tube and says it's for me. Inside:

An original. It had to of cost at least $70... and she just bought it outta the blue for me.

I plan on getting a nice frame for it in the next few days.

And obligatory pics of the girl, lol:

Waiting in line at the Apple Store with me on Friday:

I love the Think Different Posters from Apple especially the einstein one. I'm quite jelous, you have the kermit one!!:D

[point665]

Where you guys finding these mac girls at? JK

Awesome gift from here - congrats.

[joshwest]

awesome man cool poster, ive always wanted the Miles Davis one or Sinatra.... your girl looks like a girl i kinda know.. where are you located?

[cwedl]

Hey

What a nice poster! would look good in a black frame.

Your one lucky guy, your girlfriends generous and pretty!

[combatcolin]

I really would not put any pictures of yourself or your girlfriend on the internet.

But saying that, cool girlfriend!

[mattcube64]

I live near Kansas City. That'd be weird if you recognized her, lol. Where are you at?

And yeah, I can't wait to get a real nice black frame for it... It's just impossible to find a 11x17" frame... I'm gonna have to get a custom framing job. But, it's definitely worth it.

And yeah... I used to be really sensitive about posting pics on the internet... But, I just make sure I don't put anything that is even remotely "dirty." Plus, I've made sure with her it's okay to post pics of her before.

EDIT: And yeah... how I found a Mac girl is beyond me. She's been using a G5 iMac for a couple years now... and she even saved up so she could get an iPhone with me.

[viccles]

You guys look like a nice couple :)

[Dagless]

Is your last name Kay and do you have a brother called Peter?

[mattcube64]

Is your last name Kay and do you have a brother called Peter?

[mcarnes]

Wow. Don't toss that one, she's a keeper. :)

[Markleshark]

[ModestPenguin]

You guys are very cute together.

And she buys you nice things.

Best of luck to you.

PS: Awesome poster.

[steamboat26]

Sweet poster, but given the thread title, i really didn't think this was where it was going :D
I really have to get my mind out of the gutter :eek:

[ricgnzlzcr]

For my birthday my girlfriend bought me a subscription to Mac Life. She had the magazines set to be delivered to her door so that I have to stay with her for the duration of the subscription or else I lose it.

Break up with her or risk losing the subscription? Life and it's dilemmas.



In case you find this baby I'm just joking!!!!

[seahawk09]

Hey Mattcube64,

That young lady is a keeper she really cares for you if she did that out of the blue wow keep that picture safe and another thing, put a ring on her finger.:)

[mkrishnan]

That's cute! You need to also post pictures of whatever you do with the poster, once you frame it. :)

[mattscott306]

Wow, what a great girl, very cute too.

[MrSmith]

She's far too good (aka pretty) for you. Give me her number. :cool: :D Older men are more interesting.

[e-clipse]

You guys look great together.

[checkflag]

shes a keeper.

[mattcube64]

Alright, this afternoon she and I went up to Hobby Lobby to custom order a frame... when we came across a "do-it-yourself" framing kit. We bought the stuff, put it together (together) at my house, and voila':

Back at my elementary school we had a bunch of those posters in the computer lab. All of em - einstein, kermit, the one with the old guy with his shirt off, and a few others I believe.

[Littleodie914]

...the one with the old guy with his shirt off......Ghandi? :rolleyes:

[d_and_n5000]

...Ghandi? :rolleyes:

Oh, my algebra teacher had that one. She used to have it hanging in her mobile classroom, back when my school had space issues, and then after that she lost it. No idea where it is. I told her that she needed to find it jiffy quick, because even though its laminated, it would probably still fetch a pretty penny on eBay if she ever sold it. Nevermind that though, it just looks so dang cool, I'd never sell it.

[Abstract]

...Ghandi? :rolleyes:

There's 2 funny things about this.

1. zwhaler referred to Gandhi as "the old guy with his shirt off" (which made me laugh as well :p ).
2. The guy who rolled his eyes at the ignorance didn't spell Gandhi correctly.

[Slvgx]

Somebody's MB is about to take a spill.

[DoFoT9]

forgive my idiotness but who's Gandhi???

[BigPrince]

Im jeolous. ;)

lol thanks it all makes sense now!!!!!!!

[Littleodie914]

2. The guy who rolled his eyes at the ignorance didn't spell Gandhi correctly.Aw freaking... I could tell you it was honestly a typo, but I don't think that would fix things.

:rolleyes:

[CelticBhoy]

yes, definately hold onto that one, cos tbh she's out of your league.

in saying that, I wish you both all the best.

ps the Peter Kay thingy is in reference to a British comedian
