One time when I was picking through the heavy trash, I got 2 original iBook boxes. BOOYA!

or ... umm... *scratches head*

I've been inside the Dallas Fed?
One time, this guy got me free starbucks because I helped him with his computer?
Once I got 2 free PBs because I asked for it.*
and a free PowerMac because some lady gave it to me. **
Umm.. I got a free PB from a scratch card. (but then I cried for an hour, so I think that's more.. not jealous, more "HAHA! LET'S LAUGH AT KT!")
I went to Infinite loop, but not INSIDE inside.. I peeked through windows of doors that were near the bathroom. (omg, there's a room with just... PMs and 30" displays.. at least 40 of them! IT WAS AMAZING!)
I've gotten free airfare to Washington State and LA.
A few years ago I was the #4 scottish fiddler in the nation.. even though I hate scottish fiddling with a passion. (I stay for the kilts)

OO! One time, I bought a bag of cashews, the woman didn't give me a receipt, and if you don't get a receipt, you get $5, so my bag of cashews cost the store $4.90. HA!!!
I think I win with the cashew story. :)


*I got 2 PB 150s. THEY BOOT INTO OS 7! SWEET!
** PowerMac 8100 oh yes

You won a PB off the scratch cards?! Dammit.. I SO wanted one. Meh.


If you want it, you can pry it out of my cold hands....

and replace it with a dual 2.7 PM with a buttload of RAM

/oh noes!
//"buttload" isn't misspelled in safari
///what does this mean...
////scratches chin

Well done. My girlfriend is very impressed – although not at the running away part of the story! :p

My boyfriend is very impressed.... :p He lurves the Dr...


edit for jealousy inducing thing: I have an amazing boyfriend (4th anniversary tomorrow - :) ) and I love my course, and will hopefully, assuming I get one :D , go on to love my job.

From a more materialistic point of view, a couple of months ago, I won a big fat set of Pantone markers. They're lovely <swoons>. :eek:
 
OO! I just thought of another one--

I can eat all the fried food I want, yet I never gain any weight.
ROCK!

I loves me the fried okra! :) :)


also, I can act like a lecherous old man, but no one notices because I'm a 17 y/o girl. Muahaha!

Just so's ya knows. That doesn't last forever. Sometime around 20 you can quit eating doughnuts and just tape them to your butt since that's where they're going to end up anyway. :p

In the meantime....enjoy while you can :)
 
wow, a blatant show off thread! how crazy!

I'm a direct descendant of the Duke of Bedfordshire. some semi-far off relatives own a couple of stately homes. my close family own a large house in Poland and a villa in Spain, overlooking the Mediterranean.
I've never had a job. ever. *thanks the money in the family* :)
i've got a little dog called Muffy who's the best dog for me.
i have never won a single thing in my life. apart from tickets to a convention that i couldn't attend!
my games have been featured in magazines all over Europe, America and *just recently* Australia.

i have... a pen called Monty! that cost about £5!
 
I've been to the European Court of Human Rights, and one of two EU parliament headquarters, both in Strasbourg, France. I've been to the EU commission headquarters and NATO headquarters, both in Brussels, Belgium. AND the EU court of justice in Luxembourg.

Maaan, you envy me.

Your furniture and décor is abhorrent (possibly save your leather period reproduction chairs and couch, if removed), and having too much stuff packed into a small space is disgusting, but oh. my. god. Your Chihulys are beautiful. Of those I am truly jealous.

Wow... first time I've ever heard the word "abhorrent" applied to my space. :p I agree, I need more space... but I don't want to move from where I am.

Glad you like the Chihulys, though.

I think I would have managed to smash every piece of art you have if I lived there. :eek:

I have 4 iPods, I might be getting a 2007/2008 Chevy Tahoe LTZ or LS trim. I might be able to fire a Tomhawk missile from a Destroyer depending if I get in to Annapolis :)

I design those destroyers that you desperately want to get on. I have fired every weapon on them...many times.
