All, as Smarty and others have covered, all of your interests are piles of shit. But, some of your pile of shit is quite unknown to the peoples of the world.

WE MUST KNOW ABOUT THIS SHIT!

What shit do you enjoy? Why the fuck should I listen to you? [In General Because Recommendations Could Be Cigars, Fruits, Salads, Video Games, Beds, Statues, Web Sites, Etc]

A Video Game: Sky Blazer. What the fuck is Sky Blazer? Fuck you. It came out while you were busy playing shitty gen1 Playstation games. Theres a level that takes place entirely in the sky jumping from jetstream to jetstream careful not to fall to your death. A great overworld map, fun bosses, and just hard enough that you get teary eyed for the days when games were hard.

A Movie: Give Em' Hell Malone. It's like a noir story that is just a noir story. But it was made in 2009. All the classic noir trappings Femme Fatales, Hard Boiled Detectives etc. This movie won't meaning to love but it will be a fun action movie you probably haven't seen.

Also get yourself some Mighty Putty, and OxiClean

$10-$15
It's like sex on your head, sold pretty much as a sex toy because of how stupidly good it feels.
Basically you just put it ontop of your head and slide it so it kind of grabs onto your skull, then slide it back off.

Guys buy a gift card for Bath and Body Works before you start dating anyone. Your girlfriend will discover the peppermint lip gloss there and the shit costs almost $10 per tube. Don't get caught off guard because when one of her friends gets her to try it you will be demanded to get her a tube NOW!!!

Smarty, Recommending communism is against the rules. They have to be physical objects, not political/encomic systems.

Now a book by Marx would have been acceptable.

And support the archaic publishing systems, crawling like spiders on the works of genuine creatives, keeping them suppressed to subdue the people and lacking the distribution of wealth that is essential for institutional change? Like heck!

Actually, that caffeinated brownie mix is actually really really good, and when you have it alongside a red bull before a hockey game you're going to be zoomin' 'cuz your brain is trying to PUNCH ITSELF TO DEATHAAAAAAAAGH

My contribution?

It's actually really good. Probably the best nerf gun I've ever had the pleasure of shooting coworkers with.


Also: Duct tape. If you don't have any, get some. Rejoice.

Masterpiece Grimlock (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-generations-classics-30-35/hasbro-masterpiece-grimlock-image-gallery-169909/). Just starting to hit Toys-R-Us stores. Website (http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3870072) not currently taking orders.

Little bit of a sticker shock, as he costs $70, but as the Japanese Import goes for $144.95. Well..

Transforms from robot to dino, both modes have multiple joints. Right hand can light up sword/gun, but only has movable thumb. Left hand can open & close. Can change eye color of bot & dino modes. In dino mode, moving the tail moves the head. Dino jaw snaps shut w/ push of button.

Also has little chair in dino mode, which is a homage of the original toy.

- Of course, if he's still on the shelves by November, you might be able to get him a bit cheaper towards Black Friday.

Because it was nearly a year before there was a US release? Or maybe you just HAD to have the serving tray/brain drain accessories? (US release comes with the crown instead.)

Other that that, there only real changes are slightly less pointed teeth & claws. Plus a few negligible paint applications.

Of course, this might serve as something of a lesson. As Masterpiece (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/generation-1-1/clearer-pictures-of-masterpiece-rodimus-prime-170307/) Rodimus (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/generation-1-1/first-prototype-pictures-of-masterpiece-rodimus-170298/) is apparently next in line.

Well, in light of PSN, I'll make some recommendations:

FF7-9. If you don't already have them. Or in 9's case, even if you do, due to the printing error present on seemingly all sets on Disc 1 which the PS1's laser passes over, but nothing else's seems to.

Mega Man 9 and 10. MM9 I can personally vouch for, and it is amazing. I'd call it Nintendo Hard, but I can't really vouch for the era, since my first console was a PS1 when PS2 hit market. I hear good things about 10, too, so clearly they're doing something right.

And, not one PSN to my knowledge, but if you can find a copy of The Legend of Dragoon, go for it. If you don't like it, you can probably resell for a profit. The localization is pretty bland, but the gameplay is at the very least interesting and involving, rather than turning on the turbo feature and weighing down a button in battle (although having turbo helps with attack item use).

My point is Orwellian.

It is true, people starve and people profit from stupid things.

Though, would your point be to actually make us support our fellow man?

If so, why would you criticize already existing opinions and decisions rather than leading by example, Smarty?

Just as a late note to this, I dunno about you, but my boy bits do not, in fact, contain a skull, so I think you're thinking the wrong head in this case.
