You're starting off on the right foot Jr.
This reminds me, I need to post my PS3 slim and UC2 purchases.
Hey guys, this is my favorite thread on GAF, and I've never posted, but it's been a big month, so I thought I'd contribute.
Finally picked up a PS3. Got the 80gb phat with extra controller from Sony Style for $250.
Got me some Little Big Planet: GOTY. Played through the Story mode with the girlfriend and had a blast. The game gets HARD, but remains awesome. The co-op has me excited for some New Super Mario Bros Wii next month.
Picked up the LBP dynamic theme, because with that blue wave stuff happening, it looked like my dad's PS3, son.
PixelJunk Eden. I heart everything about this game. I wanted it around to play for ten minutes here and there when I don't have time for something bigger.
I never had an original Playstation, so in 1998, I was an excited high schooler who had his dad drive him to the closest Software Etc to pick up Final Fantasy 7 for PC on day one. My computer at the time barely met the minimum requirements, so I was a pretty disappointed kid. I've gone back to it before, but never made it past that circus/fair with the chocobo racing. Excited to maybe finish it this time.
My girlfriend got the Fire Mario candy dispenser from a Korean grocery near are last apartment, and Fire Mario is totally the best kind of Mario. I got the Toadette figure shipped from Hong Kong for her b-day last week. We got the awesome Mexican-hat-bowl from Goodwill, originally from some sort of Mexican restaurant it would seem, but now we keep our laundry change in there.
We moved into a new apartment this month (Koreatown to West Hollywood), and made an expensive trip to IKEA, so all the furniture you see in this pic is new.
And this bed. Been sleeping on a fold out futon for the past 3 months, so it's nice to be in a real bed again.
New desk and chair for my very lame home office. This is actually the second time I've bought an IKEA "Moses" chair. If you only have $39.99 to spend, I recommend it. NOTE: I did not get the 2009 30 Rock calendar this month, because it'd be stupid to buy a calendar in October for the current year, and I'm not that stupid.
This is a bathroom. It's mine now. Well, for the next year of this lease. IN YOUR FACE, HOMELESS GAF'ERS!
I moved to LA from Seattle 4 months ago, and I miss it dearly. Bought a coffee maker, grinder, and had a buddy of mine send me some beans from my favorite shop.
Things, for the iPhone. It's a fancy to-do list, it's $9.99, it syncs with the desktop version over wifi, and it's supposed to make it so I get more stuff done. But, well, right now, I should be working, but I'm posting on GAF, so yeah.
See you next month. And thanks for the help to get my images right, Yes Boss!

I would suggest that you move your PS3 from that shelf and give it some air to vent.AdamMPSP said:Hey guys, this is my favorite thread on GAF, and I've never posted, but it's been a big month, so I thought I'd contribute.

It's an 80gb with 65nm chips. Those things run very cool and will not overheat.

Today's pickup is a couple of small inexpensive kadhai pans for my kitchen:
Nice shade of green on the Le Creuset you got hiding there!
we have the white collection Le Creuset and love using it for bake ziti (Cheese loves being cooked in the finest french cookware! LOL j/k)
But really nice cooking setup you have there...

I was thinking the same thing. I always liked the blue color, but its well beyond our means.
Litflynt912 said:
Yeah, it is called Kiwi. It is a nice throwback color and I think they still produce it. Very pretty and its color has evolved and deepened over the last few years as it has seen heat. Recently I've just been using it as my stock pot for blanching vegetables so it lives on my range.
My other Le Creuset stuff is classic Flame colored. My favorite piece is the mini lasagna pan...perfect for small roasting.

yes we were going to get the spice but our color scheme in the kitchen called for white instead!

Nice! How'd you get it?
Did you win one for registering your WSR on Club Nintendo or did you buy it used somewhere??

Got some new digs. Rebel 8 is by far the best joint ever. Lifer represent!
Too lazy to take pics of Uncharted 2, Brutal Legend, and my new CDs though.

I'm sitting here at work with my coffee reading this thread thinking: "I bet his coffee tastes a hell of a lot better than this machine oil I'm drinking" :lolAdamMPSP said:

Don't have a picture, but I'm running Windows 7 which I got for $30 . Sometimes it helps to be a student.
Turns out this old laptop GPU ain't equipped to handle Windows Aero so thats a huge bummer. I'm looking to get a new laptop soon anyway, but in the mean time what exactly am I missing??

I'm really gunshy about using my student discount to buy Windows 7 online. I did that for Office, and since I had to reinstall a bunch of times now it won't let me install since I have "already used my allotment" of installs... $60 down the fucking drain... *hugs openoffice*

Microsoft is generally pretty good about issues like that if you can manage to contact them. As long as it's a "Genuine Microsoft Product" they'll give you a new key usually with no problem.
And Windows 7 decided to let me access some of Aero's features after I did a System Performance test in Windows 7 itself
. Adds tab "previews" and transparencies and stuff which is pretty cool. No significant performance hit but I'm sure I can adjust if it's a problem.AdamMPSP said:

Where did you buy the Toadette figure?

Was £5.93, is now mine.
2-for-1 trade-in deals. Paying £12 for a new game seemed like a good idea. Got another AitD incoming.
Got lucky, got it before the weekend and before the Royal Mail could start doing nothing.
Borderlands is still MIA though. :\

Just how big is that? Can you put it next to like a can of coke or some everyday thing?

It is the biggest set ever released by Lego, piece-wise. But there are a few sets that are bigger in size and weight (and cost). The Taj is comprised of tons and tons of small pieces (the glass windows alone are about 450 pieces, for example). Here it is with a dual-shock:
