    Probably not someone you'd want to fuck with.

    However, some work just as you describe yours to work.
    True, 5K is probably only a very small number. Compared to how many rounds are needed to be fired through it to cause complete failure or catastrophic malfunction.

    Is there a monument in Canada dedicated to him?

    It's sizeable, for just a partaker, not a gun nut, or you know, like me
    Now to say goodbye, I would like some sleep.

    They do, sadly it's not quite that impressive for a guy so badass that the british were all "you know what, you're doing fine on your own. We'll be over here in europe fighting germans, you can fucking have north africa".

    Still, I like to think someone built a monument to that goddamn mustache.

    Just look at that thing. SO MANLY.

    I've never spent that much on a games at one time.

    I have spent thousands on games in the last year, though, and should probably seek professional help.

    Yeah, I looked up some pics of the memorial online. I was disappointed when I didn't find a giant bronze statue of that 'stache.

    It's been a sad couple of months for me. No packages with which to make me happy.

    Seeing Dr. Mario does not count.

    We can petition for them to put a giant bronze 'stache on that mountain they named after him.

    It doubles as a ramp for all those snowboarders.

    I have one gaming coming in right now (Shingen the Ruler CIB), but otherwise I haven't been seeing anything worthwhile. I haven't been on eBay as much -- seeing all those shipping fees and import duties cropping up on more and more listings is making me nauseous. Every time I see a listing I want, the price almost doubles because of those fucking fees.

    Yeah, other than the last few pre-orders I have yet to pick up(New Adventure Time(3DS), Ys(Vita), and Link Between Worlds). I haven't bought anything as of late or even been on eBay really. Though I did have some kinda fiasco with eBay several weeks ago. They locked my account because unauthorized access had been detected. I got that cleared up pretty easily, but haven't done anything on there since. Although having to make payments on this bill out of every paycheck definitely puts a damper on frivolous spending. Definitely sucks about those fees though.

    I did finally receive my physical copy of Class of Heroes II for PSP from Gaijin Works though. Had been waiting on that one for a while now.

    BTW, how many NES games are you up to now?
