Title: What is your favourite possession?
Post by: Newts on March 04, 2005, 09:26:13 pm
Let's face it - we live in a commodity-driven society. Everyone wants things. Personally, I don't see this as any bad thing - I love collecting things, be they games, CDs or even little figurine things. So, the question is - what thing do you love the most?

Personally, my favourite thing changes every once in a while. Well, it doesn't actually change shape, although that would definitely make it my favourite thing. I have many favourites which rotate. These include:

My signed SFIII card. No surprises there.
My signed Sonic R artwork. Again, no surprises.
My Saturn. Or my DS. I love them both.
Any of my beautiful game-related toys - Animal Crossing, Sonic, Pok?mon, King of Fighters and more. I love them all.
My pens. I love pens.

That's about it. I'll think of more and post them up whenever I can be bothered. So here the question becomes...

What's YOUR favourite possession?

My computer for one (I built it meself).
I love my n64.  I'll never make the mistake of selling one again (this is my second n64).
My drumset and guitar are way up there.
Also, my magic cards, and my books.
I could go on, but suffice to say that I love all of my stuff equally well (otherwise, why have it?).

The next time you complain that a girl won't go out with you, I'm going to quote you that post.

I forgot my NeoGeo Pocket Colour - best handheld ever.

So I'm a packrat geek.
That just means I have to find a geeky girl.
And, dude, ya need to take a chill suppository with all the cynical meanness of late.

I got mine on import years ago. They were re-released over here in about 2003, they're not really that expensive any more, although the games do fetch quite a high price.

MOBN - come on, it was crying out for it. Sorry if I offended you, it was meant in a light-hearted way. I know for a fact that there are geeky girls, they just take a lot more finding than guys.

I also forgot to mention:

My keyboard. All I need to create mindblowingly beautiful music. Apart from talent and arms, obviously.

Not offended at all mate.  I just think that you need to give the sarcastic side of you a rest for a while, as it's tending to drown out the more intellectual side we all know exists.
I also neglected to mention my new $100 ddr pad.
It' an illness...

Newts is sarcastic. If he stopped he wouldn't be newts anymore...

$100 ddr pad? I paid 60 for mine.... I'd say 100 was crazy but my friend just bought a like 300 one. Don't get me wrong its even better then the arcade pads but jesus christ......

yup.  I got one with a hard foam insert inside.  Nice and cushy on my feet, and very sensitive.  I make a video sometime (have to obtain a camera first).

My favorite possession is my wonderful Aldi PC. Without it I'd suffocate :P.

I think you got the older model of the one I have.  Mine has six pieces of the foam.  It also has much more sensitivity than anything I've used before (even at the arcade), and can plug into both xbox and ps2.
I'd wager you have the Redoctane ignition?  I've got the 2.0 dual edition.

My sarcasm is now laid to rest - I only brought it back because someone said I hadn't been that sarcastic of late, so I wanted to prove them wrong. Now my point is proven, I can move on.

Does electricity count? We've had two (albeit brief) powercuts in two days, and in that time it's like time stops moving. Maybe times is electrically-powered too. I had to hold a torch in my mouth so I could read a book, and put some batteries in these tiny, tinny speakers so I could listen to music. I know I don't strictly own electricity, but let's not split hairs, okay?

Or I could just say my favourite possessions are all electrical. That might work.
