[quote name='strummerbs']Actually, yeah, she is, but that doesn't make parting with the money any easier.

That's a hell of a lot of CDs and games. Damn, I just realized that's TEN PS3s, and I can't convince myself to buy ONE of those things.

And no, Hex, porn is in no way involved.[/quote]That's also a decent used car's price, as well. :shock:
 
[quote name='munch']Can we talk abotu Oink? And if so, does anyone have an invite?[/QUOTE]
Not sure if anyone gave you one yet, but I have an invite.

I also have 3 invites to Blackcat Games, if anyone is in to that sort of thing.

Wait, so what are you buying for six grand?
 
[quote name='Eviltude']Is Oink busted for anyone else?[/quote]

Nosir.

And according to Shrike we're not allowed to talk about OiNK here.

The Thought Police are watching. :eek:

Zew - Whats blackcat games?[/QUOTE]
No.

And Blackcats is just like OiNK, but instead of music, it's video games.

Engagement ring.

Maybe she'd take the $6,000 in CDs in lieu of the ring? :lol:

Holy shit. :shock: That almost makes me glad that I'm not allowed to marry.

Almost.



Why must something so magnificent be so costly and rare? :cry: Now THAT is worth six grand, rather than some ring.

Freaking mail man is still hoarding my DS games!

Damn thing got to a city within 5 miles of me yesterday AM and still didn't make it to me today. :bomb:

Ah I see this as the status now:

"Status: Missent

Your item was misrouted. The error has been corrected and every effort is being made to deliver it as soon as possible. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later."

Just peachy.

fuck yes I was right. Couldn't think of many more reasons why I'd be reading about someone on here dropping 6 large.

You could try to convince her 6K in CDs = lots and lots of rings, but that might not fly.

$6K isn't that much for an engagement ring, all told, depending on what's in it.

QFT, sadly. That tradition needs to die.
 
My boss is freaking out over the fact that she's going to miss this weeks target goal.

Supposed to have $2.5 million in bills paid and we only have $200K.

She said she didn't sleep at all last night, and was throwing up this morning.
Glad I don't have to explain this to the higher ups.

Dallow what in the fuck is it your company does?

The same thing happened to a tech support firm I worked at a few years ago. Didn't get enough contracts, killed the entire branch.
 
I work at one of Citi's (formerly Citigroup) corporate offices.
A giant bank.

Specifically in the new Tax Department. More specifically in Personal Property Tax Department. Even more specifically in the Renditon (tax return) side.

The bills in question are tax bills owed to local and state governments around the US.

Dealing in big $$$.

That sucks.


My boss was whining about how he owed $50k in back taxes. Then he went on to say 'You don't know it feels, it's so terrible!'- but since I had to pay about $1700 extra in taxes this year I do fucking kno whow it feels: $50K is two months and a half of his salary, while $1700 is about the same for me. :roll:
 
[quote name='Hex']That sucks.

Yeah.

If I worked in a place that sounded that boring and was a young woman and was being dallow'd, I wouldn't be horny either and succumb to his nerd-in-public-instead-of-his-basement charms either.
 
[quote name='wubb']QFT, sadly. That tradition needs to die.[/quote]My wife was estatic with what I picked out for her, all on my own, in about 45 minutes from beginning to end. Wasn't completely overboard on the cost, bought it with 12 months no-interest financing, paid it off in a year.

Anyone buying an engagement ring over the Internet is a much more trusting soul than I am.

[quote name='dallow']And yes, it is as boring as you can imagine.

Hence, the stalking.[/quote]
You could make the stalking a really interesting ordeal for the rest of us. You know, fuck with the girl a little and get her good and freaked out.. then make sure to stick it in her pooper and publish the pics.

Preferrably around the office.

Yeah. Paid $1700 to the Feds and $72 to the State. =/

What this taught me: Trust not in your employer; when being hired ask if you're being contracted or employed by the company.

If you're being contracted, kill yourself. Contracting is the worst.

Oh, and to get back at the person you contracted, use their high quality printer to print posters of nekkied anthropomorphic kangroo guys. :D

I wasn't planning on getting it on-line, but it makes sense. I get the certification and a 30-day no cost return period, and I get a better ring for a better value. If anything, I worry I may be paying too little. I know it doesn't really represent my love and commitment, but the sales pitch is really effective in making you feel kind of like it is.

make sure you have it appraised by a reputable, independant jeweler just to make sure you don't get pooched

Never said I didn't have posters of him. ;)

Most recent thing I bought that was more than a few bucks was my LCD TV, for $699 + shipping.

When it's a diamond ring, there's no way in heck that I'm buying it without seeing it up-close and personal. No way in heck, no matter how much I'm saving.
