All the clutter... how do you even make use of all the stuff piled up like that? And your mousepad is so filthy!

glad to know your feelings of my special corner of the earth images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Well 1 of those piles is my school stuff and others "are" related to it and to pc.
and that mousepad is only 15 years old images/smilies/tongue.gif

That is perfectly reasonable, and their criticism is unfounded. I support you fully. images/smilies/tongue.gif

If you put your hand hour after hour on a mouse mat like that, I don't want to see your microwave or worse, your toilet images/smilies/wink.gif

I see you have no experience with vintage grime like that. It's just a stain, it doesn't leave any marks. Furthermore, it's impossible to remove.

That's automotive boards for you, always with the negativism, commenting on things you haven't experienced. images/smilies/tongue.gif

^5 @ petarkb's comment (+ rep also)

and for CyberMonkey:

Microwave is cleaned like once a week, or when the food does like to burst images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Toilet is cleaned once a week to be sure of safety.
That mousepad has just coffee nothing else (maybe some bacteria i dunno i have cleaned most of the coffee away)

Well, it's not technological, but I got me one of these (not exact one, picture pulled off Google for lazyness):

It's a massage table, my man! Get educated!

Mind you, I do have some nice whips, cuffs, harnesses and other metal and leather bondage equipment in the closet, just in case.

Not really a "toy" per say but it is a must for Canada:

Light-wight, breathable, Goretex, three-pli shell and a windproof raincoat too.

Very cool, but itis to be used with a layer underneath.

Not really a new toy, but my Nokia N95 is back from the menders.

I walked into a table corner yesterday (yes, I'm stupid) and it hit my phone right in the screen, breaking it. This morning, off to the local evil mobile phone megacorporation, who have a fix-it-up department at my local branch. £44 later it's fixed again.

Not bad service, especially since you can buy a new screen by itself from shops online for £40.

Having said that, the guy who worked there admitted his screen broke too, really easily. Methinks a case of some kind is in order...

Crumpler muffin top half photo backpack, to carry my d40 around. It also fits my laptop and my school stuff. it is great, cost me 89 euros.

It is bigger then it looks on this photo though.

I've been in Montreal in December, it wasn't so bad. I guess Jan/Feb is the worst.

After going through 4 different wireless headphones, I finally bought a pair of Motorola S805s which I'll be keeping. Why? Because I bought it online and had it shipped to the US, so I can't return it.

It looks good though, and I got it for $41 off Amazon. If I were to pick it up here it would probably be quite close to $200. Just waiting for my cousin to bring them up.

Very nice, I've been looking at getting a very similar coat.

Very very nice. I ski in a similar Gore-Tex jacket with a couple of layers underneath, much better than wearing bulky stuff.

Assuming those are a better, over-the-head version of the HT820's, you will be pleased.
