I AM NOT UGLY.

I've had lazer surgery for the disfiguring facial growth now. It won't be long before they let me walk amongst humans again.

I don't have a missus.

I have a small band of slave-elves who do my bidding... "FETCH ME SOME WINE SLAVE ELVES!"
"ooeeeeoooeeeooee!" (I ripped out their little tongues so they couldn't answer me back)

Or else I do it myself and get it done very quickly on my own. I know what I want, and what I like, so it isn't rocket science to find something that fits and looks good. It certainly doesn't require me to take three friends along for validation and moral support. Yuck.

Yes bargains are great, but not Mass Bargain Hunting like in the sales because you inevitably come back with far more than you expected to buy and HENCE not saving any money, DESPITE the fact that your goods cost you less than they used to, BECAUSE YOU WOULDNT HAVE BOUGHT THEM AT ALL AT FULL PRICE!

I really hate shopping btw.

Me too, btw.

Yeah people who buy stuff they don't need or wouldn't have bought anyway are wasting their fucking money.

Me. I always need blank CD-Rs, DVD+Rs, SD cards (my digital camera and Palm Treo), and Mini-DV tapes (video camera).

I'll probably pay a net cost of $80 after rebates. I want 2 of those 1 gb SD cards and they normally run about $80 apiece.

All that other stuff will be free (besides tax).

There was something on TV about how people pay more going to warehouse stores like Sam's, Costco, and BJ's.

I hate shopping and wish they'd put all this shit online.

I'd gladly pay the shipping costs.

Says he who clatters around his house in leopard-print stilletos, singing "Its got to be perfect" into his hairbrush.

I do not own said dungarees or sensible shoes.
