Social Link checked the thread. Wow! This is a nice thread!

Why don't you all come to Norway where wii games are still $70. ( ;-; ) and our equivalent to cents or pence is Øre (which means ear).

I found out some time ago that some books are made in two versions. The North American version which is expensive and high quality for the North American market. Then there is an international version that is cheaply made and is supposed to be cheaper. However in Norway the cheap version costs more than the expensive version in North America. It's also not allowed to sell the international version in North America. An example of this is Introductory Circuit Analysis by Boylestad, it says on the back:

If you Purchased this book within the United States or Canada you should be aware that it has been wrongfully imported without the approval of the Publisher or Author.

Not for Sale in the U.S.A. or Canada.

 

[Rizen]

Damn, now my passion for analyzing circuits will never take off

 

[Elessar]

You gotta love a country that calls it's currency "ear". Specially considering that it is a Nordic country. It sparks the imagination about how the name came into being.

The day we get rid of the penny will be a grand day. Seriously, why haven't we yet?

 

[WolfieXVII ❂]

The day we get rid of the penny will be a grand day. Seriously, why haven't we yet?

99 cent stores would start WWIII

The day we get rid of the penny will be a grand day. Seriously, why haven't we yet?

We did here in Canada. Now the only way to pay the real price of an item is to pay by card.

Are those even a thing?

Yep, pretty prominent in the States

I live in the States, and I've never seen one.

Maybe it's an east coast thing
Places like Family Dollar, Dollar Tree are 99cent stores y'know
nah there's definitely 99cent stores all over the states

I suppose you could just move to a less financially secure area. They are pretty common though.

I've shopped at Dollar Tree's, but I've scoured shelves for items that cost exactly 99 cents. They're non existent when you add tax. I don't think I've ever paid for anything that totaled 99 cents exactly.

Well if we are talking about the name, then I don't think I've ever seen a store that holds true to that name.
It seems @ Jasudin gets a kick out of liking every post on the page ;3

I shan't complain.
We need to convert our currency to Turkish lira. We'd all feel rich.

But if we all felt rich, there would be no upper class.
Prices would inflate, and after our economy reboots everything will be back to normal, minus items being marked as higher to keep up with the enormous circulation of that currency.
I like the way you think, so when can I sign up for this madness?

Talk to Uncle Shin, he's the one with the documents.

I'd rather him come to me, that shed is... disconcerting

 

[link7]

I'd rather him come to me, that shed is... disconcerting

I walked in there once thinking it was an outhouse. It became an outhouse that day.

 

[Lozjam]

What are you talking about! Uncle Shins Shed is a great place to be, especially for children. Ah... All of the muffled screams and dripping blood reminds me of home.

You win post of the day lol

So I was reading Sakurai's comments about clones in sm4sh and I don't think he knows anything about his own game.
"Lucina was the first [character] to be split off; this is because we made Marth's moves more standard so he could be easy to handle by novice players"

Seems like he just doesn't understand spacing.

 

[PKBeam]

what he said is true. casuals hate spacing.
sakurai understands it... probably, but he just doesn't think it's useful.
it's such a shame, really.

 

[Zelkam]

So I broke down and ordered the smash bros poster set from club nintendo...

And don't forget the airborne rabies! everything is better with rabies!

Guys, I'll be headed to the hospital soon. I'm in serious pain, and I'm afraid it might have something to do with my appendix. Wish me luck.

Eeesh, I hope it IS your appendix. That's an easy fix. Hope everything turns out okay dude.

Feel better man. Hope you'll be alright.

Damn man, keep us updated. I'll get that triforce ready for ya.

 

[DarkDeity15]

Yeah. My uncle actually had to get his removed because it bursted, so history might repeat itself. I have no experience when it comes to surgery so I'm really nervous.

On the other hand, the pain subsided for the most part. I'm still on my way to go have it checked because anything that causes that kind of pain shouldn't be taken lightly. I've never felt anything like it. Here's to hoping it isn't something too serious, like a severe case of gas, lol. If that's the case, I apologize for worrying you guys.

 

[Jasudin]

May the Triforce be with you.
[Insert meme picture]

Instantly Infracted and Shot at from Bad Joke and Picture

Anyways, fortuity and serendipity be in your presence.

Hope ya' feel better. <----Panaceas of all maladies and calamities

 

[Fox Is Openly Deceptive]

Surgery is a piece of cake. Nothing to worry about dude. Just lay back and let the cool liquid seep into your veins and then next thing you know you're awake somewhere else.

 

[Bomber7]

Best wishes.

 

[Breadloaf]

Speaking of surgery im getting my wisdoom teeth removed tommorow.

 

[Fox Is Openly Deceptive]

I had 5 wisdom teeth removed.

 

[Breadloaf]

Jesus thats alot im only gettting three removed myself. Gonna be high on painkillers for the next four days

 

[Fox Is Openly Deceptive]

Gonna be high on painkillers for the next four days

You've got the right idea.

 

[Elessar]

@ DarkDeity15 Hope it's just an indigestion.

@ Fox Is Openly Deceptive and @ Breadloaf LOL at your first world wisdom teeth removal. When I got mine removed it was just local anesthesia (as in only that part of my mouth was numb) and a guy with pliers who via brute force dislodged my tooth then stitched the whole shut. I was sent home and old to not eat anything solid for 3 days and that was it. No painkillers, nothing.

 

[Vonzar the Soulrender]

I still have all my wisdom teeth. Feels good man

 

[Zelkam]

My wisdom teeth have recently started an attempt to escape from within my skull. I fear that I may have to get them removed one day. I really don't want that to happen, though, because I've heard too many horror stories of people starting to get migraines after getting their wisdom teeth pulled.

I also had local anaesthesia. I have no idea how they were removed, though the fifth one was below the bottom left one, so I'd imagine there was much digging to be done. Not having painkillers afterwards would have sucked though. You missed out on the best part.
