I've got all kinds of junk, I found Blu-tac in there a while ago. Who still uses blu-tac? Cards that were never actually sent, fuses that are most likely burnt out and lots of tape measures. I will never need all these tape measures, ever.
Incredible. I just have one pair of shoes that goes with anything I'm going to be doing, except exercising, for that I have running shoes. Other than that I have some old shoes I keep as backup for when my fits-every-occasion-shoes are worn out, or temporarily unwearable.Spore said:yes, you mayxmetatr0nx said:Wow, may i ask why you have so many shoes?

Shoes. The worst part is, I don't wear any but a few pair. They're just more expensive than the average thing, and its always nice to have a walking sandal, a dressy sandal, small heels, higher heels, clogs, slippers, sneakers, art shoes, dressier walking shoes...
I mean, I guess I do have occasions for 'em, but still.
I have way too many shoes.
I think having the right shoes for any occasion is actually very important. for instance I've got a couple of suits, under wich I would not wear sneakers I've got about 6 pairs of shoes for my suits, then for under my tuxedo I have another pair of (I'd have to say) exquisite laquer shoes as anyone wearing a tux should have, because it just looks better
then down to sneakers etc. I have these for day-to-day wear, these account for 10 pairs, not including the 2 limited edition sneakers I have wich I almost never wear, just for special occasions (i.e. when I feel like it)
then I've got some utility shoes: pair for sailing, rugby, hockey, climbing and 3 pairs for heavy work.
and then a few pairs of flipflops, but I'm not counting those, that would just make me look gay [/irony]
yeah i was joking. also i live near massachusetts, so a lot of people pronounce that way.Nuke_em_05 said:Mookie_Magnus said:I believe the word is 'DRAWER' as in a chest of drawers...I think "drawer" is what he's going for. I haven't seen it spelled that way before, and it kinda makes me think less of their intelligence. Actually, if I hear someone say it that way, I kinda think less of their intelligence. If they're quoting someone, it makes this worse as they are ripping it off, keeping the bad pronounciation, and then spelling it like it sounds.cobra_ky said:i had a roommate who used to pronounce it "draw". i had no idea people spelled it that way, too.
Honestly, it was painful to read the original post and I couldn't even tell what he was on about until "instruction manuals", then it was painful to read because he kept using it that way.
OT: The reason I caught on at instruction manuals is because that is what is in mine. I also have a box full of coax cables/splitters/rf converters, laptop RAM sticks, monitor-powered speakers sans monitors, and various computer cables for peripherals that I don't have any more.
