I took some of the cash I got for Christmas and bought myself some new records. I have weird tastes.[/QUOTE]
Mega jealous of those Com Truise records.

$30 for both. I got a really good deal on them, for being new records.
Granddad just gave me 1,000 bucks holy shit.

Advice: Take $300-400 out for yourself right now for spending money, and stick the rest into your bank account to use for the rest of the year. It'd be a shame to blow the whole thing right now if you don't need to.

ignore this advice and put it all in the stock market instead, and keep putting more in
assuming a 1.2% monthly gain (a very low figure, 1.2% just makes the math easy. expect 2.5-3%) and that you put in an additional $83 per month (again, more easy math) you'll have around $220 profit at the end of the year.
Keep taking out that $220 at the end of the year if you like, or leave it in and make even more profit on it

Or this. Do this. But maybe try a money market account or something, since "the stock market" is a vague place to put money. Also, with normal brokers you've got to worry about management fees, assorted costs, and all the slimy little things they put in those contracts to make a bit more money for themselves.
Investing is not something someone should do lightly, or without proper research.

that looks like something a guy with super long hair, a sparse neckbeard, tripp pants, and a black shirt with the name of a power metal band on it would own

We saw it in a gas station like 2 years ago and were both confused as hell as to what it was.
We asked one of the employees and even she had no idea.
My sister saw this in a shop out where she's living now and thought it would be a good chance to get me a gag gift.
It's tacky as all hell and it's great.
I guess if you want to use it, you'd just sort of flail madly at the person you wanted to hit, and both of you would end up in need of a hospital.

That, or let them pick it up and watch as they hurt themselves with it as you run the fuck away.
Stuff for moving ouT. Y'know. Pots and pans. Cutlery.
That'd be nice and useful if Stockholm didn't have waiting queues for up to 4-5 years to get a fucking apartment.
SteelSeries Rival, Tri-pod, Soldering station, Zomboy's "The Outbreak" on vinyl, and Toblerone :D

I also ruined a secret Santa gift exchange by gifting in "Hatoful Boyfriend". Now everyone in the group is giving eachother pranks and prank gifts.

You live in one of the only countries where you can get away with scarves... Here you're almost instantly branded a metrosexual for wearing one.
