Submit, or Forget?
This is a game. A materialistic game. Link us to things here that you're itchin' to buy but probably don't really need, and we the people will vote on whether you should submit to your desires or forget the item in question.
I really hope I'm not the only one who thinks this sounds fun.

Ever since reading this following description, I've been wanting to buy BPAL's Samhain perfume ( http://blackphoenixalchemylab.com/limited.html ). 'Tis the season!
"SAMHAIN 2008
Truly the scent of autumn itself -- damp woods, fir needle, and black patchouli with the gentlest touches of warm pumpkin, clove, nutmeg, allspice, sweet red apple and mullein."

forget. just make your own. i just bought one too, blue heather with a black strap. it's literally a jersey tube with a casing at one end.

TRUE. But I can't sew. But I'm sure I have friends who can sew. So maybe I can call it a draw by getting some funky-colored straps and making my own dresses.

Ooh, I love this idea. I get stuck in this situation all the time. 9 times out of 10 I don't have the balls to submit. Good thing too or I'd be eating ramen for the next year.

OH, I forgot to mention that my mom texted me from Germany to ask my opinion on DIRNDLS.

The new macbooks won't be announced until Tuesday, and I already want one, but I sure as hell don't need another laptop.

@Centro: Sounds like you've already answered your own question. What do you think of Machined's object of lust? (Which I tried to type as "objust," by the way.)

I want an i-pod, but as my mac is now 5 years old it's getting toward being defunct and would need upgrading/replacing before I bought the i-pod. I am therefore conflicted as to whether to by a new computer and an i-pod, or upgrade my OS, fuck about installing a USB2 or save my money for moving out of my shithole town and back into London.

Sorry that doesn't really qualify for inclusion here. It's more of an irritated rant.

@Machined: I have a similarly specced TV, and I love it. I also paid $999 for it. I say go for it, if you can afford it.

I want my boss to buy me two of these:

The problem is, he'll probably just buy me one, and then I'll end up using one big monitor and one small monitor, which is a pain in the ass and generally not worth it.

I want this:

The one on the left. I already have the one on the right. It will almost be like a matching set. And it's for sale! See:

@val - my current television is a regular 27 inch tv, kinda on the fritz and is probably gonna die at some point anyways. I lost the remote for it a couple weeks ago and almost just bought a new tv instead of getting a new remote
I just bought this dress ( http://store.americanapparel.net/rsa0300.html ) in white, and now I'm dying to buy it in at least two other colors. And a coupla other strap colors, too.
