there's good arguments (well to certain people) why they AREN'T a waste of money. my housemate in college was an english major who bought CDs for the booklet art/booklets. I still don't see how it's justified though.

To show I'm hypocritical, the only CDs i buy anymore is KMFDM, but i think they're starting to suck now, so i may stop.

I don't feel like I ever wasted money other than losing at poker when internet poker first hit.

what i view as well spent money went towards

muscle men

and later, to creepy crawlers which actually ended up making money because I parlayed it into a profitable playground business. my friend and i were local legends when it came to creepy crawlers, artists in a league of our own. People would pay upwards of $3 for a custom-colored scorpion.





edit to add that the [censored] oven burnt the [censored] out of me on several occasions.

I can't call that a waste, since I now know a hell of a lot more about electronics because of it. Then again, I only had 2 of them. A Kyosho Raider and then an Associated RC/10 graphite.

Apparently neither one of these cars exist anymore.
