Try shouting HOLD IT! and TAKE THAT! a lot. Pointing fingers while yelling OBJECTION! also works.


Why exactly is the evidence inadmissible?

There might be more but this is all I can think of off the top of my head. I'd like to also recognize the community at large. We might have some rough spots, and not all of us agree with eachother. But the long and short of it is, I haven't found another place like this I'd be willing to call my home on the internet. And that says a hell of a lot.

HEAR HEAR!

I'd like to thank Flying Dice and Jacob/Lee for being such frequent faces in the Other Games section. I can almost always count on one or the other showing up to join the discussion.

Stay low to the ground as much as possible while making circuit. Also keep communicator ready in case of emergencies.

Paperbacks can be anything from $5 to $20. It seems a very imprecise system of measure :|

I go by the price of my favorite meal from McDonald's, which is just under $5. Since the items are value meal, it's roughly the same just about everywhere I go.

Where I live and in most places I've spent time in, pretty much every book store I've ever been in, from indie stores, to good chains, to bad chains, to absolute shit chains, charge $7.99 for SF and Fantasy paperbacks. 

Of course, hardback and stuff from other genres is a different matter, but SF/Fantasy paperback prices are about as stable as manga prices (too damn high; used to be $7.99 per volume, which was reasonable, but are now apparently 15.99 per volume-scanlations it is, then).

Also, still got a stack of cash from reselling my texts from last semester, so I'm going to wait and jump on special sales for stuff I wouldn't normally buy (and to see if I can actually run the stuff I bought, in which case a bunch of new avenues are open).

Depends (mostly) on the size and age of the book in question.

I have in front of me three different sci-fi paperbacks: The Founding (Gaunt's Ghosts omnibus), A Mighty Fortress (by David Weber) and A King of Infinite Space (hardcore sci-fi that no-one, not even TV-Tropes, seems to know about).

The Founding: 767 pages, $15
A Mighty Fortress: 1130 pages, $8.99
A King of Infinite Space: 424 pages, $5.99 when new (got it for $1 at a used book sale)

You can kinda see why I wouldn't use that measuring system

I'm a couple minutes away from breaking down and buying a game on Steam or summat.

*sigh*

Grim stuff.

Think of it as rewarding yourself for making it through a challenging semester

You're doing it wrong.

Spoiler: This is how you do it. Straight from the man himself. (click to show/hide)

MAGMAAAAAAAAAAAAA

EDIT: Somehow the code is broken. What is this.

FTFY.

You forgot the pt after the number in "size".

No problem
