I really wanted to make a fierce deity link halloween costume but then I got the flu. I have all the stuff to make it I just won’t be able to finish it in time.

Crap, I just cracked my iPads screen pretty bad. It still works, but I probably just lost a couple hundred dollars.

@blindsquarel Oh dear! Do you still have warranty or is it far gone by now?

@Kermit1
We got it pre owned, so there is no warranty. I’m just hoping the repair doesn’t cost as much as I think it will. My current plan is to tell my mom right before I go out to practice so she has some time to cool off.

@blindsquarel My Dad dropped his phone last week and had to replace the screen he could have bought a new phone for the price he paid.

@Kermit1
Darn, was it a newer model? If it’s that expensive I may just buy a tablet at Best Buy that costs around the same amount of money.

@blindsquarel Yea, it's pretty new (Not this year new, but pretty new).

Word of advise: Black Friday

@Kermit1
Yeah Black Friday is probably the way to go. Luckily I am the only person in my family that really uses it ( it is just for anyone to use) so my parents won’t be to anxious to get a replacement.

@blindsquarel How old is it? Depending on how old it is it could make the repair cheaper.

Jerry Lee Lewis passed away. A true rock legend and pioneer.

@Kermit1
It is an iPad Air 3rd gen. Seems to be around $300 at the high end. Luckily I have some money saved up from doing some Jos for my dad.

But my mom handled it a lot better than I expected, so that is a plus.

On a better note, I think I am going to try hacking my 3ds this weekend, so that will give me something to do.

@blindsquarel hacking a 3DS doesn't take long if you follow the guide.

An iPad Air 3rd gen screen replacement costs around $380 from what I've seen. Without adding labour.

At least your Mom took the news good!

@Kermit1
Ah crap, well at least tears of the kingdom doesn’t come out until may.
Did you use the 3ds hacks guide?

@blindsquarel Yep... also 3hs...

Good day today. Went over to my friend's house to watch some shows and have lunch, but we did a surprise trip to Target because he needed to get something for his dog. Awesomely, treated myself to another Trolls tin, this time with Barb. I got the Poppy one awhile back.

Awesome, I'm glad to hear you liked the movie. It's been awhile since I've watched that movie. Maybe mom and I could watch it after Halloween. We've been enjoying Halloween specials lately.

Cool finds, IIRC, I got lucky with a Splatoon one in GameStop. I got the Inkling boy when I picked up Splatoon, and the store had it first come first serve with Splatoon amiibo. Yeah, I have two Rosalinas. One being the Super Mario line with the red base, and lucked out on the elusive Smash Bros one.

Yeah, Toys R Us did go out of business. Actually my local one was a "redesigned" store with interactive character displays, when they were closing, they took down the display, surprisingly, they used Xbox Kinects to do the interactions with the characters. They were making a comeback, but it's mainly one store AFAIK, and pop ups in Macy's (I follow them on social media, so I've been seeing what they've tried).

Understandable, this is coming from someone who may use a guide from time to time. Sometimes, guides are fun to look in. Some of the GOG games I've gotten include strategy guides, and one recent one even included an official hint sheet with cheat code. Ah, good old Apogee, actually including a code with their game that works in the registered release, but not the shareware release.

It's ok, I didn't realize the mistake in the post until I checked the forum on my phone. Just wanted to clarify that.

@Sunsy Next time I go to Toys R Us you can make me a list of stuff to find. lol.

@Kermit1 At least in Canada, you still have the stores AFAIK. I miss it because I love cartoon stuff. The final years of Toys R Us, always loved how two of my favorite things, Trolls and My Little Pony, were together in the same aisle.

Also, I loved their video game section. They always had games other places didn't really sell much of. Found a copy of Shantae Half-Genie Hero and Rodea on Wii U there. Also, the HUGE amiibo selection. I see an occasional amiibo in Target, but it's one or two, or amiibo cards. Toys R Us, it was wall to wall amiibo from what I remember.

I just looked in the mirror and I've lost a decent bit of weight. I'm gonna be skinny in a week and have a beard.

My special drawings are done.
Tomorrow I will change my avatar.

@Anti-Matter I can't wait to see them!
