2015 Nissan Versa to replace my 2001 GMC Jimmy. The Versa has a surprising amount of storage capacity once you push down the back seats.

Well look who's here. That's the guy who sidelined Jimmy. That's the guy who took the bread out of Jimmy's mouth. Jimmy's out of work because of you!

I too want to buy a mace.

However those are expensive as hell and I can make one myself out of plumbing pipe and weight plates. Swinging it around is a hell of a good workout.

It's hand sculpted, developed for real world combat and wrestling. Your great-grandchildren will be thankful that you didn't settle for a fragile bamboo and stone model when they are waylaying some unsuspecting wasteland traveler.

The one I got is from the Hobbit movies, that big albino orc dude carries it around. Can't recall his name but the mace looked cool, and was on sale cheaper than I could make it.

However The Great Gama was very much a real person who, it seems, popularized training with maces among wrestlers in India.



This (not me) is what training with a homemade mace looks like. Get swole etc.

I'm actually saving at this point because my Ninja has lasted me two years where the cheaper blenders would cost me around 40 bucks every six or so months when they break.

You don't need to shell out for a Vita-mix to get a seriously rad blender.

I just read that as you got gifted an actual Japanese Ninja, and not as a brand name for a blender.

I, uh, went kinda crazy on amazon. I'm reorganization my poo poo so that's how I rationalize it....




Storm MP3 shower speaker. I think bluetooth ones are a bit silly because you have to fuss with the connection and all that. I mean, I never use bluetooth so it's always off on my phone. Anyways I was hoping something like this existed and it does. Has 2gb internal storage. Hop in shower, hit play, shuffle some random tunes.



Black & Decker Matrix drill. Yeah it's nothing fancy, I won't be doing anything crazy. Allows for a tom of attachments that all seemingly have good reviews. Sander, impact gun, jig saw, saw, hedge trimmer lol



Gotta get some accessories



Already have one but can't find it. Magnetic stud finder. Thing works great!



Mounting Dream wall mount.



Floating shelves



Pillow chat: Snuggle pedic shredded memory foam, $60. Ended up getting this one after poking around a bit. Still trying it out.



SIlk pillowcase. Figured why not, spoil myself. $30 a pop though. I've never used one before though.



Shower clock



Motion sensor porch light. Too spooky around here.



These things are dope if you live in an old rear end place with the old style sinks from 1940 lol. Swivel all around and you can pull the white piece up to spray.



Beckham Hotel Collection Hypoallergenic Reversible Goose Down Alternative



:getin:



8" :quagmire:



Waterproof phone case, apparently completely waterproof. I'm not going to go swimming with it but it's one of those things you always need but never have when you go to the beach and sand gets all over



Got a ton of variations of these magnetic hooks with different pound ratings. They're nifty.



Cable management sleeve. Really innovative thing I've surprisingly never seen. Great alternative to wall mounting.



New kitchen timer :catdrugs:



These little things are cool as poo poo



For the kitchen. Not actual wood, tho.

I got my Nest Bedding pillow the other day and so far really like it. Queen size shredded memory foam Easy Breather. It's a big upgrade over the sculpted block of memory foam pillow I had before. Out of the box it felt about right for back/side sleeping, since I'm a side/stomach sleeper I took about 15-20% of the memory foam out and that seems about perfect for me.

Not sure that'd I'd recommend it unreservedly since the price point's a bit high compared to other shredded memory foam pillows on the market but I'm happy with my purchase.

This is 100% the right answer. The best thing about Thanksgiving/Christmas turkey dinner is throwing everything in a pie shell the next day. The best thing about being Canadian living in the US is having two Thanksgivings in which to do this amazing thing. :buddy:
