The gb boy color is pretty great from what I've heard. And if you're cheap I'm sure there's fake carts you can buy on aliexpress as well.

I might consider this. I still have the original GB but my Color went missing. I probably let some of my HS friends use it and then just never got it back. Well I'd need to get the games to because most of them were with the color :(

It seems like the site has changed policy though and no longer lists things like full addresses and phone numbers. or at least from the few random entries I looked at. Maybe you need to be a registered user or something to see it, but it seems like things aren't as bad as they used to be, when they would more or less throw all one's personal info on it and there was a lot of potential for someone to use that information for nefarious reasons.

Jumping on the AliExpress sticker bandwagon, here's a selection of the pack I just received. Pretty happy with them, although a few probably won't get used where I work (in a school).

I'm pretty sure you could have that shirt printed locally on a nice cotton T for that kind of money?

We need to revisit this becaus I got a chance to go through the rest ofthat store. If you're looking for something cheap that you can turn around and markup (Etsy, craft fairs, flea markets) this is the place to buy from.

They have prints of just about everything from Beatrix Potter (huuuge with moms) to cool skulls (rebel 13 year olds) to cutesy owls (moms again) to big cheeked kids (grandmas) to pinups (tumblerinas) to Totoro (um?) to lovely bird and flower prints to cutesy cats and dogs and bunnies and fairies to the grandaddy of money makers - Christmas crap.

And we'r talking loooow effort turnaround - spray mount to foam core/balsa/mdf/cork, glue into an embroidery hoop, sew a solid color backing on then stuff then add ribbon to hang, frame it in cheap/thrifted frames.

$$$$$!

edit: 9 inch MDF circle at Michaels crafts is .80 cents. Dude. DUDE.

Those ones specifically? I just got the regular fidget spinner article for you. http://www.focustimes.org/boise-idaho-man-rushed-hospital-fidget-spinner-became-stuck-anus/

quote:

A 27-year old man from Boise, Idaho has been rushed to hospital after a fidget spinner became lodged in his anus. Surgeons were forced to operate on the man to remove the device, which had become stuck after he used it inappropriately.

So, I might've created a monster. My wife has been sending me links to wigs and dresses. Today she asked me about wig stands for the two wigs she just ordered. I'm probably going to just cheap out with a couple of these high quality Styrofoam Foam Mannequin Female Head Display Stands Model Dummy Wig Glasses Hat Display Stand. But some of the fancier models are downright uncanny valley. No way in hell I'm going to be sleeping with those creepy fuckers staring at me from the top of her dresser.

These are honestly a lot better than the styfoam heads. Heads fall over if you look at them sideways. I didnt grab the cheapest one, just the first example.

Wig holders are nice, but cosmetic heads really let you add some Silent Hill to your life.

I can't picture a world where a sheet of paper has more custom fees than a USB cable, I think whoever prints the label at the factor just set it to USB Cable a few years ago and no one sees a reason to change it
