Why I won't tell my parents about Christmas.

miyabwah

1. Get a SNES and Super Metroid.

2. Don't use a map.

3. Try to get 100% under 3 hours.

 

Best fun you'll have for under 100$.

Parents tend to replace the time with their children with money, which is a sad sight. That's why most of your friends will come back to school in January and be liek "zomg I got liek $800 for christmas!!!!!!1111"

I started a dog walking business when I was 10 and now I walk 3 dogs everyday after school and earn $45 a week (a little over $2 per walk),

that's how I've been getting the parts for my PC. I know its not that much but my build right now isn't bad, I have an 8350 and a 7970.

Also I'm planning on getting a real job In two years when I can drive.

Dude. Parent borrowing from a 12-14 year old?

My parents did that to me but it was only when we would order a pizza or something and there was no cash in the house. I was ok with it cause I wanted pizza also they  usually paid me back fairly quickly.

That's hardly an upgrade for him... if anything, he needs to replace his 250W PSU

Just so you know...Christmas has no meaning, Newton was born on the afford mentioned holiday.

Jesus (if he was real) was born in the summer, not the winter, his birthday was moved for "christmas" which is supposed to celebrate the winter solstice just coz.

It was then later adopted and turned into buy your kids useless shit they don't need and are not thankful for.

 

Christmas as its known today, has as little meaning as valentines day.

I stopped getting presents when I was 14, my choice mind you.  My parents still insist on getting something, which usually just turns into like £50-100 they force down my throat.....parents pshh

 

How old are you?

Do chores

Get a paper route

Do chores for neightbours etc

Lots of things you can do to get money.

 

Also

 

no one reads the newspaper anymore and chores are not something you should be paid to do.

Y'see, you will get to the age when material stuff doesn't actually matter. Either that, or you will use your material things as polyfiller to paper over your own insecurities.

Buy some headphones and wait for the m50s to go for sale for 95 dollars

I don't think the M50s will be sold for 95 dollars, last time it was for 150$ so I'm pretty sure it'll be 150$ this time as well. It doesn't come with a package though.

 

 

Yes, I know you're not talking about Star Citizen

I like Christmas, I usually get something cool from family and or friends. Friends usually get me something I need but don't want but is still cool like a 8 gig flash drive etc.

That technically is true since none of my millions of relatives give me anything. (I'm asian, so anybody asian is related to me. Logic.)

Hi i am chinese.

Your unreasonable builds looks very reasonable to me.

Getting a 4930K+Rampage Black/P9X79-E WS or Single Xeon E5-2640v2+Dual Socket 16 DIMM motherboard or Dual Xeon E5-2620v2+Dual socket 16DIMM motherboard.

The problem is this computer is used to restrict my cousin's laptop(Domain controller,group policy),not for me to enjoy(most of the time).
