Cool, Metroid Dread has a demo, i've been on the fence about grabbing it. I think my least favorite part of owning a Switch is most games come out at $60 and stay that way for a long time. These days on Xbox, even an AAA game will drop $15 within 5-6 weeks of release. I'd rather drop like $30 on a Metroid game but I may just get it anyway because i've loved every Metroid i've played and this demo is probably gonna hook me.

It's a pain, but also I'm going to get an OLED by trading in my boxed launch Switch and 7 games. Not even Smash Ultimate has depreciated much, so with it, Animal Crossing and some other titles, I'll be able to get it for roughly $70 cash.

They're expensive because they don't depreciate, but their trade-in value stays high.

I mean due to space, circumstances and cost, the Switch is all I play. But sometimes I get listless and switch on the ol PS3.

Having to pay almost a hundred bucks a year for online is a fucking scam. Kinda wanna get a PC when I'm in a better position to capitalise on that.

It's fine, but it's not something you can really main unless it's the only thing you've got.

The Switch released in 2017 anyway, the next console should be on its way by 2025. If you've got the original packaging, you might be able to score a couple hundred bucks reselling it at a place like CeX or like a really good secondhand store. Shop around, get a quote etc.

@MrMallard if you have a launch switch then that means it's hackable. People will pay around $300 for one on eBay. Sell it there instead of trading it in.

I had a pretty massive verbal fight with a buddy of mine tonight. I don't want to get into the whole thing about it but it escalated because finances (we're both out of work) and he often asks me to bring weed or asks me to chip in for gas (fair enough because he usually picks me up but fuck man it's not far like barely half a mile) and/or buy him cigarettes. He's not entirely wrong been I've been slacking about trying to find work again since pandemic fucked us both over. He's tried a bit harder. I also have a bigger safety net...

but that's not for me to be fucking around with. That's something my family set up and it was meant to put me through college and I dropped out but fuck me if I'm gonna squander it. No. It's a safety net. It's not fuckin income. I know the decent thing to do is just find a job but it's not like my buddy's been able to do that and we got into a fucking shouting match about finances because he challenged me on something and I hit back and it just escalated in a second or 2 or 3. I'm surprised no one called the cops. He broke some shit in his apt. Once I realized I had gone too far in what I was saying, I tried to calm him down and apologize for my part in the argument but the dude's a 2nd degree blackbelt. He may be only like 5'4 but like I said he's a 2nd degree blackbelt. I can only hold him back only so much physically, and he wasn't trying to fight me. He was just pissed off. So was I. I didn't want him to like trash his place though. He went for his TV at one point and I was like "NO THAT'S THE SAME SIZE AS MINE BUT A BETTER BRAND DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE" and he backed off of it.

God damn I don't know fucking how or why this happened and it must sound stupid as shit or fake (so what else is new. I could tell 200 true stories on this fucking board and people would vote 203 of them as fake). This is a blogfaqds

nah that's a messed up situation, I understand why you're so stressed out. You don't have to undercut it by saying it sounds fake, a lot of stressful situations are abnormal and weird and hard to cope with.

Maybe you guys should spend some time apart and meet on more neutral terms. You're right to keep your safety net and not spend it so much on frivolous stuff, I can see what he means about give and take but you're right to get serious about that college nest egg you have. Maybe stop getting rides with him, though it is winter in America so that might not be an option. That, or weigh the fuel cost with your friend with how much it takes to call an uber.

And unless you're getting some of them, maybe stop buying him smokes? I dunno what that's about, though it's not my place to judge on that. There needs to be a clear set of personal boundaries set by both of you that you both need to observe imo, if your personal boundaries being exerted lead to your friend trashing his fucking apartment that's kinda fucked up.

Yeah prices are already dumb high.

That's a downside... the 4.3 v6 is gonna use a lot more gas than my sunfire did. But I've got limited options.

Lol.

Now thats what I call good modern parenting. I always got a kick out of the kids whose parents seemed to genuinely believe they could say say "don't drink!" and the kid was magically gonna not touch alcohol until their 19th bday.

Yeah, honestly I will be having those conversations with him when he gets to 15/16 (usually the age kids in Australia are exposed to alcohol at parties). It'll be, I'm not going to tell you not to drink, but if you do drink, please do it responsibly, and do not be afraid to call me to pick you up if you're completely fucked up, I'm not going to be mad, I just want you to be safe.

I mean, I might be completely fucked up too, but I'll uber it out to you and at least bring you home safely, lol.

100% how parents should be. Teens are gonna try to drink, smoke and do shit to get into trouble. There's no stopping it. Making sure they are smart and responsible is more constructive.

My thoughts exactly.

My dad would give me shit for drinking but usually the next day, especially if I was hungover.

That said he made it very clear that if I was stuck somewhere and needed a ride to never get in with a drunk driver and that under those circumstances I'd get a free pass for doing the smart thing and phoning.

Unfortunately I was a dumb fuck as a kid and drinking and driving was super common in my grad class so I can't say as I followed his advice on that.

I remember getting super drunk when I was 16 and throwing up in my bed and all over the floor and dad had to clean it all at like 3am. Next day I was shitting myself, he came in to the room in the morning and I was fully expecting to be torn to shreds, and all he said was "I hope you learned your lesson" and left.

I mean, I didn't, but I understood what he was saying.
