Have custard in the same bowl using the same spoon every time.

Lots of people do this, but it's probably quite rare for people my age (23).

I love watches. I won't spend more than 250ish on a night out, any amount of money on a playstation etc or 4-500 bucks on a TV or a smartphone like most gen Ys, but I'll happily drop a grand or 2 on a quality automatic watch that really takes my fancy.

Hell the other day I seriously considered buying a GMT master II 11670 BLNR before deciding against.

All this for a timepiece that is less accurate than a $10 quartz watch.

i have a $80 watch that ive been using for like 4 years. but i'd trade that for my xbox in one nanosecond.

Well I really liked the Nintendo 64, I didn't mind the PS2 but didn't use it all that much and since then I've had absolutely no interest in buying one. A guy I used to live with was super into it and had a PS3 etc with plenty of games and he would take annual leave when a new game came out to sit there and play it for a week straight. It just didn't interest me in the slightest.

Agree. People have told me that they eat Maccas in the same way. DA FAQ.

They also think it's extremely weird I place my maccas on a ceramic plate before I consume it but that's another story for another day Ig...

shell, im sure when you posted that you were thinking "i wonder if PN does the same...". well to answer your question....YES!

i like to put burger and fries on the plate, presentation is what its about.

Need a good watch if you want to have a good time.

Was specifically thinking of KFC as I posted, as I recently had this conversation with a mate while we enjoyed some fine KFC. He did what you do. Ate all his chips, then his burger, then had his drink.

It's wrong, damnit. Wrong!

What if you get thirsty while you eat?

Drink is always there if need. There is also coleslaw to be had during.

My daily watch costs $800, but it can also make calls, texts, surf the Internet, and play games.

It's easier isn't it PN.

Who wants to be digging thru a god dam bag everytime you want a fry? Not me. And also if you make the bag your "plate" you then get grease n shit on ya lap.

Plate all the way, glad you're with me.

I googled that watch Simple Jack.

Turns out he likes more than just the "simple" things lol

If you don't hobnob with millionaires there's no point in having a Rolex, you'll probably just get mugged some day.

Get one of these instead

You know a watch is serious when it gets an article from gizmodo

There's no point in having many things, other than for simple enjoyment.

Lot's of people on average incomes spend the same amount on things I find ridiculous. It really is up to the individual.

Having said that I never even seriously considered a Rolex until I had lunch with someone in Italy who was wearing one (however her one was much more expensive than the one I want). It was visually striking even from a distance and up close was the most (visually at least) exquisitely made thing I've ever seen.

Each to their own really, kind of the purpose of this thread.

Well, that went right over your head. Unsurprising.

So what's holding you back then?

 

[Fyfetheknife]

I soak my hot chips in vinegar. I literally just pour it on.

May have posted the same thing in this thread previously but here it is again.... I'll always sit in the back seat regardless if I am with a group of people OR the sole passenger in the car. I just feel safer in the back than I do in the front. When I first did it as a joke I thought it was mildly amusing (kinda felt like being chauffeured around Limousine style haha).

 

[Simple Jack]

So what's holding you back then?

There are other things I would prefer to use that money for at this stage. That's the main reason.
