Forza 4. It's the only thing I use my Xbox for. Though I may play through Red Dead Redemption again. That game is so good.

Twin Peaks. I have mentally rewritten the ending to not be a cliffhanger, because that really bums me out the way it ended.

Oh, that ending. Why did they do that. sigh 
 
For me, I miss watching Hogan's Heroes. It was on this retro channel every morning for a few years and I loved watching it before school. That show is so good. I intend to buy every single season of it.

Lasso people off of motorcycles. It would be hilarious. And be able to lasso from a car. Instead of hiring a hooker then running them over to get your money back, just lasso them and drag them behind your car.

Nope, never have and never will. I watched my brother go from being an honour student to barely passing after he starting drinking excessively and hanging out with other people who do that too and because of that I never will. Not to mention I have an addictive personality so I don't want to take the risk.

This exact thought has come to mind a number of times the last few weeks. This stuff is so much fun to listen to. It doesn't try to be super serious and it ends up being way more fun than any of the stuff played these days. I'm pretty sure I've listened to every 90s artist the OP listed in the last two weeks.
 
Fun fact, my first CD was Eiffel 65's Europop, and my favourite song was NOT "Blue (Da ba dee)" but the title track. That song has such sick bass.

No.

Yes. Early 90s trance needs to be brought back to life if we are going to strive for world peace.

YES VERY YES. Early 90s Trance is by far the best Trance, especially Acid Trance.
    
I have been trying to find the best remix of Alice Deejay's "Better off Alone" but still haven't found anything better than the original. It's just SO GOOD 
     
By far my favourite Eiffel 65 song: 
 
Edit: I just saw someone mention Paul Van Dyk's album "Out There and Back" and I totally agree, he's not so good anymore but that album was phenomenal. Though I prefer "Avenue" to "Another Way", though both are amazing songs.

What kind of job are you looking for? Do you have a degree in anything or any kind of formal training? Are you actually getting to the interview stage, or not even getting the chance? I really don't know what to say in that I am not fully aware of your situation.

Well I don't really have any real qualifications. Ive had a few interviews but not very many compared to the number of apps I have submitted. 90% of jobs require you to apply online and I almost never hear back. The only job I have had was as a solo bread baker. Which required me to scale and mix ingredients, proof and bake the bread products. I hated it.

I absolutely despise online applications for jobs. It feels like they ignore them 99% of the time. I myself am still looking for a summer job, and have heard back from no one and I've applied at like 30-40 places so far over the past month and was applying for more the months previous. There's literally no where else to apply for here that is looking. It seems like you need to know someone that can get you a job (family friend, etc.).  All the jobs available here are retail management or HR, and all the entry-level jobs have been taken by the huge influx of immigrants (nothing against them, you gotta start somewhere, and they need the money more than I do).

I have never liked the white site, though I can understand why it exists. Some people hate reading sites with black backgrounds. I feel the opposite, which is why the new Tested site is so jarring.

Korean Logitech G1 I bought of Ebay. Cost $25 including shipping and I prefer it to my old G9X, which costs ~4x more money. Super light mice are the best. Wow that thing is shiny, I never noticed that.

Crappy iPad picture of my mouse. Yay for not adjusting settings!

Also, that Razer mousepad (That is a Goliathus Speed to be exact) is much better than its Steelseries counterpart, the QCK. My old QCK started having the edges roll up after about 2 months and by a year in, all 4 edges were separating from the rubber backing, since I kept rotating the mousepad so I could avoid making it worse on one side. This one, which costs a bit more, is not only thicker, but it also has that nice edging stuff that keeps it from fraying or rolling up. Well worth the extra money.

When I was younger I bought DBZ Legacy of Goku over Golden Sun.

Also, I bought Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles and the guide expecting it to be an epic single player RPG, boy was I disappointment.

I liked Crystal Chronicles, but a epic RPG it was not.

That game was much better multiplayer than singleplayer.  I had a ton of fun playing through it with my buddies, stupid GBA hookup thingy and all. 
 
For buyer's remorse, I guess Dragon Age (not the game itself, the game is fine). I bought it on Xbox like 4 months before I bought a new desktop, then I saw how much better it is on PC. I still haven't finished it on Xbox. 
 
Battlefield 3, not only was it significantly worse than BF2, but it was still not as fun as BC2 (Or BC2 Vietnam, which was amazingly fun).  All the stupid flashlight and laser blinding stuff that gives ridiculous advantages, too much glare when out in the sun, too many stupid sights, too many weapon accessories, perks, and all that other stupid crap. It is simply not fun, just like the vast majority of modern shooters. I guess my issue is more with modern shooters more than BF3, they all are just so middling and dumbed down.  
 
Bring back MOHAA, now that was a shooter.
