    I've thought about a tattoo, but I'd rather spend my money/express my personality in other ways. :p

    I'd contest that a tattoo is in any way an expression of one's own personality. If anything, it's the tattoo artist doing the expressing. And then after that, it's the person looking at the tattoo who has the job of interpreting its meaning, so their reaction then becomes an expression of their personality. The personality of the person with the tattoo is taken entirely out of the equation. You're like the wall of an art gallery.

    Personally, if I were really going to get a tattoo, I'd like to sell the space to advertisers.

    Certain tattoos can absolutely be an extension of personality... religious stuff, sports things, etc.

    Tattoos subsumed under conspicuous consumption as a reflection of identity...makes tattoos seem even less interesting than they already are.

    Why do you ask questions to which you already know the answer?

    Hopefully those clubs where hipster filled.

    Oh wait are clubs to mainstream for hipsters?

    That has some nice specs. I currently have a Lenovo and it feels so cheaply made like the Gateway I had in college. When I first bought it, there were keys popping out and I had to send it back for replacement. It was awesome. I was on the phone with the rep and they wanted me to pay for shipping. I said I'll just go back to Staples and return it and buy something else. The rep put me on hold and informed me that they'd be sending a box with the shipping already paid. I haven't had any issues except for the fact that it's an AMD so there are performance issues that I've noticed, but no overheating thankfully. Please let us know how the new one turns out, Rylo Ken, after a couple weeks of use.

    I'll ask. I think she's also paying for a Lenovo service agreement. Not sure it's worth it, but it's her biniss.

    Hello besties! Seems like a week of happy developments for a lot of you. Let's hope it stays that way for a while.

    I'm officially in the third trimester, the famous "get this baby out of me already" phase. Getting a bit nervous, but also eager to meet my little one.

    I'm in love with it! It's pretty swollen and angry in the picture, but that's to be expected. Going back in a month for the color!

    Over $2,000? Yeah no thanks. I'm going to look for something cheap and fast.

    I'm probably a year away from facing the new computer question myself. I'm divided on whether to get a MacBook Air (if they're still made at that time), MacBook Pro, or another iMac. But, I've got some time to think about it. For now, I'm using the 2011-edition iMac I bought right after Election Day in 2012.

    Price a little too steep for my blood, but it did remind me that I needed to leave feedback to the store I bought a book from recently.

    my wife does what she wants for her business, but no one else in the family is getting a $2k laptop. Mine was something like $800. It's cheap and fast, but the battery life is crazy short.
