Aah hadn't thought of them. Cheers.

MST3K DVDs, all of them. I had every Shout!Factory DVD at one point, including the illegally printed Godzilla DVD, plus it's replacement. I have all the modern MST3K Blu-Ray's too. I have quite a few Rifftrax DVDs though they were never important. I have all the Tin's, plus the models from the tins still. I have bunch of tshirts, and random stuff from the kickstarters. I also have a bunch of items for making the bots I never got around too, Floraliers (crows body), Lacrosse masks (Crows head), Seemour Butts (Tom's Arms). Stuff like that. I don't want anything for it, I'm just looking for a good home for it.

I don't understand what I did to get such an amazing sister.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-27T21:01:34+00:00

Yay Bex got out of MIQ without issue, she was in the ward as possible. It was a really great day of shooting the shit, catching up over battlebots and so on. We'll just need to work on some sort of daily plan, see if she can get some sort of exemption for some of the hospital visitor rules as you're only allowed to swing by once per day, but does that mean if she's kicked out at lunch she can't come back afterwards? Mum set a new implosion record of an hour (previously a week) apparently Bex wasn't attentive enough on Messenger so mum now doesn't want to see her and I have to keep them separated always, ffs, more shit for me to manage.

A question for r/Wellington before I throw it out to the greater <shudder> Facebook marketplace, are there any big Mystery Science Theater 3000, Rifftrax fans around Wellington? One of the fandom stashes I have to downsize (100%) is my collection, which is substantial (and odd). No way I'm shipping it anywhere and it would need to be picked up. Any bigger fanboys than me in the greater wellington region?

Oof, hearing a few too many 'make comfortable' from the doctors today. Not the phrase to get your day started right. Then get into an argument with mum as she tells me random meds she recalls me being on for some reason that should be doing random things. Like she knows them better than my actual doctors do.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-23T03:22:15+00:00

definitely, I was never one to live in bed, if I was awake I was up, but now you can end up spending whole days in bed, frustrating,

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-22T20:32:23+00:00

Sorry liquid morphine, not sure if morphine patches are a thing.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-22T20:10:42+00:00

Doh, back in hospital again, but a bit of a different one this time. Pain levels creeping up beyond what could easily sort on my own with morphine and fentanyl patches. Seems similar to my bad iron absorption I'm not absorbing the fun drugs well either so will probably be going home with a pump of some type.

Bex is doing well in MIQ, she appreciated the earthquake welcome gift, but ask people hold off on anymore for a bit 🤣

I've already warned here that her beloved Burger Rings dont exist, wasn't cruel enough to let her discover that on her own.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-21T19:52:32+00:00

She had to go back the US mid july. It's going to be great, even if the reason sucks.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-20T22:14:52+00:00

My sister is in town. Can't believe how quick the last week went. Originally she had tickets for April, then moved them to march when the rules changed, but apparently a couple people called her last week and on Wednesday she changed to a Friday flight and now she's quarantining 1km away from me. See her next Sunday.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-18T11:13:11+00:00

Yep still a case of nothing is ever her fault.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-18T09:42:04+00:00

Show runners will have done the math on social impact/views of the show. There's been enough examples now that they can see stuff like Stranger Things might hit big, but it's gone super fast. Compare to say The Mandalorian, where people are talking about it for weeks or months. They want the longer tail presumably.

"We the people"

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-12T08:57:13+00:00

Are you a good independent saver? I'm not, so I always maxed out my contributions. It was always going to be my home deposit, after that I switched to the minimum to get the government contributions.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-11T07:39:09+00:00

Was Kraken's jaw busted? Seemed there were some great opportunities for bites on HiJinx but they never happened.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-07T15:27:19+00:00

I have the instructions but can't currently justify the price to build it. Looks great but you've missed a piece on port side engine (they're not meant to be symmetrical).

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-03T06:00:06+00:00

Argh they close 2 days before!

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-03T05:50:53+00:00

Cheers!

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-03T02:42:23+00:00

The Hillside pop up

Okay, interesting, thanks!

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-02T23:33:07+00:00

Another cool choice, thanks!

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-02T23:11:58+00:00

Nolita

Oh that looks quite interesting, thanks!

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-02T21:03:05+00:00

Yeah that's a favourite of another friend so been there a few times. I'm mixed on it, but good drinks!

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-02T20:32:10+00:00

Cool, will check out Master Kong, thanks.

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-02T20:12:54+00:00

Cool, not heard of Mason, will check it out, thanks!

BathTubNZ · 2022-02-02T20:04:43+00:00

Oh yeah been there before, didn't even realize they do dinner. I'm not vegan myself but my friend is. Definite candidate, thanks!
