Heh, I just had to buy a washer too. The assholes who delivered it managed to put a hole in the linoleum and break the hot water valve.

I picked it up from a Sears Outlet store and installed it myself. Those delivery guys are freaking knuckle draggers.
Now I just need to find someone on Craigslist that will take my old washer off of my hands, or I'll just end up dropping it off at a recycling center.
On the plus side, the new washer kinda sounds like a spaceship.
A few years back when my washer & dryer were being delivered and setup by Sears the dryer didn't want to sit flat on the ground. The installation guys just took a piece of cardboard and wedged it under there saying that was the only option. My dad worked for a few years delivering and installing them after he got out of the army like 35 years ago. He came in my place right after and just plopped down on the ground and found the piece to adjust in about a minute and called the other guys lazy dumbasses.
All it takes is a crescent wrench to turn the legs to adjust the height. It's not rocket science.
We had a Sears authorized installer put in our garage door opener. He had called us (20 minutes before he had arrived), asking us to open the garage door for his arrival. He did a decent job with the installation, but the asshole stole my weed eater, after he had asked me to get a light bulb for the overhead unit. While I was getting the bulb, I had heard the sound of something dropping in the back of his truck. I'd thought that it was him dropping his tools into the bed of his truck, until I'd noticed that my weed eater was missing from the garage wall. I couldn't dispute it with Sears, since I had my garage door open for 20 minutes before his arrival. Sneaky bastard!
Boom Blocks(wii) - Haven't popped it in yet, but Spielburg's involvement usually brings about SOME interesting element or another; I figure there was a reason this is five bucks.
Dustforce (PS3) - This is still a speedrunner's dream-game, looks REALLY nice on PS3.
Lost Planet 2 (PS3) - The online is clunky in the way that I remember Phantom Dust being clunky, but multiplayer monster killing is neat and the deathmatch mode has some highlights to it.
I've heard good stuff about Boom Blox. Also bought it cheap a while back but have yet to play it =X
Dustforce is SO GOOD though.
DANG the sense of momentum when you double-S-Rank a stage full of downhill slides, wall-jumps and ceiling runs is the best thing. Favorite game of this sort for me since Super Meat Boy.
Between this and the proper bongos version of Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, I'm super-happy on high functioning platform games at the moment.
After a short amount of time spent with it, the game's balance feels kind of rough. Now, given, I'm kind of rusty at Puyo Puyo, but I was getting trounced against a player who was playing Tetris on their side. There's much more complexity to Puyo than Tetris, and I feel that makes it not only a slower-paced game, but also one where it's easier to just get completely screwed.
Still, it's an interesting mix, and I need to get back into practice. There's also a bizarre "mash Puyo and Tetris together" mode, that's as intriguing as it is weird.
And yes, of course region free. Only region-encoded game I've ever heard of was the first Persona 4 Arena.
Boom Blox is the best party game on Wii. Guessing the game bombed (har har) hard that EA didn't milk it to infinity. It was also supposed to be the first of three Speilberg projects with EA, not sure if the last two ever surfaced.
There was a sequel.
Reading up on it, interesting how The Spielburg 3 he was supposed to make with EA kinda turned into the Spielburg 1 plus an update. Looks like they couldn't get the Wii head tracking thing to work and he lost interest.
More Iron Fist and digitized armpits

I hope you got that Pit-Fighter board on the cheap. It is not a very good game. ;)
It will be in 30 years when all the baords have been trashed to turn the cabs into gas station digital bingo machines
Konami was the Japanese distributor for Pit-Fighter?
I like Pit Fighter. It's not a good game by any means, but there is fun to be had. I used to be able to beat the home ports, but that guy must be a god to 1cc the arcade. I never could figure out how to effectively defeat multiple enemies by myself.
I agree! I think Pit Fighter is a perfect 'video game object' even if the game isn't particularly playable. That thing just screams early 90s arcade game.
Especially with multiple players mashing the buttons like madmen!
There was a noticeable lack of Fairy Fencer F posted in this thread.
Mother disapproves.
yeah...no
