I have just gone and pulled the trigger on a pentax kp and theta m15 bundle.

*Runs around screaming*

First time I've bought a brand new camera body in over 10 years.. usually I buy secondhand...

but omg omg omg omg.

Hyperventilating and excited at the same time.

819,200 iso baby... bring it on. Here's hoping I can shoot in the dark!!

This is the most expensive/amount of money I've spent to date on one single item. *gulp*
Someone hold my hand???? lol.

Looking forward to seeing them on here.

Replacement dishwasher as current one has failed pretty terminally (internal water leaks leading to heater failures) and so due in a week or so - but luckily still under manufacturer's (BOSCH!) 2yr warrantee.

Me, too, but no warranty valid ... got another one from Ikea (again - it's an Electrolux), except this time with a five year warranty ... but the rear foot is missing so a piece of wood is doing the job for the moment. Argh !

Stale SMUs are the result of heretics and fools. But as they take on moisture they likely swell rather than shrink.
Stale SMUs? No such thing. Just dunk them in yer coffee!

Sony WH-1000XM2 -- love the sound (from a person who is after the sound), love the functions. It feels so liberating to listen to music without an attached cable outdoors with perfect noise cancelling. Man, do they get uncomfortable over time, wish I can wear them 16 hours straight :/ Guess next time I'll go for Bose quiet comfort -- they just need to introduce the techie stuff too.

I also purchased an Essential Phone PH-1 for 224 dollars from Amazon + 67 dollars import fees and shipping. Then I cancelled the order, because I talked myself out of it... wish I could own the phone just for its very nice design, though.

I don't think he quite understands how emotional girls get.. lol

Thanks. Here's hoping. I've loved my k-50 stormtrooper, but it's not doing what I need. I will miss it though. And am still itching that I couldn't get the silver and black version of the KP
