    Ive been wanting to buy a flash card for two months now but something keeps getting in the way!
    Its gotten to such an extent that i think im jinxed!

    First off, i was doing my exams, then my uncle had a major operation, then my dad got attacked(as in got roughed up by a bunch of chavs who he didnt allow to cut him off. They came out at a stoplight and fought him. He didnt get too hurt luckily, hes strong. Couldve beaten them one-on-one) Then my uncles business goes bankrupt, family visits us, my mother declares her paranoia of online shopping to me(so i have to find another way to buy my stuff), and now were moving house.

    What do i do????

    Well your convenience stores may still have them, which is why I mentioned it.

    Call of Duty?????

    Anywyas, ive conferred with a few friends of mine and ive decided to send the money via western union to them and they pay for it using their credit card...
    if only i could find the right moment to do it...

    im afraid that something will come up again, like me getting my exam results back and it turns out i sucked(i hope not, i put too much effort into them) and she decides not to give me the money to buy them...

    Up in Khan El-Khalili there be this Suq run by a big-eared nigga named Hassan. In order to lure him, imitate a chicken as loud as you can next to the main entrance of Midaq Alley. A guy will approach you and say "Salam. Jahosh teez!". Your response should be: "W'allah?" and drop your pants. He will check for a wire in your underwear (best not to wear any) - ignore the clay that's stuck on his fingers (and now on your ass). He will tell you to follow him. Don't, instead, drop to the floor and yell "I Am Shaitan!". One of the people from the crowd that gathered around you will approach you. That's the guy you want - Hassan Dajjal.

    He sells everything.
    I ordered twelve gallons of Liquid Uranium for a science project last year for the price of only two children.
    He likes to eat fresh dates so bring him some (both the fruit and the other kind. Best to offer him a young child with fruit attached, just to be safe)

    Oh, and don't stare at his left eye or mention the scar on his forehead - he will chop of your legs and beat you with them if you do. Then have a guy named Bullufa sow them back on and make you walk a cord from one roof to the other while throwing dateseed at you. Both kinds of seed.

    It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

    > what is a grue?

    The grue is a sinister, lurking presence in the dark places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

    I dated a big hairy Moroccan bitch named Sharmuta Budur. Her brother Mamhun was a radical islamist that made me recite the Qur'an every day, naked, while pointing towards Mecca, with my asshole (somehow he believed it would protect him from invisible
    people he calls "Jinns", that can turn into everyday household objects unless hit with seeds, upon which they dissapear).

    Actually, I did research some of this stuff just now (Egypt) and previously (Dajjal/Jinns) for a project I'm working on. I also have many Muslim friends due to there being many in my town who teach me shit (Like cursing in Arabic and Berber). These days I think I'm one of the few westerners that won't fall to the floor screaming when seeing a Muslim.

    use one of those nice sellers that use the other nice guys namely western union/money gram.

    The later will ask you to pay 3 times the actual price to cover "expences". the first will never send you your cart

    ....but hey there's always hope ^^
