Well, I don't much care for him, but for those of you who do, the Pikmin and Olimar are returning for Super Smash Bros. 4.  Personally, I'm still waiting to hear about Zelda and the new Fire Emblem character.

So my dad paid the fine, because my mom made him. My mom didn't want me to go to jail under any circumstance. Now I just owe my dad back. He absolutely DOES have the right to ask me to give one of them up, because I'm still living under his roof. When I have my own place, I'll get back into Magic the Gathering.

So now I owe him all that money, and he's a lot lest strict about due dates than the law. The ticket was originally $20. I'm okay now, I suppose. It's just gonna suck, because I really wanted to go to comic con this year... Now I have to save up for my costume all over again.

I had $80 in the costume fund, $40 in the Pokemon Y fund, $70 in the Wii-U fund, and $30 in the smash bros fund. $200 in the bank (waiting to be taken for bills), and like $30 extra spending money. All of it poofed in the blink of an eye. All of my sadness  :'(

edit: yeah, I'm 21.

Video games can be a pretty significant drain on your finances, so I can see why he'd want you to give them up.  But then again that is $600 you never should have had to pay in the first place, that's just the po-po being greedy.  How much did they want you to pay for the original fine?

ZV, aren't you 18 or older?  Because if you are, it's nice that your dad is concerned about you, and that he wants to help you, but he doesn't have the right to ask that of you, not unless you playing video games is what made you fail to pay the fine.  He can ask you to pay him back, but that's about it.  Your hobbies are not his business unless they are negatively affecting other areas of your life.

Hey now, hey now - you aren't in jail. No video games is nothing compared to that.

This is like... the most significant thing he's asked of me.

Woah, what the? I'm so sorry, ZV, that's awful. How long are they trying to keep you?

And can you borrow enough from family or friends to pay what you need to pay?

So I got pulled over on a failed inspection.
Took care of it the very next day, and went to the police station to pay my fine.
They told me- come back in 5 business days so it can register.

So I was going on vacation in 4 business days.
Whatever. I'll pay it when I get back.
While on vacation, my girlfriend got 2nd degree burns from the sun, and had to be hospitalized. I took care of her for the next couple of weeks after I got home, and forgot about the ticket.

So now I get a notice in the mail that I missed my court date, and that I have to pay $600 or I'm going to jail.

Spoiler alert: I don't have that kind of money.

So I went to set up a pay plan- $200 a month.

Spoiler alert: I don't MAKE that kind of money. $120 for phone/insurance, 137 for car payment, 80 for the tires I'm still paying off, and now 200 for NOT JAIL.

In short, the police are coming to my house to throw my criminal butt in jail. I'll talk to you all again when I'm out of the bighouse, and my the insides of my anal cavity have been thoroughly rearranged

JOY.

"This is really awesome!"
They also did Gangnam Style. It's kinda painful to listen to them try to sing in Korean. Also, I don't understand why they censored "Eyy, sexy lady" as "Eyy, ey lady." Sexy isn't a curse word. I mean, I understand why they wouldn't want it in a song but still.

And if you guys ever feel like checking out their cover of "Bring Me To Life" by Evanescence, it's always good for a laugh to listen to them make a dark and depressing song kid friendly.

I'm bumping this because every single one of you needs to listen to the Kidz Bop cover of "Thrift Shop"
