My vote goes for the old shitbox with V8, but that's probably my innate male desire to fix cars coupled with the fact that I've been driving a completely boring Japanese dadmobile for 6 years. Flooring a 4 cylinder inline engine coupled to a CVT doesn't do much for the old adrenaline. Are you really that much of a loner, or have you just not found anyone you really get on with yet? From your posts you just don't really come across as unlikeable or antisocial, just brutally honest and snarky. I kind of feel all alone at times because 99 out of 100 people I meet are fucking idiots, but I'm a social butterfly extrovert so I need interaction in any way shape or form even if it means inhaling random doses of stupid pop culture shit just to have something to discuss. Anyway, congrats on whatever big event you have coming, birthday, graduation from something, promotion to something you want (or demotion away from something you don't want, LOL). Celebrating something is all about YOU, buddy so if that's a gaming chair then GO FOR IT. The best thing I bought with my TrumpVirusMoney was a decent desk chair. My previous one was a complete piece of shit that I held onto way longer than necessary but my lower back thanks me every day. If you love music, sci-fi and solitude why not buy the chair you want, pick your favourite flick/series with the best score, and re-watch it on your laptop/desktop? That's like, 4 things you like combined. (Mine would probably be the short-lived Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles). Oh yeah, my mathematician's answer to your question: if I had a couple of grand, I'd blow it chasing girls unsuccessfully, cause that's kind of what I do with my discretionary money. Cars probably would be better option, but they're not as pretty. LOL
