>Won a copy of CoD Black Ops II from a facebook contest from a random game distributor that posted a steam key online. Ended up not playing it all that much...Pissed off a bunch of people on facebook as well. Oh well.

There might have been a few other times, but those are the ones I remember.

A friend of mine won a PSVR Headset and a bunch of games from Taco Bell, but didn't have a PS4. Sold it to them for cheap since I was getting a PS4 Pro anyway.

Used to work at a Game X Change store where the manager made sure you knew your shit. In the interview he'd grill you about different genres, what systems you owned, your taste in vidya etc. Every newbie spent the first week not at the register but doing endless disc resurfacing, putting new pins in Nintendos, getting random systems tossed your way to test and clean up. Sometimes you'd get handed a 'training' system that was faulty in a strange way just to see if you'd pick up on its issues and why it wasn't fit to take in or sell. I remember customers always chatting with us to get recommendations and some being shocked at how well everyone knew vidya.

Sadly that location closed years ago. I've stepped into other game stores since and employee knowledge of the product is usually pretty abysmal.

No reason, he was a 21 year old serial arsonist who set fire to my Town House complex, and a few other places, some people just do it because they have a few screws loose

But he got caught redhanded and if I remember right he's facing like over 200 years in prison if he's convicted of everything, so when he pleads down he'll still see like 40 years at least.

I didn't have much yet so I got lucky relatively speaking, but it's a colossal pain in the ass and looking out my window to see a massive column of flame wasn't a fun experience

My favorite story was the contest Atari held where they blew a huge wad of their money on a gold scepter, a goblet, and some other wildly expensive shit to give away as prizes for an Atari game competition. (This contest may have contributed to their financial problems at the time approaching the Crash.)

The prizes suffered various fates, one guy had his gold swag melted down and it paid him through college, the scepter may still be out there

Its not a chore, its an endangerment to your life.

You could be the best driver in the world with full confidence and control in your driving skills, but that won't mater when some drunk idiot comes driving down at 40+ MPH on surface and rams into your side, causing you severe internal dmage, and if not killiung you paralyzing you for the rest of your life. Happened to my aunt before she spent the next two years completely paralyzed from the neck down in a hospital bed hooked up to a machine and died in it. I'm not getting into a metal death trap like that ever again when I can just rely on public -25mph transportation to get to and from my livelihood.

My little brother is afraid of driving because of a car accident we were in back when we were kids. We got shoved off the road, hit the bump that lined the freeway, flew 30 feet, rolled twice before landing right side up. No major injuries, but the car, an old honda I don't remember the make, was fucked for good.

If he could drive it would save me some trouble, but the dude is just afraid of being behind the wheel and getting into another accident.

Most driving schools will teach you to find the specific wheel turn amounts for a parallel park. Just memorize and repeat those. e.g. line up mirror, right one full turn, left all the way, etc.

You won't learn to properly parallel park right away, but it will get you past the test.

>Dude why do you have adult diapers

>>389314109
>Four new cartridges
>Only three exist

ATARIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

>>389313624
...........?

Look at all the traffic, someone loves every single one of those people and traffic still happens. You're just chicken shit.

>>389314109
Dude melted it down to pay his college funds. Keep up.

>>389314109
The contest was ended suddenly after Atari was bought out by another company. So most of the prizes that weren't handed out yet just became that company's property who probably just melted them down and sold the gold/gems.

The only contest I've ever won was an Eightarc twitter giveaway for Tekken 7 on PS4.
I already had the game so I just took it to Target and got a gift card out of it.

And they are all sheep. Real people use their legs and walk.

Target requires a receipt as proof of purchase for all returns, and gift exchanges. Nice try.

I won some Gears of War 2 contest on Xbox way back when for getting some achievements in it... I think? I don't even remember actually entering it but whatever. Ended up getting getting 2400 Microsoft points and a $150 gift card to Best Buy.

>>389314109
This is literally the biggest waste of money i've ever fucking seen. Who in their right mind would spend $35k of their own company profits jsut to make some gold talismin that one kid is going to get, and promptly lose when their mother steals it and sells it off for some new dresses and purses? This was the fucking 80's FFS.

Atari rightfully went bankrupt if they seriously thoguht a lame ass game like sword quest would even make then 10K let alone over 30K per cart.

>dude! just like a rocket in Buck Rogers!

>>389314494
Are you fucking retarded. I've done this multiple times with gifts I didn't need. You can return games if they are sealed only, and they can only give you a gift card. Also this is from target's section on return policies, without mentioning the target.com ordering.

>If your original receipt isn't available, you may receive a merchandise return card for your refund in store.

I won a figure from Pangya! from a contest that they were doing for some event.

It took more than a year before they sent it, I had forgotten about it by the time it had arrived in the mail. When I took it out of the shipping box it turned out that it was a different figure than what they showed on the contest page, and it had already been opened and displayed judging by the condition of the box. I decided to just leave it in it's box in the closet since I wasn't interested in a figure that had probably already been hotglued.

I work guest services at Target.

We can return unopened games off an ID with no receipt for the lowest selling price in last 90 days. Open games we can exchange for the same exact game, which we then have to open.

I've got a car but I'm too lazy to get the thing insured, title switched over in my name, and get my license. I was on my way to being a productive member of society but I got kicked out of my mom's house because she wouldn't stop nagging me about what I did with my free time after work so had to quit my job.

My family was always fucked up but it only got worse after my brother's died in a car crash. I'm a massive faggot for blogging I know. Driving doesn't bother me in the slightest and I drive fine it's just the parking that fucked me the time I tried for my license. I'm a broken mess of a person and I'm on the path of killing myself because I barely talk to my only surviving brother while trying to make as little problems for everyone I know that did care.
