Short-term investments (whatever material trinkets you would expect me to have a personal interest in) that I would sell once you've turned your back and then use the money to pay for responsible shit like rent.

Whatcha gonna do? Regulate and oversee my spending?

Criticise your lack of imagination more like.

I was left ten grand in someone's will a little while back, and I considered blowing it all on hiring a venue for a day and getting a load of bands that I liked to come and play.

That never happened, which is a little bit of a shame, but on the other hand, I have a much nicer bathroom in my house than before, the heating and hot water system now work properly, and I have a better hi-fi.

That would understandable if I was to use it on current living expenses, but my imagination would have me use this money to move back to a city. I think it takes less imagination to list off the typical shit I would buy with a disposable income (music, books, various electronic devices).

I'm not talking about CDs, I'm talking about you buying a GOLD FUCKING EAGLE and attaching it to YOUR MOTHERFUCKING SHOULDER, surgically.

A deposit on the FF35.

You're right, I can't imagine anything more awesome and extreme than that.

My weak imagination submits.

If we're talking stuff like that, then having a unicorn horn (the one on the head, not the one on the lower abdomen) attached would be kinda cool.

Some sort of eye, implanted into the palm of my right hand so that when people go to shake my hand I can be all like, "DUDE! That's my MOTHERFUCKING EYE you're trying to squash" and then totally be all, like, blinking at him with my eye hand and shit.

That's rather silly. I was under the impression that you were a very intelligent person, and now I am confused.

Simple: Silliness and Intelligence are not incommensurable; neither are they antinomies. Generally speaking, anyone who seems vastly intelligent but isn't largely preposterous is merely austere and verbose (cf Will Self).

Right now I'd buy a shitload of musical equipment. I need 2 more mic's, a synth, 2 amps, a lot of pedals, a jazzmaster, a sampler, a snare and 2 floor toms, etc.


I'd probably spent the rest of the many on records, clothing, drugs/alcohol. Perhaps a car or something.
