Your games are on your console, that's what you're with. I moved to Utah
and while I get a leg up, I'm basically on the street. That means I
won't be able to play my PS5 for at least a month.

And the shit is heavy. You've got the big system, the controller, the
wires, and the buttheaded pawn shop doesn't know its value. These are
$500 machines and the stupid foreigner at the pawn shop said

- Duh it smells like smoke.

- Duh what is this liquid on it?

* I've dropped my phone in the bathtub and it still worked. There

was a very light coating of liquid on the console because it had
been raining and my
backpack isn 't waterproof. It was nothing and I could have
easily fired it up for him to see it working JUST FINE.

- Duh we only want the PS5 version that takes CDs.

* What a stupid asshole. All the games are online, only people who
don't have PS5s would make such a daft request.

So, I tell him, I only wanted $100 for it. He says take it to the other
guys they'll give you $100 for it.

It was a big emergency. I needed $30 to pay for my mailbox P.O. in order
to be able to receive mail in Utah.

So, I said, What about $50. And the pathetic moron even refused that.
10% of the price and this idiot doesn't jump for it like he's supposed
to. These guys really hate shelling out the money...

So, I go to the Baseball stadium and find a ramshackle house with an
office chair sitting out front and I unload the PS5, the controller, and
two of the cables that came with the product onto the office chair.
Needless to say, it was long gone by the time I returned 12 hrs later.

It was so good they came back for the office chair later and even took that.

The problem with consoles is your games are on the console, you don't
get any permission to them other than owning them on that console.
Whereas my steam account has followed me from Utah to Illinois and back
to Utah. My number is sitting at just over 700. Where's yours?

Basically the reason I gave it away was because it was some 20 pounds
added to the weight I carry around with me every day. I reduced that
load as best I could. My Alienware is sitting in a locker with its power
cord to reduce that weight and I'm working with the Dell laptop which suffices. It has a broken hinge and I have to be careful opening it -
the slightest force could disconnect the monitor cable if someone was
not careful. I took it to the shop and they said they could repair it
for $21. I'll do that very soon.

Pharaoh was so pleased with Hadad that he gave him a
sister of his own wife, Queen Tahpenes, in marriage.
The sister of Tahpenes bore him a son named Genubath,
whom Tahpenes brought up in the royal palace. There
Genubath lived with Pharaoh’s own children.

Nice to hear you're a homeless loser.
Try sucking on a black man's dick for
some extra $$$.

Different strokes for different folks, homie. While that may have worked
for you while homeless, I maintain a dignified presence and ate at
Little Caesar's today after hiking halfway up the mountain. I should
have gone to Domino's. It would have been way easier.
