The "I really want one of these" thread
« on: August 29, 2018, 10:18:51 am »
I was looking around to see where I could post this, I couldn't find anywhere suitable, so decided to make a thread where you can post your 'new' tech fantasy lusts in.

So I'll start it with this...

Want one!



I don't do polite so fuck yoursalf with your stupid accusations...

Right you fuckwit I will show you why you are talking out of your fat arse...

I would love to own a electro scooter. Not the ones with a seat. Just stand and ride.

Been thinking recently that I'd love a good telescope.

You see all these great pictures of the stars/planets on the net etc. without realising there's tech out there that will enable you to see them first hand.

This...

I genuinely have no idea what I'd use it for, as I'm not a PC gamer (or gamer at all for that matter), but I want one.

For some reason I thought that looked like an electronic chastity belt when I scrolled over the pic. Not even thinking as a metaphor

Not technology, in fact it's over 45 years old, but I have one eye on one of these. With thanks to a family member who is no longer with us, and chose me to have some of her wealth, all I need to do now is convince the wife that it's an investment and won't lose value.



Should be in the Car Lust thread maybe.

The Korg Monologue analogue synthesizer.  I've always been into electronic music, but I've never tried to make it until now.

It's true to say that if Shankly had told us to invade Poland we'd be queuing up 10 deep all the way from Anfield to the Pier Head.
