Afford Nothing 2010!

Hey guys! It's that time of year again - the time to be poor in material wealth but rich in smugness about how you're not going to join in the orgy of consumption now known as "Black Friday"! This year I'm turning my nose up at the Shake Weight, an unnecessary item that, aside from the frequently-noted imagined rudeness of the shaking motion, is also just really dumb. Plus it looks like a guaranteed tooth-chipper. Forget that noise, I'll shake up my old man's Steel Reserve Evening Beers for exercise! Note to self: tell him about this plan. Or, if laughs are needed, don't.
