You should see how much I spend on racing fuel (super high octane), car parts, track fees to drag race my car and motorcycles.
Oh, and all the guns and ammunition I go through in a avg. year would scare you.

I don't even play Magic and I still lol'd at how ridiculous this card is. What next, a card that lets you punch the opponent in the face?

For those who aren't following the newest stuff in MtG: Annihilator means that whenever the creature attacks, the defender has to sacrifice that many permanents. Infect means that the damage dealt to players is dealt as Poison Counters (if you get 10 or more Poison Counters you automatically lose).

My totally uneconomical car is my biggest expense I guess. I spend at least £250/month on petrol alone ($400) and it could be much more than that if I don't drive it economically (which = not getting the most out of it). That and it drinks oil as well as petrol for running not just lubrication and it's a luxury. If I didn't want to keep it to standard configuration because there are only 480 of them I'd definitely port it, re-map it, induce it, maybe even turbocharge it, etc so thank goodness for lucky coincidences.

Damn, son. My 5.3 liter V8 4WD truck only needs a tank a week ($45) and it only gets 15 miles per gallon.

Railworks is a simulator. Like with say MS Flight Simulator, there are loads of 3rd party expansions for it. The difference in here is that they're all published on Steam by the vanilla game's publisher. This isn't like the traditional DLC content drip like which mainstream "AAA" publishers do. The simulator market works differently, 3rd party commercial expansions have pretty always been a cottage industry in that niche market.
No one is forcing you to buy every single expansion pack either. It isn't driven by a fucking Pokemon, "Gotta Catch 'Em All" mentality.

Well deduced. How did you get that then? Power of Google?
Googles. Nope, that didn't work.
gunsmoke - a. we have the most expensive petrol in the world, I'm sure, b. mpg in the US is different to the UK (damn splitters!) and c. I drive just under 2 hrs a day (perhaps 1hr 45min) and this car is, despite only technically being a 1.3L, a drinker of petrol. I do manage to get about 25mpg (UK) out of it but that's only because I drive a lot of that 2 hours in 60 and 70mph zones. I don't even want to think about what it would be like if it was all in town!

MMO's aint expensive.
I guess I spend the most money on music, I guess it puts me somewhere around 500€ a year. I jog, which costs practically nothing, but my coffee enthusiasm is putting me under for over 200€ a year not including machinery I might buy.

Had to be a wankel engine if it was using oil on a regular basis under normal circumstances. Knew there was also a Prodrive limited edition as I was considering getting a 231PS RX-8 a while back, but got put off by the fuel consumption of even the standard car TBH. Nice car, though.
SubJeff on 9/2/2011 at 19:27
The fuel consumption isn't that bad. It's about the same as a Z350 or S2000 which are the same-ish class, but more expensive. The RX8 is a very good drive and you could do a lot worse for the money. It's also quirky as hell and that's what I love about it - no pistons, suicide doors, actually fits 4 people comfortably. Oh, and it takes out Civic Type-R rudeboi racers. :p
What did you get in the end?
