Uni are you a smoker?

Does anyone else smoke?  I loved the comparison with smoking and the TMX.
I'basically given up when people say "Oh that expensive machine."  if they feel that way go for it. I would never think to say that re their tv or theatre system. I agree, it is just envy.

Exercise is a dirty word... Every time I hear it, I wash my mouth out with chocolate

As a very vocal, excited owner of a tmx (2 actually lol) I hear this kind of stuff ALL the time, people are so rude! I would never take it upon myself to question or make snide comments about what others spend their money on.

I agree with you 100% there Coops. I earn my money so I will spend it on what I want, and I respect that other people, with their varying incomes and wants, will spend different amounts of money on different things.

I have spent thousands of $$ on books over the years because I absolutely love them, and people always ask me why I don't just get them on loan from the library. Sometimes I feel like telling those people that I will spend my money on what I want, and since I don't smoke, drink, buy lotto or waste money on take-aways, I think I should be able to buy myself a new novel now and again without being criticised by nosy know-it-alls like them.

Sorry, bit of a rant there :-))

Coops
Please
Forgive the nosiness (interested curiosity) - why and how do you have two TMXs? I think I would love to have two but just need to come up with extra excuses (justifications) for doing so...

Thank you!
