I got all excited today when I showed Yuko Little Big Planet. She actually showed an interest in it, but I knew she would. She's a girl, and a Japanese girl at that, so I knew she'd love that little Sack Boy character.
Turns out she did. A lot. Then I showed her the little 3" plush character that you got if you pre-ordered the game. She thought it was the cutest thing in the world and asked if she could have it.
I was powerless.
I didn't want to give it to anyone. No way in hell I thought. I was dead wrong though.
You see, both of the Andrews I live near got Little Big Planet (at $72...for game and controller, it's like getting an extra Dual Shock 3 for $10. You'd be dumb not to get it). Neither of them pre-ordered, so they didn't get the Sack Boy character. I realize this is a very shady thing to brag about, but I was excited to be the only guy that got one.
If I may real quick...
(Cartman's voice*) "Oh you mean you guys didn't RESERVE your copy of Little Big Planet for the PS3? I guess that means you guys didn't get the extremely rare plush character that comes along with pre-orders. Too bad for you guys." (End Cartman's voice*)
Yeah, I just wanted to do that.
At least she's putting it on her cell phone, which makes the character MUCH bigger than the phone itself. But what could I do...she was in love with the thing. Maybe next time she'll actually play the game with me.

Chad, you did the right thing. (and only thing....both emotionally and logically)
and your also right to let your inner cartman gloat. you had something the others didn't. immagine your most "kyle like" friend and then immagine waving the doll right in his face!, while going "nyohn nah-nah-nyah nah-nyah!!"
and hopefully your passing it on will help the woman to not lose her cell phone.
plus, next time she gets mad at you for oh,i dunno,...breaking a bookshelf , you can just point at the doll. cuz its a get outta trouble free card.
*thumbs up*, thim.
