I Heart Swear Words

I had lost my USB cable for my MP3 player. It’s the dodgy kind of MP3 player you buy through ebay that gets sent over from Hong Kong for a ridiculously cheap amount of money. Needless to say, replacing the cable is mighty expensive. If my memory serves me correctly, the generous people at Tandy quoted me almost as much as the MP3 player cost me in the first place.

Being a newly formed tight-arse, there was no way I was going to spend stupid amounts of money on something like that. I was having a whinge about it to a friend over the weekend, and after I completed my diatribe he took me to look in his rather impressive box of cables. After about 4 seconds of searching he came out with the exact cable I needed, and gave it to me for nothing.

I heart free stuff.
