    A friend of mine is battling cancer. He had a wish list of stuff he was asking for that he was hoping people would provide - just basic stuff like snacks to munch on, etc. At the end of the list, as a joke, he put “a katana”.

    So I bought him a katana. He was so fucking happy, and I was happy, too.

    Fuck cancer. Buy swords.

      Getting someone a gift they truly love is better than any gift I’ve ever received. You’re a good friend.

    I have been influenced by the motto “Buy once cry once” several times even when “Buy nunce cry nunce” would have also worked.

    I bought a warhammer, and then I thought to myself, “You know what’s better than having a warhammer…?”
