I agree with this.

But.

It was still pretty awful.

Video-game developers have way too much time on their hands.

There are plenty of stores around here that are booming that buy games for half of what they sell.

Booming, I doubt. Breaking even? Surviving? Sure.

Booming. Like, multiple locations, putting several other stores out of business booming.

Yeah, well, it's in Canada. So it doesn't count.

Maybe it's some kind of trading law, but in England all stores I've seen, independant or not buy your games for half the price they sell them on.

That's weird. I remember already reading that.

I don't mean that you're repeating a point, but I just got some Deja Vu.

Oh, and this isn't EB Games, Gamestop, or any big-name retailer. It's a semi local local business, so that plays a part.

I won't sell my used games, and I won't buy used games. I want to deplete their new inventory so that they have to order more from their distributor. If I like something, I want the people that made it to get my money.

What if the game is out of print?

I won't sell my used games, and I won't buy used games, unless the game is no longer on the market. I want to deplete their new inventory so that they have to order more from their distributor. If I like something, I want the people that made it to get my money.

Does this please you?

New Modest Mouse video is awesomely weird.

"Whale Song" for Modest Mouse from Bent Image Lab on Vimeo.

Edit: It works now.

Dammit I'm mad.
Evil is a deed as I live.
God, am I reviled? I rise, my bed on a sun, I melt.
To be not one man emanating is sad. I piss.
Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help?
Man, it is hot. I'm in it. I tell.
I am not a devil. I level "Mad Dog".
Ah, say burning is, as a deified gulp,
In my halo of a mired rum tin.
I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin.
Is evil in a clam? In a trap?
No. It is open. On it I was stuck.
Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web.
Be still if I fill its ebb.
Ew, a spider… eh?
We sleep. Oh no!
Deep, stark cuts saw it in one position.
Part animal, can I live? Sin is a name.
Both, one… my names are in it.
Murder? I'm a fool.
A hymn I plug, deified as a sign in ruby ash,
A Goddam level I lived at.
On mail let it in. I'm it.
Oh, sit in ample hot spots. Oh wet!
A loss it is alas (sip). I'd assign it a name.
Name not one bottle minus an ode by me:
"Sir, I deliver. I'm a dog"
Evil is a deed as I live.
Dammit I'm mad.

Mmm, palindromic.
