Is the professor saying to buy more because the money will be of no use beyond the grave or saying buy less because the useless crap you bought will be of no use beyond the grave?

I bought a warhammer, and then I thought to myself, "You know what's better than having a warhammer...?"

I got my buddy a so called tactical Warhammer for Christmas once. Upon unboxing he immediately when into his backyard and obliterated a cinder block. Never seen that guy look so happy.

I started off with melons and coconuts but have switched to filling up old yogurt tubs with water and freezing them and then smashing the ice blocks. Less cleanup.

Mc Hammer?

BonesOfTheMoon OP ,

10/10 fine purchase.

Playing Warhammer?

Jkjk, that's a much more expensive hobby than collecting historical weapons

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.

Thank you. I try. I haven't always been, but I think I'm getting better every day. Work in progress.

Jesus would approve.

Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one. — Luke 22:36

Yeah, but a third isn't necessary.

“Look, Lord,” they replied, “we have two swords among us.”
“That’s enough,” he said.
--- Luke 22:38 (NLT)

That's a very dangerous philosophy

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