A hammock
A harmonica
Some drumsticks

and a fucking melodica which is the coolest thing I've ever seen. I've already learned the theme to The Office.

 

Hot Topic is shitted on a lot and I get it totally, but there still is some good things to be gotten from there if ya can get past the whole "YOU SHOPPED AT HOT TOPIC?!" thing lol.
I've gotten band shirts there a few times if I couldn't find a better place/place that had the ones I was looking for.

 

I used to get band shirts there all the time. It's still where I go to get my black skinny jeans. I'm stoked, I'm probably going to get a couple new pairs of those and then buy Star Wars shit with whatever is left over, haha.

 

Haha I feel you totally, I'm a biggerer framed dude (my family blames the eastern european in us lol) so I can't do skinny jeans but the last time i went (online, since i prefer having the whole stock at my fingertips haha) I got some band shirts to this day I refuse to let my girl finesse me for lmao.
She's REALLY been trying though, especially with my Joy Division & Death shirts lmao.

 

My dad got really into board games this year haha. everyone got at least 1 game.

And then a dress shirt, tie, some running gloves, and a pair of boots.

 

I know I'm getting older now cus I was amped to get some high quality socks and flannels that fit absolutely perfectly lmao.

All three band shirts I got are from hot topic. And I got my girlfriend a Gerard way shirt from there
