[usr] I was so thrilled with my gift for my 9th birthday! [sys] You still remember what you got for it?  It must have been memorable!  What was it? [usr] It  sure was. It was a Super Nintendo which was epic because we were very poor back then. [qst] [None] [bhv] I'm in a negative mood, please comfort me.
Oh I know that feeling!  My family was the same way, and I still remember coming home after my last day of 6th grade and seeing that same SNES box sitting on my bed.
I felt this way when my father bought me a Super Nintendo for  my 9th birthday. We were very poor so it was unexpected!
