DO WANT.

Is.. is that dumb? I think that might be dumb.
FOXHOUND @ May 23rd 2008 6:59AM
Only because he hasn't sold it on eBay yet...
spottednigel @ May 23rd 2008 2:08AM
Personally? I'd fit a Dreamcast in that thing.
Also, the humor when fitting a Wii into that may just break a funny bone or two.

I thought about that, actually, but then I realized that I'm not a modder and would probably end up wrecking both the box, and my Wii. :(
I still haven't figured out what to do with it, outside of making it a gun safe or a burn box.
Haggard @ May 23rd 2008 9:10AM
Just glue the front side of the Wii to one side of the box, put some packing material underneath it and cut holes for the on/off button and disc tray.
Of course, it might overheat, but I suppose you can just open the box on hot summer days.
Chase @ May 23rd 2008 3:31AM
Well, it sure beats the way other Joystiq users uses it: secure spooge rag box.
If I had to know-how, I'd wire it up to explode (a different take on Light's desk drawer in Death Note).
BananaBoat @ May 23rd 2008 3:43AM
I'd....say you are the only one using it for that purpose.
I personally use the box to lock away my pokemanz. If you ask nicely enough, I'll show u them.
(Note: My personal brand of comedy becomes low-brow as I get more and more sleepy)
Chase @ May 23rd 2008 3:52AM
Ooooh, pokeymanz! O.O; Did'ja catch'm all?
BananaBoat @ May 23rd 2008 3:59AM
Yes. I caught all 150. I also "caught" (stood in line for, outside, in the freezing cold) Mew. Also, I won Surf Pikachu from a tournament at a mall. My pokemanz collection was second to nun in the known universe....atleast until that retarded team rocket came along and stole my pokemanz....Jesse distracted me with her nudity, while James and Meowth removed the pokemanz bawls from my fanny packz. I never recovered from the emotional trauma.

That all sounds like it would make some horrifyingly riveting slashfic or deviantART project that I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole.
Waffle Slayer @ May 23rd 2008 10:48AM
Pics of Jesse or it didn't happen.
booticon @ May 23rd 2008 12:07PM
Well, I *was* going to use the lockbox to store drugs, but this may be a better idea.
Waffle Slayer @ May 23rd 2008 5:07PM
Nice one, girl scout.
