Invite Me Over For A Bowl!: Unopened Box Of 1988 Nintendo Cereal System Sells For $200

I know for a fact I used to eat Nintendo Cereal System growing up because I still have some Link bits stuck to the roof of my mouth. But had I known I could pawn unopened boxes of the deliciousness on eBay in 2010 for $200, I might have stockpiled the stuff (or at least saved the boxes, refilled them with Crunch Berries, and glued them back shut). THIS IS AN ORIGINAL NINTENDO CEREAL SYSTEM FROM 1988 WITH TWO DIFFERENT CEREALS IN IT, SUPER MARIO BROS ACTION SERIES AND ZELDA ADVENTURE SERIES. COMPLETLY SEALED IN THE BOX. IT IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION FOR BEING A 22 YEAR OLD THIN CARDBOARD BOX. ONLY ONE DISCLAIMER IT WOULD NOT BE WISE TO EAT THE CONTENTS OF THIS BOX EVEN THOUGH I NO YOU WILL WANT TO. I THOUGHT ABOUT IT MENY TIMES MY SELF. The box sold for $207.50 plus $4 shipping. So, which one of you bought it? And, more importantly, when are we eating it? I remember one of the cereals tasting like shit and the other one being good. Well I call the good one. eBay Auction via Nintendo Cereal System Sells For $200 [nintendolife] Thanks to Blackheart, who actually aspired to be Black beard but can’t grow facial hair.

I Need A Rx!: Pill May Help Erase Memories

Finally, doctors are developing a pill that can help erase bad memories . Yes! Take two and forget to call me in the morning. The method, using existing blood pressure pills, could be useful for weakening or erasing bad memories in people with post-traumatic stress disorder, the researchers say. Some ethicists see problems, question whether such treatments begin to alter what it means to be human. There’s apparently a natural way to rid yourself of bad memories, too. A 2007 study involving brain scans found that test subjects had the ability to suppress specific memories at a particular moment in time through repeated practice.
