It's a mini Nintendo. It has mini cables. Seems logical to me.
You should set it up in a smaller room, so you get the correct proportions.

When your IH package finally departs Heathrow after being held for two days and the estimated delivery date was yesterday.

I was down in Birmingham yesterday for the motorcycle show there, and travelled by train.
Everything went fine until I reached Preston on the return leg. I was meant to catch a connection just after 8 pm, but it turned out to be cancelled. Apparently there was a staff shortage, but I never found out the exact details.
The next train was due just before 9 pm, so I had an hour to wait. That would have been fine, except the service turned up about an hour late. No explanation was ever given, and about half the time the board displayed an ETA (which got pushed out further every few minutes), and otherwise it just said "Delayed".
I think that it was about 11 pm by the time I got in. I'd left at 7:30 am, so it was a very, very long day.

ordered my helmet and visors. decided to wait after receiving an email about stock on the gold iridium one. but now, they can only expect the visor in 2017. damn if i'd known, i would've just not waited and taken the option of having them ship without the iridium visor…

When i first got into raw denim i baby'd my first pair but then soon realised it was a pain in the ass and i wasn't getting any good fades. The less i give a fuck about them the better they get.

You have no idea. For awhile, we were getting a ton of posts asking "OMG! I got my jeans wet, did I ruin them?!?" and "should I get special hangers for my jeans?" and my personal favorite "how do i treat the leather patch so it doesn't explode into a shower of sparks and a cloud of smoke?" (ok, that last one was embellished, but only a little)
On the flip side of things, at one point someone got puked on and they refused to wash their jeans.
One of my favorite posts is from Mega, when he pointed out that people get raw denim to reflect their lifestyle yet they insist on having the hygiene of a turn of the century miner to get kewl fadez.
I've become very cynical after being a moderator for so many years.

Whew… That covered all of the bases, lmao!
Something so simple has been turned in to rocket science by some... But, to each his own!

I always like people saying they put their jeans in the freezer rather than wash them!

I tries that when I was new to denim. About an hour afterwards, they start to stink again.

That being said, destroying IH gear in the wash is definitely possible. @DougNg, didn't you wreck your cotton duck jacket? I also think @hectic (ex-moderator) destroyed his superblack shirt.
The washing instructions that are accompanied with IH purchases were taken from one of my posts. I've learned a few things over the years and have a few more tips to share. I'll try to post them in the next few weeks.

"Washing your jeans in the ocean" is another favourite of mine.

For reasons of my wife not wanting other washing and the washing machine turning blue, I throw mine in the bath with whatever detergent we have available. I do this when my jeans are dirty.

Agreed to all the above. I've had people ask me, "I've never soaked a denim shirt. How do you do it?". I usually say 'the same way you would jeans' but I really want to say 'does your family tree fork?'
