Seems to be really popular on redflagdeals I bought one for $179 when it was on sale but have not used it yet.

My wife's mechanical keyboard and mouse are both louder than mine.. she also has RGB enabled on both in Rainbow mode of course. I don't even have RGB and she doesn't even game

I'm probably gonna get that if it goes on sale. Was waiting for the Autonomous Ai to drop in price but I missed the boat on the Best Buy sale last month.

I bought it for $160 after tax when it was on sale and I also used a coupon code. They usually have a 50% off chair sale at least once a year, maybe more. When I bought it it was mid-May.

I have laminate flooring and the original rollers were loud enough to bug me, so I ended up buying these rollers (https://www.staples.ca/products/7498...rs-black-5pack) which were definitely worth the extra investment. The chair is pretty much silent now when I roll.

There is also the hack/mod (https://imgur.com/a/XwE7F) where you mod the head rest to make it more comfortable if you have a longer torso since the stock height could be pressing into your upper back.

My friends are firing up Left 4 Dead 2. We haven't played in almost 10 years. We were mowing down hordes at the highest difficulty. Now, we can barely manage normal difficulty. haha.

Recycle/throw away cleaning and shipping materials as the contents dry. Wash hands for 20 seconds. Put everything away after the packaging is dry and then I’m done.

The only ones that I know of that aren't cement are the ones at Confederation Park or at Burnaby Central.

Not quite Burnaby but Mercer Stadium in New West if you feel like driving there.

SFU has a track if it isn't too far. It'd be nice for a drive with low gas prices?

They're not dirt tracks. Come to think of it, most soccer fields in my area would be good for running

Ikeas Markus chair always gets good reviews, I'm not sure if they're open? But you can find open box ones at time for a lot less, friend got one like that
