    There’s a tool sharing program in my neighborhood. You pay like $20 a year for access, and come by, borrow a tool/leave a tool. It’s great as people leave lots of big tools sitting around doing nothing.

    I want that for computer parts and wires.

    Lets pool our ps/2 keyboard adapters and VGA cords together!

      You’ve already got a decent business name for it (minus the “@slrpnk.net” part)!

          It needs a catchy theme song. Something like:

          Neeeighbour tools…
          Everybody needs good neeeighbour tools

          and then I don’t know, a saxaphone or something

            There is a long running tv drama called Neighbours in Australia. Should just re use that one.

              Australian here, too many words

              It’ll sound of from what I remember the song sounding like but I don’t actually watch it and have only heard it a few times on TV

              I used to watch that show everyday after school. I still vividly remember the theme song.

              Neighbours in Australia, yeah!
              Coming at ya like a man on fire
              Libby and Harold and all the rest
              Come and get it all of your chest, yeah!

                That’s not the one I remember, but I may be getting it mixed up with home and away. It has been almost 15 years since I have seen the show.

                  I’ve heard home and away has gone to shit recently but I don’t actually watch it because it doesn’t interest me

                  Home and Away also had a kickass theme:

                  We’ve never been that long together
                  You and Fred, and Eva, and Heather
                  No matter who you are
                  You’re not shy you star

                  And the very first moment I sold you
                  I never felt such a motion
                  I’m walll-kiiiiing oh nair
                  Just a gnome (just a gnome)
                  You were deeaaad (you were deeaad)
