gollark: I've seen something like that with a hedgehog.
gollark: A technique which may be efficacious is to give each item a "desirability score" out of, shall I perhaps say, 100, and to compute the quotient of the price divided by said "desirability score", in order to calculate which products will most effectively satiate your desire for gaming.
