My box of cables shall be passed down through the generations!

It'll be a cold day in hell before I give up my cable box.

I'll need this LPT cable eventually, then you'll see. You'll all see.

My cable needs aren't so obscure yet that monoprice doesn't work. Of course, maybe monoprice is just that good, IDK.

My box of cables is with my ex. I hope to retrieve it one day.
