OVERWHELMING GRAMMATICAL ERROR, MEANT TO READ 'BOOKSHELF'. HELP ME OUT MODS.

Being the real life high fidelity gaylord I am, I love top ten threads. Here is another.

Basically, for some bollock reason that I can't even begin to care about inventing you are sent to spend the rest of your days on a deserted island, but - here's the delightful thread-worthy catch - you are permitted to take ten albums with you, ten books and ten dvds (as we are a skate forum, let's say 3 of them HAVE to be skate videos (relevance? in MY SK8UK?)) and ten games which you can watch, listen to read or play as much as you like until you cease living. So stuff you're never bored of basically. COME ON SK8UK, have some fun you soulless pricks.

Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
