Thank you sir. I was sticker shocked, and still am, but my friend is more than willing to pay it I guess.

Oh man, that plamoya site has so many awesome Fate sleeves and deckboxes... they're all like $20-25 though. I might have to just suck it up and buy some. After my sales list generates some more money.

Another day another warning at mtgs. I have half a dozen of those now. Don't they realize that sometimes people just deserve to be ridiculed? The MOTL community sure as hell realizes that.

Not everyone. I don't care for the ridiculing that goes on here and it's one of the few reasons I don't spend much time outside of the TA/S forums here. I'd rather have people say stupid **** than have half of the threads on this site degenerate to arguments because people can't stop insulting each other.

Anyone know roughly how many cards will fit in a $5ish flat-rate box?

So just so you know, I'm not refering to childish name-calling or anything like that. In this case, it was a guy that posted multiple times in multiple threads bragging about his edh deck with 21x foil planeswalkers (jace tms, karn, etc), 10x foil fetch lands, 10x foil shocklands, various judge foils, etc etc but unlike others on that site with pimp decks - he hasn't posted pics to prove it.

My response:
It seems like the more eager someone is to brag about how pimped out their deck is, the less likely they are to post pics of it.

I mean really, if I went on a site bragging about how awesome my deck is and wouldn't post pics of it, then I should be treated like an attention-seeking wh...person.

Today on the way to take the kids to visit their mother, we passed by a muffin place that advertised 19 different kinds of bagels. We started trying to think of different kinds they could be. Then TJ comes out with. "They should make one that's triple grain, multi wheat, bran and name it The Evacuator"

My boy is so funny!

Thanks,
Jazaray

Me? Attention-seeking? Gasp! I'm like so totally not attention seeking.

In unrelated news, I just made a profile on a dating site pretending to be a blonde bimbo with enormous breasts. I like the messages I get - it helps to validate my dreary existence.

It reminds me of Edgar Allen Poe. At least Sixto got to know he was famous and appreciated before he died. Cool story!

I thank you for this. What a crazy story and the music is awesome! What a trip! He's just some dude living in a run down house and was poor and he could have just walked around the corner and sold out shows all week long! He has a great voice! I like how he doesn't use a guitar pick either. More famous than the Beatles in places! Just completely nuts! I really wish he had been able to lay down a bunch more tracks.... I'm sure a lot of stuff was lost over the years

EDIT: Slip Away RULES!

When did "I'm too sick to go to work" come to mean "Sure, I'd love to do chores"?

He probably thinks MOTL will back down because of a frivolous lawsuit threat. Further, he seems to feel like MOTL itself is responsible for the words of a member. I bet neither of those things are accurate.

Here's something I wonder. Does MOTL have grounds to sue people on the CBTL? I mean, I know it's not worth the time or money, just curious.

No idea but MOTL's owner is a lawyer and we have some members who are lawyers. I reckon MOTL is pretty well covered.

Considering that a lawyer wrote the terms of service and all that, I would think there's no room for law suits on any side of things.
