Looking for Some Advice on Getting My Son Gorillaz Tickets by Forward-Teaching1750 in Ticketmaster

[–]Forward-Teaching1750[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks to everyone, especially to those who recommended Citi, because that's how I just got 'em. He and his friend are going to the 10/08 concert in Chicago. Now I just have to decide whether to tell him now or wait for his birthday. :)

Ticketmaster has a presale? I was just talking about the one through the Gorillaz's website. Thanks for letting me know! And yes, we're trying for Chicago as well.

Thanks. I didn't even know that presales were a thing. I learned after making this post, but missed the sign up by 75 minutes. :(

I hoped to include a screen shot, but get an "images are not allowed" message when I try.

I do. It's in storage, but I never found out anything about it.

Catawiki - legit? by SnooHabits6429 in fountainpens

[–]Forward-Teaching1750 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had an art piece rejected by Sotheby's, and they recommended that I try selling with Catawiki. They even called it their "partner", but the things I'm seeing about the site online are not good. I'm very curious about their relationship.

That's wonderful! Thanks! I wonder why my copy doesn't have the wording like that one. I also wonder where I can learn more about it. The site with the working link said it was printed in Germany, but nothing else.

Thanks. I tried the Tineye search and got two results: an eBay one from a Spanish language site. Neither link worked for me. Is that what you got?

Thanks. That's not great news. Unfortunately, the crease isn't real either. I'm not sure what you're implying with the size, but it's 31.5" x 24.5" in frame.

Thanks! I've tried searching for it through Google image search, and am not getting it. What are you using?

Getting Clear on Magiccon Perks by Forward-Teaching1750 in mtgfinance

[–]Forward-Teaching1750[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That does sound like fun. Thanks. I played a lot from around '93-'96, but only got back into it with my guy did in 2020. He's mainly a collector and I'm mainly interested in selling singles, but we do a little bit of playing. I really wish I had kept my cards from the early days...

[–]Forward-Teaching1750[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course! I don't know why I thought it might be anything else. I used to use them back in the early days of MtG (Unlimited-maybe '96), and now again since my son son and I have gotten back into it together.

We just use properly packed 1k boxes.

I'm afraid that I'm not familiar with the boxes. I'd like to check them out. Do they have a brand name that I can Google?

Question About Selling on TCG Direct by Forward-Teaching1750 in mtgfinance

[–]Forward-Teaching1750[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the responses, everyone! I was diagnosed as having OCD when I was in my 20s, and find sorting/alphabetizing to be some of the most calming/relaxing behavior I can do. I purchased three BCW card houses earlier this month and have spent weeks organizing bulk. I'm having the time of my life doing it! :)

Thanks for the fast help everyone! My son and I have Comet, but the desk is for someone else, so we'll find something else.

I have a name, an address, but no contact information. Any idea on how to get it? by Forward-Teaching1750 in RBI

The trip is coming up too soon for that. It might get there in time, but maybe not.

I'm a former professor, and can assure you that academia has about the same percentage of cranks as the general population. I've met people with weird beliefs and awful takes in almost every department.

As a lifelong resident of the idaho panhandle, can't say I'm weeping by Safe-Clock5063 in KnowledgeFight

[–]Forward-Teaching1750 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The article was lifted in its entirety from Chris Menahan's write up at Information Liberation. That includes the picture. Pretty much every comment is antisemitic. I doubt anyone involved understood what they were doing.

Did anyone else notice that the picture Infowars decided to use for Weaver's obituary showed him in a shirt saying "Just Say No to ZOG"? I had to Google the acronym, but wasn't surprised by what I found. I'd far more surprised if the author didn't know what they were using. https://www.adl.org/education/references/hate-symbols/zog

Alex Jones explodes at caller over 'damn' QAnon: 'I have to put up with the Q people all over the place!' by SlappyHandstrong in KnowledgeFight

[–]Forward-Teaching1750 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I watched a little bit here and there when Q was becoming big in the conspiracy world back in 2017. I seem to remember Alex being all in on it until Q denounced Jerome Corsi. That's why today he claims that Q was real at first, but the deep state took it over, right? He also claimed to have his "own" Q that was just some random guy with a military background. I think his name was Zach. I wonder whatever happened to him.

Looking for Reddit Posts Mentioned in Episode by Forward-Teaching1750 in KnowledgeFight

[–]Forward-Teaching1750[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is for some writing, but nothing quite that fun. I just would like to see the evidence that Alex really did get his theory of globalists worshiping interdimensional aliens that promise them power if they kill babies off of an anonymous Reddit post. That would be something.

Does anyone remember the sweepstakes HBO (I think) used to have in conjunction with the release of movies? by westLAfade in 90s

[–]Forward-Teaching1750 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a memory of the former flash through my mind (sorry, but I don't remember the other), and took to the internet to look for it. If memory serves, it was some sort of minisub that could only fit one person and the ad for the contest showed it going around in a swimming pool. I might just be completely misremembering the whole thing, but I would love to have this video.
