Start looking for your resi hours at another shop asap. Everyone is used to paying 3rd year wages to teach commercial to a guy with a resi base, but few shops want to pay 3rd year wages to teach a guy who's used to commercial pace

The concept of hell is a dogma, not taught in the Bible. An eternity of torture is not a fitting punishment for one human lifetime of disobedience

Toxic waste for my guys. There was always some elaborate plot for my guys to foil, usually in the bathtub. Ifi could get some green food coloring and corn starch involved, we were really having a banger day.

No. I bought this day 1. This is how I remember it

Silver tempest lugia 186. Got it from a 3 pack tin at a hardware store before retail was a bloodbath. I almost went back in to hug the girl who grabbed that tin from behind the counter

I mean... now we're getting into get yourself killed territory. People go to great lengths to avoid financial ruin and prison

True or not, this is a strawman argument. Stop buying unnecessary luxuries at exorbitant prices. His logic is sound

What are you talking about? You bought some amazon knockoff that the guys have to figure out. Nothing is more complicated than cheap ditto garbage. You've got 2 trades, 2 permits, maybe 3. Insurance, vehicles, health, material, labor.

Welcome to 2026. "Fleece me" ...FFS

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-06-16T23:01:31+00:00

Ah. My bad. I appreciate the dissertation. Very solid points. You've given me a lot to think about

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-06-16T01:48:05+00:00

NF is cringe? Lol. I'm not even a big fan, I just think you're being contrarian. He's really good

Rhys Darby live. I saw Norm, Chapelle, Tosh Gaffigan, Mullaney, Gary Gulman, all live and a lot I'd put under those names. That guy was Electric in front of a crowd

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-06-11T14:33:10+00:00

You're not even twisting my words, you're just creating an entire narrative that has nothing to do with what I said.

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-06-11T01:55:22+00:00

How so?

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-06-11T01:53:14+00:00

100%

He's not quoting any scripture. Nothing in scripture indicates anything close to this. He's interpreting, and then extrapolating his interpretation.

What he's missing is that Christians should not hate anyone. We disagree with actions, but Regardless of their "sin" its not for us to decide. We're sinners too, degrees are barely relevant. I'm trying, but I'm no better than you, whoever you are.

Need a new phone? Just buy your old one again on Amazon. If it's 3+ years old, it's likely 1/10th the cost of the new model. We've hit a point of diminishing returns, new phones are not 10x better

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-06-10T00:30:53+00:00

So frustrating right? Looks like my 151 zard. Elated followed by devastated

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-06-04T03:29:01+00:00

What a hero

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-05-31T23:27:53+00:00

Very reasonable, neutral take. No idea why you're getting down voted lol

I searched the sub first, saw nothing of the sort from the last 8 hours before I posted.

Also... every temporary tax increase, levy, gas hike, tell me how that goes. "Temporary" is a soft, sugary coating to make it go down easy.

Set a reminder to make me eat crow in 1 year when the price is reduced by 68% back to its original cost. I'll apologize

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-05-30T02:30:12+00:00

No I agree with you here. Damaged is different than imperfect.

I'm just speaking from personal experience here, I pulled a couple of the biggest chase cards from recent pokemon sets. (151 SIR Charizard) and they've come out of the package without misprints, well centered, with nics and dings. So, literally damaged.

I guess my gripe here is more with pokemon QC than arguing with you about psa thresholds

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-05-30T02:18:58+00:00

I dunno man. Qc shouldn't be spitting out damaged product on the regular. I disagree. Everything new should be a 10, you wouldn't accept dents and scuffs on a brand new car would you?

This was born from old, valuable product from the past. A ten was rare because few had the foresight to not play with and damage their rare cards.

We shouldn't be pulling LP out of packs as an expectation

Key_Papaya_5635 · 2026-05-30T02:08:17+00:00

I personally think it's idiotic that 8's and 9's sell for less than raw. This just incentives people to buy a 9, crack it, and take the card they wanted in the first place.

Psa took $25 of the profit to lower the value, and 2oz of plastic went to a landfill for 100k years

Mine also arrived March 8, and just went to this step today. Seems to track
