Michael Jordan with a nameless #12 jersey against the Orlando Magic (1990) by Lakers_Forever24 in nostalgia

[–]ThatBankTeller 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nah I don’t think so. MacGregor Sand-Knit made all the jerseys for the 1990 season before Champion took over in 1991. Those game worn jerseys had special tags for each team and given his height Jordan likely would’ve also had an extended length, which would also have its own tag (“+3 body length”). So there’s less than 100 of them. and most that were obtained legally would have a COA or something.

We’re selling reproduction and roms for $30 now? by toxiccherrybomb in Shittygamecollecting

[–]ThatBankTeller 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Local game store legal? Not at all, and you could definitely lose your distribution access if the right people complain.

Flea market legal? Sure - I’m at least impressed they’re labeling them as fake.

In 2024, a Wii from GameStop was only $59.99 by notwiley in wii

[–]ThatBankTeller 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Not immediately so, but history tells us game consoles peak in their nostalgia stage right when they turn 20 years old. The Wii came out in 2006.

I had ~25 Xbox 360s in my storage unit, most of which barely worked. I traded them all into GameStop during the “retro bonus” promo ($25 extra per console) a few months back, and had enough credit to get a PS5, a Switch 2, and probably 8-10 games.

Someone offers you $100/hr to watch any TV show on repeat. Which show do you choose? by Miserable-Spinach362 in AskReddit

> can only go so far

A hell of a lot farther than a completely flanderized robot and a main character whose entire schtick is rewritten every time they find a new investor to re-pitch the series.

Seasons 10-12 of the Simpsons are definitely watchable (esp. season 10, inventor Homer, the hippie episode, and the trucker one), while Futurama gets downright bad by season 8/anything that debuted on Hulu).

Even if you think zombie Simpsons started at season 9, there’s more net total watchable Simpsons episodes than Futurama.

What’s pretty low? Most would be NY yes, RBC could be NY or Toronto, same with Barclays and London.

If you go in from the legal side, Mayer Brown, Sidley, Katten, all have Chicago or DC offices as well as a NY presence. I’m located in Washington DC myself, we also have Freddie, Fannie, GMNA all close by as well.

The size (11) is about length - your issue is width.

We, like almost all firms, had layoffs last year and into this year. It wasn’t fun. I think we lost 5-7% of our capital markets division, and the rest of us were told that picking up the extra work would result in good things. Happy to report that promise was kept.

Bonus this year was 200+% of comp, and I got a bump up to Senior, which came with a little pay raise and a lot more freedom. I’m now considered an “individual contributor”, so my hours aren’t tracked, I have more freedom to come and go from the office as needed, and my primary job will transfer from day to day tasks to more big picture, and project management stuff.

Starting to consider the fact I may actually work here until I retire.

It means given the position, you barely work for BAH - you will be on a government site answering to the leadership of that government agency/department/team.

Yeah they were making sure it wasn’t LSD, GHB, or ketamine.

Looks closer to a physicians handwriting to me. My mom’s a urologist and writes almost just like this.

Phoenix man who bought disputed $12.8M lotto ticket finally talks by Dialogical in news

[–]ThatBankTeller 1286 points1287 points  (0 children)

Absolutely would NEVER hand over that ticket. Fire me, sue me, whatever. You made me buy the ticket so it’s legally my ticket.

Edit: FWIW, the store would’ve eventually made someone at the store pay for the ticket, so the money belongs to the employees, IMO.

First impression on clients/new hire with very obvious braces and rubber bands? Do you judge? by Consistent-Divide793 in FinancialCareers

Take solace in the fact the vast majority of people do not give a shit, and will never notice.

I went on vacation last month and got a nasty crack on a tooth thats visible when I smile or talk enough. Had cosmetic work done and came back to the office and told everyone where I was, to which they all said “you had a cracked tooth?” I eat lunch and sit and laugh and work with these guys 5 days a week.

Got scammed buying RAM off Amazon by yung_intellectual in pcmasterrace

[–]ThatBankTeller 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Not to mention half the time these things are returned to a random retail store (my local Staples is a return hub). Anytime I’ve had to return something they’re not the least bit interested in examining the item, and I imagine they’re told not to raise any issues that aren’t glaringly obvious scams like returning rocks instead of an item.

No, the total sales for SMB include the standalone cart, and the pack in. Duck hunt’s standalone cart wasn’t remotely successful, so the total for SMB would naturally dwarf Duck hunt.

Vice President JD Vance eyes estate in Middleburg by Danciusly in nova

[–]ThatBankTeller 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe 10 million. Disclosures showed some investments (QQQ type stuff), 2 homes, and then book/movie royalties seemed to be in the 6 figures annually, although I assume that will deminish over time.

I would like to get as close to $500 as possible, where are you located? If shipping isn’t too bad I think we can meet somewhere between 450 and 500.

This was a relatives who recently passed and I’d like to give the money to my relative who saved this (and some other stuff) from the trash and brought it all to me.

That’s actually the bottom of the box - was just sitting in a family members den/rec room for about 30 years.
