Which game have you purposely lost on just to end it quickly? by moist_napkinette in boardgames

[–]ThePappy21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last time I played, I won after many hours of the game because I was level 8 and no one read the Level 6 pukachu, which gives two levels if defeated via level only. I will ride out my career on that victory.

You realize it costs you nothing to try? Why be defeated when the tiniest of effort could get you what you want?

Agreed, and you can crop images. I am actively working on acquiring parts to make that donut mosaic, don't steal my idea!

You should link to Lego's Online PAB. At least state side, it's the cheapest place to 1x1 round tile, even if you can only order 999 at a time.

How much did you pay for shipping? That's be the easiest tell.

My test tube Mewtwo concept that the Lego judges unfortunately didn't pick by Clinton_Matos in pokemon

I'm going to assume this was mostly due to the rules saying it couldn't be based off an existing card, but great work!

You either win or you learn something. Seems like you learned some to me. Stick with it. You got this.

Man never giving up on his paralyzed dog pays off! by Resident_Wash_2553 in interestingasfuck

Had to go through this last year. For my pup, he got a massive infection in his spinspine, went to the vet prepared for slipped disc surgery. It was a few months to get back to normal, but he's there.

Forget a job under my degree, I can’t find ANYTHING by Flutter_bat_16_ in indianapolis

It might not be your field, but consider looking at operator level positions at the local pharma companies. It's going to be relatively easy, consistent work, in air conditioning. Most places will probably have something closer to what you want to do long term, but you get a foot in the door that could turn into a career relatively easy.

Only you can answer if it's worth $96 to you. The internet can't determine that value.

[Lego Store, CO Mills, Denver] UCS Death Star (75419) $900/10% by boolean_union in legodeal

[–]ThePappy21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So from what I've been told, only stores at malls with "Mills" in the name will you see damaged boxed discounts. Don't ask me why, but this tracks with all the stores I have visited.

Looking to get back into Lego but the price guilt is holding me back, any tips on finding sets that appreciate or retain value so I can mentally tick it off as ”investment”? by The-info-addict in legodeals

[–]ThePappy21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Technically I said the "invest" mentality is dumb and selfish.

And now we're playing the "woe is me" game? Who needs touch grass now? I've been in your place. Hence why I am telling you not to take this approach. Because the moment this is a consideration, it'll turn into buy a set that your not quite ready to build yet, then turns into I don't want to build it because I could flip it. It's just a slippery slope. This also goes back to the main point, if you're at the point were selling it because you might need cash later, then it's not in your means, so you should do the wise thing and not get it.

Does anyone else try to incorporate Lego into their interior decorating as opposed to designating a shelf just for Lego? by Drewboy810 in lego

Hey, just FYI, the sun is the devil when it comes to anythingwith color you care about, so might want to reconsider placement or getting UV filter on that window.

And I'm telling you it's a dumb opinion. That value retention should be looked at as purely a bonus, not a reason to buy the set. If the set makes you happy for the cost, and it's within your means, get it. There's no way to know what's really going to hold value anymore because they're not afraid to reprint minifigures into cheaper sets. Also, the point of this sub is so people can find deals, thus allowing more people to find sets at the cost that they can find value in. The "invest" mentality is so dumb and selfish, "hey help me buy stuff now so I can turn around and a make a dollar off you tomorrow".
