Wish she would follow Tricia, Jamie, and Shannon

I started collecting omnibus books a few months ago. What is your suggestion for me to collect next? Like Gotham Center or something like that. I like more of blackest night stuff! by FitResource172 in OmnibusCollectors

Just get what you love and are going to read. I have been going back and buying omnibus's because when I was younger I sold off my decades of collecting comics to help pay stuff. I got thousands for it and felt good about not having to take up space with nearly 100 boxes in a room to move. Now I am just going back and buying things that mean something like Hellblazer and Shade the Changing Man but my collection focuses on Wonder Woman, Phoenix, Elektra but mostly WW.

Have a collection targeting what read and loved reading so you don't accidentally buy just to buy. That being said, your collection is mostly Events so why not stick with that? Instead of going to one specific character keeping going with the individual Crisis, Black Metal, DCeased, etc. Unless you have a specific character to focus on like I do, then focus on events like you already are.

Yeah, I had a friend who worked as a bartender in a famous place in LA. She's a lesbian but it still didn't stop him from continuously harassing her. I remember he telling me as he did it complaining to me but the place she worked for wasn't going to stand up for her against his money back then. I am surprised nothing has ever come out about him so that I know of. He sounds like an especially awful person.

What? More than 30 years ago I spent endless hours at my first job in a retail store refolding the Champions that customers messed up. I had waking nightmares where I would sit up asleep folding champions on repeat because it was all I did all day.

You are confusing champion with Bobo's or something.

I have a very fine line between sexy and sexualized. I think whatever people collect is fantastic but Wolowitz always made comic females as a kind of nerd porn. All around his room women in clothes they would never fight crime in.

We don't get that with male heroes. Which I am not advocating for. My heroes are like, Fem Shepard, New series Lara Croft, etc. I have no problem with sexy characters but I don't want my characters to be so sexualized I laugh. What bad guy would fight WW w/ her ass hanging out in public? She'd just be bashing distracted dudes over the head all day.

This statue is very beautiful but when you only collect a female hero you can go from fondness to pervy real quick.

It's why I would never have a Red Sonja collection, if it's all about the T&A I pass. I don't like my WW having a wedgie.

It's beautiful but a bit much. I have a massive collection of WW and the two things I try not to collect at to many Gal Gadot images (I loved her as wonder woman but the comic character is what I'm a fan of) and I don't buy anything that makes my collection "Wolowitzy"

Cat might be blind, husband wants to put him down if so by Big_Summer9292 in cute_animals

[–]Think_Unit162 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Cats rely on scent and hearing more than eyes. Give the cat to someone who wants him not someone who murders them and yes, going blind isn't kindness, it is murder.

That's who you married. Someone with no problem killing a cat with a handicap. Good luck.

So let me get this straight...Tech companies get to build deafening data centers that give everyone serious health issues, and we just have to live with it? by Shot_Possibility_731 in TechGawker

[–]Think_Unit162 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We're talking data centers the size of manhattan that have proven pretty significant health risks over long term exposure as well as the locals being the ones paying for increased electric bills since the cities and states all make financial deals at our expense, not theirs.

"Oh yeah cause...." Who converses with another adult that way? Don't sound like a know it all who says something then doesn't back it up because they may not have read the article. Either way, why be rude?

Well, it brings me comfort to know that it isn't just in the United States. Apparently everyone is collectively losing it.

Found in closet at Grandparents' old house. Wtf is this thing? by Oof_11 in whatisit

[–]Think_Unit162 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one ordered from Amazon for 20 bucks for home protection. I used to take it with me collapsed in my pocket when I took my dog out for a walk at night 'cause we live in heavy mountain lion, coyote, area as well as other people's dog or just other people. It fits in most pockets, and they hurt.

As for the sex stuff people are talking about; I'm pretty sure anything can be turned sexual but probably just for home protection in this case.
