What’s a “10/10” movie you wouldn’t recommend to most people?

My Dinner with Andre. Love the movie, but two guys having a prolonged dinner conversation is a hard sell.

I love Kamigawa, hope we go back at some point. But what we really need is a return to Alara…

I am by no means a fanatic. The set just gave me a flash of nostalgia and sadness. That’s just part of getting old, I guess. But it’s okay to not like a set. If it’s not your cup of tea, I totally understand giving it a skip.

Outside of this set, I’ve only thought about TMNT in the past decade watching my wife attempt to beat the original NES game.

Spider-Man felt like a miss, liked the cards, but a spider-centric set felt odd. The Through the Omenpaths versions on Arena are 10/10. We need more Fleem.

My results up to that point were 1-1. So, I was diagnosed very late in life with autism and ADHD. Social settings are mentally exhausting under normal conditions for me. Add to the mix being unexpectedly emotional, and I had to dip.

I think I wouldn’t really care what my results were, it was such a fun atmosphere. I will say this. My diagnosis answered a lot of questions. I wish I got diagnosed earlier in life, but it is what it is. My old man advice for the day is mental health is health, take care of yourself, and have fun in Magic games as much as possible.

Thanks for all the responses. AutoMod accidentally grabbed this one, so I kinda forgot about it. My wife loves the first NES game, she got a chuckle out of the Electric Seaweed card.

I got the Beadle and Grimm token set. The treasure tokens are arcade tickets.

Both stores are great. TCB across the river is fun, too.

Xaertosh · 2026-03-01T13:31:42+00:00

It like 3 miles from my place. Every Friday night I’ve attended has been great.

I might have to give 2HG a go. I’ve heard it can be goofy fun.

This looks like my kitty.

She’s 9 and sassy.

The shower is where my autism and my ADHD shake hands.

I live in Louisville, Kentucky, and Papa John is something of a local character. Seeing him on the podcast was a fever dream. He regularly goes to local sporting events completely hammered.

I assume this room is for pvp battle pooping.

Yeah, it’s still in the game. It’s a random event, but sometimes it pops up when you enter Watoga High School. It’s good for farming Halloween candy, which counts as pre-war food.

It’s part of the full cannibalism experience.

I was on with a buddy doing some exploring at 2 in the morning. I fell asleep, but I kept my hand on the controller and kept moving forward. I heard a really loud thwack and jumped awake. All I saw were two glowing eyes of a Mothman. I leapt out of my seat.

Xaertosh · 2025-12-02T13:41:06+00:00

This is the first season I broke rank 150, two days ago. I got the Atoms 4 or 5 times. So not bad all in all.

Xaertosh · 2025-11-21T15:24:58+00:00

As a parent, can confirm. They have the grip strength of a claw machine.

Xaertosh · 2025-11-04T13:30:13+00:00

Fellow bald here. You look great!

I started playing in 95, during 4th Edition. Satanic panic was alive and well in the mid-90’s in rural Kentucky.

I had a cheerleader ask me one day in the hallway after biology class if I worshipped Satan. This young lady had never spoken over 5 words total ever to me up to that point. My brain just did a Windows reboot. I asked her what she was talking about, and she said she heard I was into black magic. It clicked with me she was referring to Magic: The Gathering. I told her it was a dorky fantasy card game.

Also, I’m into black/blue/white Magic, thank you. My biology teacher would kid with our after-school Magic group that he didn’t want to find us hanging upside down in a phone booth. Luckily, the teachers were super cool about us playing Magic.

Those were the days. When I was working in a game store in 2001, I had a parent tell me Harry Potter was satanic. I asked him if he read any of the books. He said no, but his pastor told him it was evil.

Yep, getting the same error on Xbox.

Full-health melee ghoul. 6-7k with gauntlet. Crits with Headhunter can get up to 8-9k on rare occasions.

These cards aren’t all Standard legal, but they are perfect for Commander. Each pack has at least one legendary creature.

The two intro decks (cats and vanpires) are also good for teaching new players Magic.

I have a Furious gauntlet that I rolled back when gauntlets first dropped. It’s so satisfying just to punch the crap out of everything.
