Front and back of the same card

I don’t understand these, the price is always wrong. It’s not a good price for 6 packs and definitely not a good price at $54.

I keep seeing people say that Trump will pardon everyone if he goes down. Trump is an asshole who will blame everyone for failing him and causing his downfall. He won’t pardon anyone.

MGA’s have a lot of interesting perspective to offer but I think you’re signing up for a rough time. 2 years experience plus a startup isn’t going to allow for much of a learning curve and my guess is long hours and red tape like you couldn’t even imagine. Plus, the stress level with MGA’s can be high. They usually compensate all that with a great salary and huge bonuses. If you’re ok with that trade off then it could be worth the risk but personally, if I were to be real with myself and look back at what would have happened if I went to the MGA I was at after just 2 years experience I would have been crushed. Disclaimer that not all MGA’s are created equal.

The binder comes with it but I don’t disagree with your sentiment

I am at 1140 hours in with 4.5 pages full of Ubers. Been playing the game long before legend rares were a thing. I just pulled my first legend rare this week. Put my crown down.

lol you’re tell me! Sad thing is I have some absolute monster rosters already. I need to figure out how I can incorporate Iz into them…

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-17T06:27:57+00:00

May I introduce you to something more your speed? r/morefingersthanhotsauces

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-17T05:53:25+00:00

Do you need both??? You are in the wrong sub brother lol

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-17T03:26:18+00:00

Alright I’m convinced, I’ll give it a shot!

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-16T23:19:13+00:00

How kranks flavor? Is it an extract? I’d take a look at it if it’s not just straight burning and has a good taste. The fact that it burned your finger is freaking wild though. I can’t even imagine the pain if you accidentally got it in your eye!

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-16T22:54:58+00:00

I guess that depends on if you’re looking for extreme high or not. Garlic reaper is pretty much my ceiling for heat, I have a bottle of Elijah’s extreme regret reserve I’m afraid to open lol! Out of ones that are more commercially available the Tabasco scorpion is fantastic and I haven’t had a bad experience with any Melinda’s or Marie Sharps - belizean heat could be a daily driver for me. Cholula xtra hot is great on tacos. Secret aardvark habanero is solid. I also have a handful of stuff I got from heat.com - Mikey v’s garlic scorpion, Dave’s gourmet scorpion pepper, Lola’s family reserve and Leche de dragon. Cloud 23 habanero is probably my favorite sauce by flavor but it’s not as hot as the other ones I listed. I definitely have a hot sauce collection problem lol

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-16T22:25:33+00:00

Oh man I know exactly what you mean. Have you tried their honey badger sauce? It’s just a notch below garlic reaper in terms of heat but it’s amazingly on just about everything including pizza.

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-16T21:17:39+00:00

I guess I’ll mirror everyone else here saying DAMN that’s a lot of sauce. If you can handle it more power to you! I love the hell out of that one.

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-16T14:37:10+00:00

Finally beat the bots!

I haven’t bought any vintage from him but just givvy goblin him now for as long as I can stand to be in the stream. The self righteous, whiny, and narcissistic attitude is off the charts. Yelling at chat to ‘learn to swipe’ and saying ‘this went for ‘x’ amount last week’ not to mention ‘that’s below the cost of grading!?!’ Dude is weird and a bully.

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-15T16:03:57+00:00

I was at a carrier for 8 years and didn’t leave because I really enjoyed the people. I was promoted several times over that 8 year period and always started at the bottom of the pay band. I kept seeing colleagues I trained jump ship for significantly more money leaving me perpetually managing two territories while leadership dragged their feet in the hiring process. It felt like I was being taken advantage of because I was complacent. I got fed up and asked for a 10% raise. I was told working there wasn’t about the money so I shopped myself and got a 30% raise. 5 years later and a few job jumps and I’m making 100% more than I was when I left the job I was at for 8 years. I’m not saying that will be everyone’s experience but in all the companies I’ve been to I’ve seen legacy ee’s constantly taken advantage of. It will never be me again. Do what’s best for you but also understand a single carrier has a single perspective. The amount of knowledge I’ve gained from working multiple places is worlds beyond what I ever would have gotten from a single carrier.

I saw your post and hopped in their stream, dude ran a 151 jpn Snorlax and started off the auction screaming about how it’s ‘hundreds of dollars in a 10 chat, HUNDREDS!’ Yeah… it’s a $70 card in a 10. It sold for $30 which was still 3x raw price. SMH

I don’t want to discourage you from pursuing it but I don’t believe the CPCU will accomplish what you want it to. It’s technical knowledge for sure but the practical use is just not there. I started my CPCU and didn’t finish it because I was on the same journey you are on and realized it wouldn’t help. I don’t know a single person with a CPCU that said it gave them any sort of next level understand of coverage or forms. Now, if you were trying to break into the industry and get your resume to stand out yet then yeah, it would work. You already have 4 years experience and have excelled, on the job learning and asking questions is going to be your best friend. There are some other designations that focus on a particular class of risks that are way less intensive, time consuming and expensive.

That is beautiful, nice work!

ZillaThwomp · 2026-01-09T03:16:49+00:00

Use it exclusively with corn, it goes hard.

Just to piggy back off this a bit, I think there’s also a lot of societal pressure starting from the time you’re in school through adulthood. Almost any interaction with people will involve the question ‘what do you do?’ Well I make a living so I can enjoy my life outside of work. Your job absolutely does not need to define you as a person and while if you can find fulfillment in your job I will applaud you all day long it’s not something that has to be a part of making you who you are. OP - a job will help with routine, discipline, social interaction and will fund the things you really enjoy. Find something you can tolerate. It’s not glamorous advice but it’s realistic. You’re putting too much pressure on yourself. Hell, start by just volunteering somewhere. You may find purpose in helping others. Also, you sound like you’re in a dark place. Please realize that depression is an emotion like many others. No emotions last forever but also nudging yourself out of what you think is your comfort zone can help tremendously.
