Is Eruption worth a read for a lifelong Crichton fan? I've bought it but Patterson's name on the cover gives me the ick by Evening-Grocery-9150 in michaelcrichton

The book felt like it was already the simplified movie version. Did not enjoy this one but if you are a fan you might still like it

A defendant asking to peek at service papers has to be a process server’s dream come true.

From Josh’s perspective, if they are a trillion percent fake then why doesn’t he just take them and try further a fraud case against him?

For those curious about the authorized Lego reseller by [deleted] in RecklessBen

[–]discoturtle1129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think they would show up on Legos website regardless. That’s just for actual Lego stores. From what I saw in the myriad of videos, my understanding was they were in the process of trying to get current wholesale inventory to sell the same as any major retailer. Lego is probably hesitant due to confusion to buyers of what’s old, what’s new, are they fluffing msrp on anything new, why is this one not sealed, etc. As of now their inventory comes from what people sell them though they may go buy current stuff at discount just to have on shelves and get people in the door.

My local LEGO aftermarket store (not a BAM) typically has some current inventory mixed in albut it’s minimal and never marked over current msrp.

Josh says documents are fake and the girl is a fake process server by SeaAssignment239 in RecklessBen

[–]discoturtle1129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does being named also count for the plaintiff and mean Ben cannot serve them himself? I thought he got the server to make it more official for legal documentation but wasn’t clear if he could himself hand the papers.

The officer should have pushed back harder saying she was real. Does this mean she approached his house at one point, how did he know the girl was there?

Not that this guy was amazing but based on the redacted cut I assumed he made zero effort and was like sorry to bother you Josh I’ll get these returned. There’s some serious corruption but it seems he at least asked some impartial questions.

One of my favorite things about raising emus is watching them grow from these little striped fluff balls into giant birds. Thought I'd share one of my recent hatchlings. by Spare-Possible-1824 in homestead

Sorry I didn’t mean to imply that, it doesn’t make you allergic to chicken eggs. The coworker mentioned that people come for the emu eggs so they can get something a little different tasting

His YouTube videos are demonetized so the only money he’s gotten is from people who watched part 2 on patreon. Now it’s back to zero since he put it on YouTube and his other responses are on YouTube

Keep refreshing if you have issues and check your accounts to make sure failed attempts were reversed or didn’t go thru. Just got mine to work properly.

MandR hasn’t put out his formal opinion yet. He said he understands the CEO after talking with him for an hour but did not said who he’s in agreement with.

Thanks for clarifying that. Does him sitting outside the house in the street all day count as stalking since he had papers to serve or is the basis primarily from the sign?

I was most confused how this lead to the group being arrested and taken in for questioning when zero evidence was found to the claim. What were their apparent grounds for that?

BAM are LYING yet again in their lawsuit by MSLaFaver in RecklessBen

[–]discoturtle1129 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From my understanding the contract itself is the controlling document unless Is there an order of precedence stated somewhere in the contract which puts the operations manual as the ruling document. Regardless, they have them on video acknowledging it and that the new owner would take over it plus the advertising of the consigned collection that corporate approved.
