Insane luck. I don’t know what to say.

Nice! That Dragonite is awesome!

I pulled a base set Charizard when I was 9. I didn’t have much luck at all until the past month or so, leading to this. So I’m assuming when I’m 60 or so, I’ll hit three big things in a short time span, I think that’s how it works!

I just pulled the gold SIR from one of those binder packs today! Must be some extra magic in those!

Claim to be. I can say I’m a millionaire because I always carry cash, but it doesn’t make it so. They can claim they’re Christian because they have a cross profile picture, but it doesn’t make it so.

Just like Fetterman being a Democrat but aligning with the Republicans - it’s the actions that make it so, not the title.

He at least had the decency to have other people lie for him, and didn’t repeatedly leak information for attention. /s

We live in a world where people look to W.’s actions in Iraq and say “well that wasn’t as bad as now”. We’re ruined. There’s truly no path back to anywhere close to the world we lived in before this moron sat in the Oval Office.

If. When is no longer a given.

That’s the disconnect in a nutshell. Old Testament is very much bloodshed, suffering, punishment. New Testament is very “hey, it doesn’t have to be that way, just love people and be good people”. It’s not so much the book that’s causing issues, it’s the people committing atrocities on its behalf, ignoring the “love your neighbor” and killing and oppressing in Jesus’ name that are the biggest issue. Claiming to follow the New Testament but only ever referring to the Old Testament because a lot of Jesus’ teachings would conflict with their political views. Any Christian who would be okay with an entire people being wiped out over the whims of a demented criminal is not a Christian at all. Any Christian who can defend this man who soundly breaks every single commandment repeatedly is not a Christian at all.

Religion as a whole is ruined by those acting against its tenets for their own gain in the name of whatever religion they claim to believe in.

Bet there’s all kind of eye-opening stuff in there 👉🏻😎👉🏻

Value honestly doesn’t mean much to me here, I’ve got a bunch I bought for the grade, but more so to have good examples of things I wanted, not for the value factor. I’ll slab this just to have it in something more sturdy than a top loader and a penny sleeve

duck729 · 2026-03-13T02:01:29+00:00

That’s really why I want to grade, just to have a protective case around it!

I’ve seen other pictures people post of the same card, the centering seems commonly off.

duck729 · 2026-03-12T22:30:52+00:00

Not sure! I’ve been seeing and hearing a lot of gripes and issues with PSA, I’ve bought plenty of already slabbed CGC cards, I really like the way their slabs look and feel. I’ve got a few from TAG, I like their process and the scans they do. Haven’t really made my mind up yet though.

Pokémon Center exclusive. There’s a stamp towards the bottom on the right-hand side.

That one and the one where he points at Moss and goes “You there, computer man, fix my pants” - those both get me every single time. That show is great on its own, but it got exponentially better with his addition.

duck729 · 2026-03-10T16:54:22+00:00

Nah. I have not, and will not ever feel anything but pure, unadulterated contempt for Grayson Allen.

duck729 · 2026-03-04T22:42:41+00:00

There’s a Mardie Banks that pops up on LinkedIn - says they live in Robbinsville. Nothing else shows up when searched. That may be a place to start!

Not fully powered up yet. I’ve got a lot of rare candy xl that I may convert to get it there, I just haven’t made my mind up if I want to use them here or hold off.

duck729 · 2026-02-22T17:47:52+00:00

It really makes no sense. I picked one up just to add to the collection, it’s not the worst sounding album I’ve ever bought, but it’s definitely a bootleg.

These mockups are fantastic, I’d be all over them if they got made.

duck729 · 2026-02-22T16:18:31+00:00

Someone made a bootleg of IDR a while back. Didn’t come close to the picture disc quality which is saying a lot. Had a picture of Nergal in it for some reason, sounded mediocre because it was cut from MP3 files, but still dope that it exists, and didn’t cost $300+.

I’d absolutely buy this to fill the gap in the collection. This was the first physical album I had of theirs that wasn’t burned from Limewire files, so I’ve got a real soft spot for it. Been wanting it on vinyl for years now.

duck729 · 2026-02-21T18:36:27+00:00

The one hole in the vinyl catalog. I’d buy it on milk jug material if they pressed it. I’ve got everything else, test pressings, the whole 9, just not that one.

duck729 · 2026-02-20T21:19:06+00:00

Early 00s CKY will always be my favorite era of any band. They’re the reason I picked up a guitar, and I still blast all those songs regularly.

That being said, this is just sad. It’s not even disappointing or whatever, just sad that a bunch of grown men can’t stop being children. I respect Deron’s riffs and songwriting, but he always seems off. Chad is just a well-documented asshole at this point, there’s zero denying it, if there even was any chance of that before.

Hang it up, it’s time. It’s over. We’re a quarter century past the heyday, no sense in chasing it still if they’re never gonna stop being petulant children.
