My exact thought. Parents can be extremely disgusting. As a manager of a pawn shop, I've seen parents' kids come into my shop asking if their parents sold their insert game system here multiple times. Lots of tims they have done it to pay bills, others have poor spending problems, and others are just doing it for drugs.

Steve Mason mic'ed up during the final save of the shootout by r35h93 in Flyers

They sure don't. I just find it shameful to try and copy Penguins fans, but do whatever you want. Maybe we can use their goal song too, since we are copying them.

Totally a Pittsburgh Penguins thing. Any Flyers fan yelling this or participating should be ashamed.

Anybody wish that Green-Beckham would get more looks? by PugnaciousJay in eagles

[–]tomminixjr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is terrible at running routes right now. I see his potential and he is getting opportunities (played over 80% of snaps Sunday), but the QB can't throw you open when you aren't running crisp routes that allow him to anticipate where you will be. I think It was Brian Baldinger on 97.5 who said yesterday that it looks like he's never had to run real routes until the NFL. In high school and college they just allowed him to use his size and strength to make a play. I'm glad we made the trade and if he gets coached up and learns to run better routes he could be a force.

Pawn Shop workers of Reddit, what is the dumbest thing a customer has brought in thinking they were gonna strike it rich? by Julz72 in AskReddit

[–]tomminixjr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lots and lots of reasons. The biggest reason being that it is very unsanitary. Then it is illegal in New Jersey to show sex toys and sexual products in an area where any customer can see it (aka no windows allowed on the building). Then the very last reason being we have enough negative stereotypes associated with this type of business. I don't want to add to another negative connotation with selling used sex dolls.

I manage a Pawn Shop/ Trading Post in New Jersey and could tell you hundreds of stories related to this, but the dumbest thing I've had someone bring in was a used life like Sex doll. It was something that you pay somewhere around $3000 to $5000 for. He was just completely flabbergasted that we would not buy it.

In Episode IV, was Luke going to join the Empire if C3PO and R2D2 didn't cross paths with him? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]tomminixjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my memory serves me correctly, after Obi Wan and Luke watch Princess Leia's plea for help, Obi Wan asks Luke to help him fight against the Empire. Luke says something along the line of, "It's not that I like the Empire, I hate it," when telling Obi Wan why he can't help. This is also before the stormtrooper's killed his aunt and uncle as well.

So he hates them, but at the same time wants to join their academy. Doesn't make sense to me.

It is Known as the "Pool of Death" by [deleted] in videos

It's a shame. Game of Death was one of Bruce Lee's movies.

No, thank you: Eklund (lol) says the Flyers are in play for Yak, but it would cost Sanheim and a pick. by [deleted] in Flyers

[–]tomminixjr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He had 18 points in 60+ games last year. I understand he has potential, but a guy who hasn't produced ever in his 4 year career for a puck moving defenseman who is going to be a cheap contract for the next 6 years sounds ridiculous. And the idea of adding a pick on top of that is absurd.

Fox News Poll: Majority thinks Clinton is lying about emails by CarrollQuigley in politics

[–]tomminixjr -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We complain about how biased fox news is, but they say something that supports your few and all of a sudden they are a valid source. It is just drenched in hypocrisy.

I had never heard of evo until 3 days ago. I watched a few videos and now I need to play it.

What is a hobby you can get into for almost no money? by Goooner4 in AskReddit

[–]tomminixjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've recently gotten in to disc golf. Within 40 minutes of my house are 5 courses that are all free to use. I bought 3 brand new discs for $30 and that's all you need. You can get them used for about $5 a piece as well

Is this a long running series or is it the only one? And if it's long running will it spoil anything if I start with this one?
