People that need to be tarred and feathered.

Normally I try to be even keel but this my second rant in two days. The first one was on people overbidding on sets that you are after and basically that is my problem. That was a whine.

This one annoys me. People that don't remove cards from registry's. You send them an email, PSA sends them an email and now i have to waste 15 minutes scanning/emailing cards to prove I own them.

I feel better, now time to scan.

    I like the tarring, but not really sure what the point of feathering is. I'd rather just have a 2nd round of tarring. Can't have enough tarring.

    i agree that tarring should be the primary focus, however, the feathering is like an extra bonus just to add more humiliation..

    All this talk reminded me of this for some reason (sorry for the long read):

    Frankie: What's the matter?

    Willie: Eh, my shoulder hurts. You know - you know that narrow hallway in the boiler room? The one with the, uh--?

    Frankie: Exposed bolts comin' out o' the wall?

    Willie: Yeah. Well, every time I walk past it, the bolts dig right into my shoulder. I-- It's very painful.

    Frankie: Boy. You wanna talk about some pain? I bought one o' them linoleum knives the other day, you know?

    Willie: With the double edge?

    Frankie: Right.

    Willie: Yeah?

    Frankie: So, I go home, you know, and I spread my toes apart and I just start sawing, back and forth and back and forth, you know?

    Willie: Mm hmm.

    Frankie: And I take a little thing o' Tobasco sauce, you know?

    Willie: Yeah.

    Frankie: And just dump it on there. Talk about a hotfoot, mister! Boy, that was rough.

    Willie: Yeah, I know what you mean. You know, the other day, I took one o' them, uh--?

    Frankie: Meat thermometers?

    Willie: Yeah! And I just shoved it into my ear, you know? As far as it could go, you know? But then I took one o' them, uh--?

    Frankie: Ball-peen hammers?

    Willie: Right. And just whacked it a few times right in there, you know.

    Frankie: Boy, that must smart.

    Willie: I know! I HATE when THAT happens.

    Frankie: You know what I hate?

    Willie: What?

    Frankie: I go into the kitchen, I open the drawer, you know?

    Willie: Uh huh?

    Frankie: And I take out a, uh--

    Willie: Carrot scraper?

    Frankie: Right. And I stick it up my nose, you know, and I'm rootin' it around, and, you know, gettin' all the mucus membranes out o' there, you know? And then I take one o' them, uh--?

    Willie: Mentholated eucalyptus cough drops?

    Frankie: Right. And I stick it-- wedge it up there, you know? I take a couple o' whiffs, boy. Heh, ya feel like your head's gonna explode.

    Willie: Boy, isn't THAT the truth? It's like the other night. I'm in the attic and I got a bunch o' mousetraps, ya know?

    Frankie: Right.

    Willie: And, for bait, I used a big piece of, uh--

    Frankie: Camembert?

    Willie: Right. So, so I set the trap, right? A-a-a-a-and I wanna see if the trap was gonna work, right? So I got the Camembert in there.

    Frankie: Right.

    Willie: But every time I went to taste the cheese, the thing came down right on my tongue! ... I'm tellin' ya -- after forty, fifty times, I - I - I couldn't even feel the cheese, much less taste it. I hate when THAT happens, I'll tell ya that.

    Frankie: Boy, you know what I hate? I hate-- I got a gross o' them, uh--?

    Willie: Razor blades?

    Frankie: No.

    Willie: Fish hooks?

    Frankie: No.

    Willie: Ah?

    Frankie: Thumb tacks.

    Willie: Ah! Yeah.

    Frankie: Right?

    Willie: Yeah.

    Frankie: So I bring 'em home, you know, and I sprinkle 'em all out over the floor, you know?

    Willie: Points up?

    Frankie: Right.

    Willie: Uh huh.

    Frankie: Then I strip down to the nude and I just ROLL back and forth across the room, ya know? Stickin' in all over my body. Then I jump in a hot tub and just soak.

    Willie: Mm hmm.

    Frankie: Hate that.

    Willie: Sounds very painful.

    Frankie: Very painful.

    Willie: [heavy sigh] Boy. So what're ya gonna do now?

    Frankie: Eh, I'm gonna check fifteen.

    Willie: Yeah. I'm gonna check nine.

    Frankie: Okay.

    [They head back up the hall, testing doorknobs as they go. Finally, they pause to give each other a friendly pat on the shoulder.]

    Frankie: Good night, Willie!

    Boy you have had a bad week!!

    thanks stingray since my name is frank the old billy crystal SNL skit brings back memories.

    you do have to put things in perspective:
    1) i owe my bookie more than i make in a year.
    2) my daughter wants to drop out of school and take up a career in pole dancing.
    3) my wife seems to have to work a lot of overtime and gets calls at all hours of the night from "friends"
    4) a male co-worker of mine keeps wanting for he and i to sponge bath each other.

    but none of this matters if i cannot get my sets registered. i have to improve my ranking!

    i do not remove cards until i receive an email from psa. i usually don't even think about it until then.


    Thanks,

    Id rather go with stoning rather than tarring and freathering. There is nothing like throwing a hard object at a person.

    I'd like to think that we could incorporate fire or a flamethrower in some way.

    Just a hope.

    I like where joestalin is going with stoning. My vote is to replace feathering with stoning so you have "tarring and stoning". It will be very hard to dodge the stones while covered in tar.
