  • One more on this set -- completely ignoring the James Silas variation -- one is spelled JAMS in purple and the corrected is JAMES in black. Ugh...



    They have 'invisible' logo variations in '69 Baseball but a name spelled differently and printed in different colors is somehow the same card. Utterly ridiculous.
  • When the car a few ahead of you in the turning lane doesn't see the two cars in front turn on green and just sits there. While we watch the light turn to yellow. Then they wake up and make it thru. So we sit for another traffic light cycle. No consideration.
  • Cars that cut you off when there's room for multiple cars behind you, cars in turn lanes who drive wide on the lines so you have to move over
  • Females that talk-

    Can't you just smile and look pretty?
    I'm a big Nolan Ryan fan OK???!!!
  • PSA apologists...
  • "I have $x into it, so I need $x + $y"



    The actual market value of the card is of course irrelevant. The fact that someone was silly enough to pay $x doesn't mean someone else will pay $x + $y.
  • Again, the person sitting at a green light reading their texts or talking to the passenger.

    Too much work, and not enough time for the hobby.



    Facebook, and other social media, being overrun with political propaganda.



    Compulsive BS'ers



    Someone who has the potential to do great things, but is too lazy and unmotivated to make a change when he makes it well known that he is unhappy.



    How "easily offended" America has become.



    Reality TV. A few shows on the History Channel are ok, but could we just go back to real TV please?



    Always getting heat for being a Yankee fan. #1, it's JUST a game, #2, we are not as good as we used to be, #3, yes I was a fan before the Joe Torre era..not a big deal, no we don't have to win the World Series every year.



    People who play on their phones all day for no reason.





    Good enough, Merry Christmas fellas.

  • EstilEstil Posts: 7,082 ✭✭✭✭
    Way too many "reality" shows on TV and they don't even live up to the genre's name, especially Jersey Shore which not only showed blatant stereotypes of New Jerseyians, but no one in the main cast was even from NJ!!



    And on one of my wife's favorite shows, House Hunters, everybody on that show must have stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, finished basements, be in the center of town (but then complain about too much traffic noise!), must be able to "entertain guests", and it's always one wants move in ready and one is open to a fixer upper...sheesh you could make a drinking game out of that show (if I did drink that is). Let's just say if you've seen one House Hunters episode you've pretty much seen them all. image

  • There are 5 people here that REALLY annoy who are completely oblivious to it being them that do.



  • People who's only posts are to criticize others. Way to contribute.
  • Don't know which of the three threads left me more speechless or peeved.



    1. The 1952 rack pack thread and the OP's treatment.

    2. Sabrgeeks Secret Santa to 1980s. The condition of the cards.

    3. Dialj 1990 Donruss Learning Series cards condition in his avoid Negative feedback thread.



    Wow on how people treat each other. Especially in these times.
  • People who sell graded cards on the BST, and also offer raw cards from the same sets that are "near mint" or "mint". If they truly were that good, you would have graded them! Am I right, people?

    24 hours of "A Christmas Story" on TBS/TNT...it's a good movie, but how many times can you watch Scott Farkus and Grover Gill get there butts whiped by Ralphie after he finally had enough? There are other good movies that are worthy of being in that 24 hour timeframe as well..

    The movie is great, but it just never stops playing over the holidays. Every time I turn the channel Buddy is going down with the Christmas tree. The frequency is quickly approaching Good Fellas and Predator levels.

    The alts comment wasn't directed at you.



    On to the other thing, I thought it was funny. Maybe you disagree. I just thought it was funny to say you hate when people criticize and then to criticize a list of people. Sorry you don't see the amusing aspect of that.



    Funny you call me "sheriff". There are a lot of people on here (including you) who have been playing that role yesterday and today about 52 rack packs, secret Santa, and a bunch of other things. If you take the time to read those threads, you'll see I'm not a part of them, making me one of the only members NOT playing sheriff.
