  - glad to hear it. -- nm - mud Jan 21, 15:44
  - I genuinely used to like him. I found the show interesting. I think the trump era messed with his wiring. It’s just not the same. -- nm - Volnelk Jan 21, 15:41 1
    - he's had bad wiring since at least 09/11/01 -- nm - mud Jan 21, 15:43

- Nobody seems to pick the jags -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 21, 13:26 1

Sealed, graded copy of Pokemon Yellow worth $10k opened by US Customs. -- (link) - Mop Jan 21, 09:29 16
- Some people just want to watch the world burn -- nm - budice Jan 21, 09:52
- It's stupid that this can be worth $10k. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 09:40 14
  - There's some Pokémon stuff that is valued at six digits. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 09:44 13
    - You should get a job at US Customs. Personal opinion aside, people are willing to pay that much, and it’s been destroyed. - Mop Jan 21, 09:49 12
      - I didn't say it was justified to destroy it (it's not), but that it's stupid for this to have that value. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 09:53 10
        
        At least it exists in the physical realm and has unique value -- nm - rollo Jan 21, 09:56 9
        
        Yes on the first, ...does it? on the second. - Reagen Jan 21, 10:01 8
        
        It depends on how rare it is. No one would buy it for $10k to use it for its intended purpose, but it is possible in its rarity it has transcended. -- nm - rollo Jan 21, 13:10
        
        Some of the rarest items were free giveaway cards at Pokémon gatherings in the 1990s -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 10:03 6
        
        you think I am talking about it being a Pokemon item but I am talking about it being a video game cartridge. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 10:08 5
        
        Yes, in fact I didn't realize that at all. But ... it is both. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 10:21 4
        
        So let's be clear: video game cartridge (of any fashion) >= $10K ... nuts. Cuckoo banana town. Symptom of a broken set of priorities. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 10:24 3
        
        It's not worth 10K to me, no. But if I were eccentric and building a collection that showed the packaging and presentation of an era, missing pieces - Beryllium Jan 21, 10:36 2
        
        and I circle back to "that is dumb at that value" -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 10:38 1
        
        Well, it's an unfortunate reality that humans are dumb. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 10:44
      - Ugh. Not you. The other guy. -- nm - Mop Jan 21, 09:49
and now it is sad nap time. That was depressing but hey at least it was on USA - JD Jan 21, 09:17 1

- And washing it down with a Red Bull doesn’t hurt -- nm - Dano Jan 21, 09:07 1
  - LFG! *Beating 500 times/min* -- nm - Dano's heart Jan 21, 09:10
- huh. you don't have a crash afterward? -- nm - prayformojo Jan 21, 09:07 1
  - Well for a 10K for example I’m really just concerned about getting through an hour or so. - Dano Jan 21, 09:17

#15 was Steve Yzerman and #14 is Guy Lafleur. -- nm - crash davis Jan 21, 08:10 3
- Evidently Guy Lafleur released an album of hockey instructions set to disco music -- (link) - crash davis Jan 21, 08:18 [youtube] 2
  - Guy would have smoked on the ice if they'd let him. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 08:23 1

Per Bloomberg tequila is going to pass which alcohol as the most-purchased spirit by value in the US? -- nm* - spamlet Jan 21, 06:46 10
- Bloomberg must be getting paid for these. They ran the same article on Mezcal this fall (which was insane) -- nm - MDH Jan 21, 07:19 1
  - It’s the weekend so they probably just rerun stuff -- nm - spamlet Jan 21, 09:04

  - Yup. That surprised me. Here’s the article -- (link) - spamlet Jan 21, 06:59
  - And I question Bloomberg if they are saying tequila. -- (link) - Will Hunting Jan 21, 06:53 2
    - Can’t see the chart either but is that volume? Bloomberg’s is by value. -- nm - spamlet Jan 21, 07:00
    - Can't see the chart. -- nm - Krusty Jan 21, 06:55
- I'll guess rum. -- nm - zunk takes things literally Jan 21, 06:47

  - Because Melissa George has been on my laminated list since forever, misspelling her name is simply unforgiveable. - crash davis Jan 21, 08:01
- I mean, it must be true and obviously entered by him, if it's on his Wikipedia page. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 21, 07:04 16
  - It’s (purportedly) from his user profile, not his Wikipedia page. -- nm* - Znufrii, exceeds expectations Jan 21, 07:08 15
    - He's a pathological liar trying to lie his way to fame - Reagen Jan 21, 07:33 14
      - Yes, he does seem to be getting a lot of attention. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 21, 08:53 10
        
        Maybe the Republican Party should stop elevating self-serving grifters to positions of power, then we wouldn’t have to. -- nm - Znufrii, exceeds expectations Jan 21, 10:15 3
        
        Maybe NY should have vetted him better? -- nm - Strongbad Jan 21, 12:47 2
        
        The NY GOP definitely should have before they decided to let him run on their ticket, yeah. -- nm - Znufrii, exceeds expectations Jan 21, 13:14 1
        
        The fact that people like him and Herschel Walker actually survived vetting and won nominations - Strongbad Jan 21, 13:19
        
        we should definitely ignore the person who grifted and lied about his identity to get into Congress, yes. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 09:24 5
        
        Yes, because there's absolutely nothing in the middle of ignoring someone and the attention he's gotten since winning. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 21, 09:28 4
        
        well speak plainly then, sir, by which we might ascertain your true and full opinion on this. - Reagen Jan 21, 09:39 3
        
        This is why we have Ethics Committees and investigations - Strongbad Jan 21, 13:09 2
        
        You mean the one that McCarthy just gutted? -- nm - Znufrii, exceeds expectations Jan 21, 13:12 1
        
        IMO, that is temporary. - Strongbad Jan 21, 13:17
      - There’s nothing in the constitution that says a shamelessly self-promoting grifter and serial fabulist can’t be elected to congress. -- (edited) - Znufrii, exceeds expectations Jan 21, 07:37 2
        
        seems to be a plus, tbh. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 07:38 1
        
        the 2024 RNC will be a hoot. (Milwaukee - don't be there!) -- nm - mud Jan 21, 07:48
