    Quoted from CrazyLevi:

    I’m SO SICK of people using “the media” as a punching bag when they are among the few who have been doing their jobs during this crisis.
    The media are absolute heroes in all this - we’ve gotten nothing but lies and incompetence from the people in charge, and the without the media the virus would still be “a hoax” officially.
    This isn’t the media’s fault, and without the media we’d be completely screwed. We can thank the media for the changes in public policy, which of course have come way too late.
    The media fucking rules. People should be a little more appreciative for what they’ve done for us over the past several months.
    As far as the rest of your stuff delt - yeah, I agree. We could all use some good news and happy thoughts. That doesn’t mean we need to pretend everything is normal; that’s just not an appropriate or responsible response.
    Launching a pinball machine right now would be disastrous on so many levels. I know
    Deep Root is in huge trouble the longer they delay, but I simply cannot imagine they are gonna do their launch in two weeks.

    Fake news media BLOWS. It's not normal but overblown HYPE and PANIC isn't good either.

    Yeah, the media is disgusting and vile and does NOTHING to help the situation, nor can they.

    LOL, now go back to your bunker Levi until its over in 30-60 days.

    The public-private partnership announced yesterday was what was needed! Let's give credit to the media for putting that on television and reporting it.

    You crack me up Levi.

    Quoted from CrazyLevi:

    Lol iceman.
    Loyal soldier to the end!

    That's your problem Levi, there is "no end" here despite the doomsday predictions! LOL

    Watch it happen, normal people will get sick and tired of the hype and panic soon enough. Peak panic was hit last week.

    Everybody needs to calm the F down, take a math class, and educate yourselves about the actual FACTUAL numbers and what they mean to you.

    The "supply chains" are back to work in China. While Apple closed its doors like all the other penguins jumping into the water until March 27th, 100% or ALL of its China stores are OPEN FOR BUSINESS.

    I think you need to stock up on some extra toilet paper Levi, lots of BS coming out brother!!!

    Here is some other great news for you, the one thing the FAKE NEWS media can't do is actually make up and lie about the number of deaths.

    51 in the US out of 2340 reported cases thus far. 37 come from the State of Washington, 19 from the nursing home. FACTS, FACTS, FACTS

    80-85% of people that contract the virus don't need any medical attention and get over it. FACTS, FACTS

    My parents are 81, they need to be concerned and i am for them. FACT

    Meanwhile, stoking fear and panic and running around like a chicken with his head cut off is nuts.

    BREAKING NEWS!!! Reporters have to get their temperature taken prior to the upcoming White house briefing.

    And wouldn't you know it, one reporter had a FEVER. OMG, panic time, take the President down to the bunker.

    Shut it down folks!!!! This should be funny, reporters talking about themselves all day in panic mode

    Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

    Proving now is NOT the time to reveal your new pin.

    Why? Levi isn't gonna buy a NIB pin

    Who cares when they announce a game or not. Maybe we should wait until March 27th when Apple reopens its stores, that should be the all clear for everybody!

    AP needs to rebottle the Hot Wheels announcement. Wtf were they thinking!!!

    Let me give some of you panic purveyors some perspective.

    30-60 day short term hit to the economy. Use some common sense if you have any and look back to prior such events and how the world and US actually survived.

    This might be over some heads here but the bottom line is that the 3rd and 4th quarter GDP will rebound and be massive because why?

    1). Federal reserve policy is a major positive. "Don't fight the Fed" as they say and rates will get cut again

    2). Tax policy still a big positive due to the prior tax cuts and more money in people's pockets and small businesses.

    3). Trade policy is as good as it gets with new deals with China, Mexico and Canada with India on the way.

    4). Deregulatory policy is in full force, FDA and CDC barriers being lifted and old guidelines being changed rapidly.

    5). Fiscal policy just landed with the President enacting the Stafford Act and access to 50 Billion along with a new bill from Congress getting signed on Monday.

    These are always the 5 pillars of our economy.

    Airlines and Travel industry will and have suffered a short term major hit. All that changes in 30-60 days.

    The last 1/2 of the year will be a continuation of the massive growth we were experiencing because of the above.

    UNLESS, somehow the virus magically morphs into killing millions of people. Place your bets accordingly and on FACTS

    Finally, please do you job FAKE NEWS hype and panic media.

    CHINA cases are on a major decline, the country is going back to work, all Apple stores are OPEN. FACTS

    Report that, because that is what is coming here soon in the next 30-60 days.

    Common sense should tell you that 1.4 BILLION people in CHINA DID NOT DIE!!!

    And yet only 5400 worldwide deaths.

    Like i said people, take a freaking MATH class, and I know the media needs one

    Quoted from Bublehead:

    I love your enthusiasm. Not sure exactly how it will play out, but the huge sell off in the stock market says otherwise. Roar back? No, it will crawl back but not any time soon. The sunk costs of this will be a negative thumb on the scale for at least a year, if not longer. Ask your investor friends what they are doing right now. Then report back. Mine told me to hunker down and put my money somewhere safe. Left, right, or middle, that’s not bad advise right now.

    Read the above Bubble or make a "reasoned argument" against it. You can't.

    Since i manage 500 million dollars my "investment friends" aren't panicking and buying thursday and friday.

    Just saying brother. How's that for a report back. And I'll be deploying more $$ on Monday into overblown beaten down stocks.

    "Buy when others are fearful and there is blood in the streets", Warren Buffett

    This is why individual investors on their own underperform by a huge margin because they trade on emotion, fear and greed.

    The idea is BUY LOW and SELL HIGH. Not the other way around. FOMO and fear will kill you

    Quoted from Ericpinballfan:

    What do I get? Did someone say tax breaks? I was about to file with a small refund, but hey, how can I get more?

    You aren’t getting more. You already got it and get it every day That’s a positive UNLESS something changes in Nov and taxes GO UP

    More importantly small businesses like Stern all pin makers got a MAJOR tax rate benefit that continues which leads to more jobs!!!!

    Lowest unemployment rate in history across EVERY race, gender etc. rising wages across all income levels but mostly the lower half. FACTS

    FAKE NEWS agenda driven media won’t report that

    #51 4 years ago
    Quoted from thirdedition:

    It is going to trickle down any day now...

    It’s trickled straight into your paycheck

    Lowest unemployment rate in history and rising wages also trickled right down into your paycheck.

    Lol. At least socialism died

    #81 4 years ago
    Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:

    I think I’ve asked you this before. What are your top 5 fake media sources?

    ALL of them.

    How’s that?

    Stupidity is on full display right now

    Shortly, the toilet paper brigade will get pissed again and it’s blowback

    One word

    China.

    #82 4 years ago

    There are stupid people everywhere and that will never change

    At least the dumbasses will be stocked up on toilet paper and hand sanitizer for years.

    Old people die every day every year

    The media is to blame for the shit show

    Idiots don’t know any better

    It’s quite pathetic

    Then again, you should “never let a a good crisis go to waste”

    (edited)

    #84 4 years ago

    If YOU can’t make it in this economy then it’s time to find another job OR quit

    Stop blaming the system for your own failures

    It’s on YOU

    What happened in 2008 that made your lives so much better

    Not a f ing thing

    So stop whining and get your shit together

    #85 4 years ago
    Quoted from o-din:

    Printing money in desperate times sounds like the right thing to do. What could possibly go wrong?

    You should stop while you are WAY behind Odiner

    Light up another bud and try and open your mind!

    Quoted from o-din:

    It'll probably take one of Ice's close friends or relatives getting really sick from this shit for him to realize what's really going on here.
    I've got a 98 year old mother in a senior care facility, and anything they can do to keep what happened in Washington from happening here are steps that should be taken IMO.

    No shit Spicoli

    My parents are 81. What’s your F ing point

    Maybe you should bring her home to YOUR house and take care of her if you are that concerned

    Lmk when you are on your way

    #88 4 years ago
    Quoted from Ericpinballfan:

    Ice, Ice Baby. Wow, slow down.
    Time to go eat dinner and put the keyboard down.

    Hey I just ate a big pepperoni pizza and meatball!

    So I’m just getting started Eric

    Crazy time is here

    #89 4 years ago

    Seriously, how can there be so many stupid people in this world ?

    I guess that’s why the same politicians control them year after year

    It’s amazing how the middle class want to go backwards to a time that didn’t work and was terrible for them

    Lowest unemployment rate in history and rising wages across EVERY measure possible

    The media wants the power and control along with the politicians and it will always be that way because of the down right stupidity of most

    There continues to be a large % of the dumbasses that want to keep F ing themselves!

    #90 4 years ago

    The broken record is the social media and mainstream media BS. It's pathetic and disgraceful.

    Another one bites the dust.
