    It's just the way I roll.

    Quoted from teekee:

    But what about the Pinside Motto?

    Oh you mean "do you feel lucky"?

    Oh. I was sure it was-
    "I know a great place for some hot dogs"

    Quoted from bob_e:

    Pre-order is like paying $5K over sticker to buy a new car! No?

    Similar. But from what I have heard you usually end up with the car.

    Quoted from Magic_Mike:

    The OP's Avatar takes me back to countless mornings watching "Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings."
    Thank-you!

    I watched a lot of the captain when I was a kid. I remember one day the carpool lady came to take me to nursery school but the show wasn't over yet so I said wait. She grabbed me by the arm and tried to pull me up off the floor so I turned and bit her arm. She left, I finished the show, and my dad ended up taking me to school. We stopped and got a donut on the way.

    That's the way I roll.

    I just got an eject notice from the last remake thread I visited yesterday. It was in regards to a response I made to somebody that called me an asshat. Apparently that was not enough to get him ejected after he had made several other insults before that. I don't want to be a member of any club that wouldn't have me as a member.

    I don't want to pre-order, don't want any remakes, and don't want to deal with any of that bullshit ever again.

    That's the way I roll.

    Although I did send in money for the first remake, I got it back soon after when I got a lousy feeling in my gut about it. I figured it would be better to wait and see the final product before buying anything.

    Turns out my instincts were right after I sat on the sidelines and watched how uptight many of those that stayed in were and still are and were willing to take whatever they could get, whenever they could get it despite what had been advertised. Any comments that were made about any shortcomings the machine might have were met by the remake army and stifled. I made a few myself and was thrown to the dogs like the others. I am glad that I have resolved myself that I will no longer engage any of them because that is not the way I roll.

    Quoted from mrgone:

    there will be people throwing money at whoever.

    That is their choice to do.

    My daddy told me there were assholes everywhere.

    #32 9 years ago

    He also gave me the idea that if you listened to what those assholes had to say, they would talk you out of buying whatever it was they were selling.

    Sometimes if you really want something, you've got to bite for it.

    After looking over this thread again, it makes me happy that I hadn't wasted another weekend staggering around in a drunken stupor.

    Quoted from pinwiztom:

    With collecting EMs, you have >500 different models to choose from,
    and the only wait is in finding someone willing to let their's go.

    Says the guy with 300. lol.

    Quoted from littlecammi:

    then don't flip-flop your position to pre-order any remakes of the five pins on your wish

    I'm not even counting on them to make a lockdown bar, plastics, or any other parts I need for games I already have. And I'm betting they don't give a shit about any of this any way as long as there are $8000 remakes to be sold.

    Quoted from Gryszzz:

    " Do cheaters annoy you ?"

    Only thing that annoys me is when that bottle of Jack runs empty and I am too hammered to go get more. But I have solved that dilemma by keeping plenty on hand.

    That's the way I roll.

    Quoted from littlecammi:

    I really don't expect them to remake any of the five on your wish list. I just wanted to work "kangaroo court" into my post because of your new Avatar.

    I got it. And I almost forgot I had a wish list. I've got plenty now and pretty much just take what comes my way anymore. Don't need to wish for anything.

    That's the way I roll.

    Quoted from NiftyLED:

    I would like to Preorder your Joker Poker

    You will need to talk to my daughter on that one. She's the one going to be sorting through all this crap after I die.

    Quoted from RonB:

    I agree. I like to buy things that already exist.

    Yeah buddy! I'm feeling better about my decision by the day. Those that argued that the remake was going to have new and improved sound just because that is what they were told are now saying it sounds like crap.

    I don't pre-order and I have no need for remake machines of any kind.
    Start remaking the parts that so many need for machines that already exist, and that might be a bit more productive and a step in the right direction. IMO

    Quoted from calvin12:

    I call out a mod and get in another thread, apparently it's fine here though

    Everything is fine here. Just fine...
