Dude...
Thanks Guys .
Completely tired of the remarks behind the back heard when leaving a room.
Wizard , he paid how much for what?
Not worth it . Im pissed and disappointed at the same time .
I am a really outgoing fun, ok lets party kind of guy and I'm not particularly young.
But fuck it . Not worth the time or effort yo explain to them !!!!
Quoted from hoby1:After that shit..... I would fk um.
Usually do, I give folks one strike .
Thanks Guys,
I will say it's not friends that are saying this stuff. Usually happens at a BBq or a social event where we all dont know each other and we are all just making conversation. I guess I really should only blame myself . It's what I like it's what I'm into and have met great people doing it . So I like to talk about it .
Lesson learned I guess.
Quoted from arcademojo:My question is: Why do you give a rats ass what others say or think. The hobby isn’t for everyone. I get people ask me all the time. I just say I have about 20 to 30 grand in my collection. And it took about 20 years to get there.
I don't . It just got to me the other day . I dont say shit negtive about what other people like or do .
I have learned a lesson .
Quoted from KingBW:LOL, ya … she just had hip replacement surgery last month and the first thing she said to me on the phone was that she hopes that the surgery will allow her to play pinball longer and can't wait to try. Cracked me up. Moments like that makes you feel good about this hobby.
Great story !
Quoted from NimblePin:Truer words have never been spoken.
Example:
My last Jekyll and Hyde round.
Looks about right for most of us.
As soon as you think you got it (out), the tides turn quickly (in). 
Quoted from NimblePin:I think what Golfingdad1 really needs is a trip to the Pinside Pinvitational. Where golf, Pinsiders, beer and Pinball go hand in hand...in hand...in hand.

We just need The Gorilla and some other passionate Pinsiders to make it happen a second time!
Man, has it already been 6 years?!?
I'm in !
Quoted from o-din:I must be in the wrong place then.
No way man, you're leading the parade.
Quoted from NimblePin:Ooh, I have some pants he could borrow!
Much better than cut-off denim.
Borrow...? Are you kidding me !
Me as John Daly on Pin golf tourney
IMG_1185(1) (resized).jpgQuoted from NimblePin:Nah, that’s got a more Guy Fieri vibe going. You need to be waAAAYYyy drunker than that pic leads on and probably four times corpse-ashore-bloated to pull a true JD.
Ya the hair definitely...its what I had.
But I do have the pants
Quoted from o-din:Noted. I figured that one only had a couple hours shelf life anyway.
That's what I wanted to say when this whole thing started but better that I didn't.
I think this thread has run its course
Ironically I ran into a guy tonight that collected high end pens , yes like ball point pens $2k and up kind of stuff, made out of platinum and such and I was very accepting because of this thread. Usually I may have been just like the people that were mumbling behind my back last week .
Quoted from ralphs007:Before I retired,I was one of the Carpenters, who built a Mont Blanc store at the King of Prussia Mall.One of the Carpenters,traveled the country doing Mont Blanc stores.
He also collected their pens.He told me that some of their pens,cost as much as 10,000 dollars. I told him that anyone who spent that much on a pen,should be kicked in the balls,several times ! He laughed,and said,"They really are nice pens".
Exactly...
The least expensive pen was 2k...
Sounds like they may know each other.
My first question was, How often do you have to replace the ink cartridge
His response never in 10 years with the pen i
Was holding ..
My thought apparently it's never been used .
But I dont know jack Sh*t about "pens"
