    What group buy is this?

    and to add.. if you've ever bought a mini-van for the soul purpose of moving games, you might be a pinhead.

    I also told the dealer we bought our Mazda Tribute from that if a pinball game doesn't fit in it, I'm not buying it.. (they fit fine, btw).

    When you start comparing other purchases with Pin prices. e.g. That car is really nice but the price is a bit steep, I can get a MM and a BBB for that price.

    #30 12 years ago

    When your house gets noticeably warmer or colder depending on how many pins you have turned on at once.

    #31 12 years ago

    If you write peoms about pinball...

    Pinball, How I love thee let me count the ways.
    I love you for the time we spend on cloudy rainy days.

    I love you for your lights that glow in shades of blue and red.
    I love you for the time I spend fixing when your dead.

    I love you for the beautiful art that brightens up my home.
    I love you for those times we spend in the basement all alone.

    I love you because you don't get mad when I call you nasty names.
    I love you for not getting jealous when I play with other games.

    I love you because I can slap you around like a $3 whore
    Right before I pack you up and ship you out the door.

    I love you for reminding me of days long long past.
    and slowing down life for me so it doesn't go so fast.

    I love you pinball, you've changed my life
    but now I have to spend it without my beautiful wife.

    +1.
    Well played indeed!
    To wife:
    "Hey, they are still heating the room!"

    When you spend more money on LED's than groceries every month... And when you DO go to the grocery store you put back the frozen pizza, because you wanted a slow color changing "super" 44 instead...
