    Quoted from romulusx:

    You guys on the coast get so bent out of shape about stuff like this,what you should be concerned with is all the debt your state is in and your tent cities ,mostly because your leaders function out of feelings instead of common sense.My state is firmly in the black while your state is consistently in the red.

    Just fyi, Indiana is one of the states most dependent on federal funding whereas coast states fare far better. Lots more data about that out there if you want to research it.

    There isn’t any right or wrong.

    There are a few pompous arses that think so but hey.....

    I’d rather jam a fork through my eye and to the back of my skull before I’d hang out and drink a vegan beer with some of these people

    For the most part I know I’m f ing right. I buy these Nib games

    Quoted from Rarehero:

    So, your priorities are harass women & live in a state that ranks 28th nationwide. Got it.
    It’s been a fun time in the hobby with you, but life’s too short to talk to rapist defenders. You’re going into the bin, you’ll never hear from me again. Byyeeeee!

    Real mature, make fun of the state I live in and call me a rapist defender.What the hell dude you better go
    get some more therapy,your coming unhinged.I was kind of defending some statements Franchi said,I didn't
    realize he was accused of rape!

    If there weren't "right or wrong" the programming on your NIB games wouldn't work.

    Therein lies the beauty of it all, i don't care about WHO is behind making great pinball.

    I know what i know and what i like.

    I'd love to hang out with Franchi and talk pinball, he's from my era. I don't care who he works for.

    My new favorite is Elwin and his crew.

    Lyman is a genius but whoever did JP thus far is killing it as a team!

    The LAST thing i care about it what any of these guys think on a personal level.

    It is wrong to drink so much.

    Why? It's Oktoberfest!

    Well that sucks for you! Heading into Wurstfest down here as well, a great German tradition/celebration. New Braunfels, Texas.

    Quoted from romulusx:

    I agree,I would love to see Franchi working with JJP.The guy is super cool,but the over zealous social warriors want to pigeonhole him as
    macho idiot.If we all don’t agree we will be shamed so watch out

    LOL. YOU start a pinball company (that earns a profit{[you know, that capitalist stuff]) and see if you want that "super cool" person working for you. Play with fire, get burned. Have fun with that. Otherwise you are all talk.

    Quoted from Rarehero:

    Cool Breitbart book report. Absolutely irrelevant to this topic, but parroting far-right media about things you personally know nothing about is a fantastic life skill, keep it up!
    “You guys on the coast” ....lol. Keep on dividing!

    Ive seen it. Dont act like it doesnt exist.

    [quoted image]

    I mean, is it a surprise? Stern told him to stop selling translite art he did for them at shows, and he kept doing it. He's lucky they just cut ties and didn't sue him.

    He's super-talented and I hope these new pinball relationships fare better now that he's older and I hope wiser. CGC will definitely benefit from his art on their machine(s).

    #465 2 years ago

    Talented guy but too much of a loose cannon for Stern. I love his art and he makes me laugh.

    He has a habit of posting stuff like this and then taking it down. He's since removed this post along with the post shitting on the PIAs.

    #466 2 years ago

    I love his art - Beatles is spectacular.

    I've listened to a few of his podcasts and you can tell he is a loose canon. Too bad he couldn't be more professional, but wish him all the best.
