any love for the core?

this is also classic....

Gryszzz are you a fan of sheer terror?

Poison idea is amazing

Catching up on this thread. I think people who seek things out gravitate to hobbies where you are engaged or required to seek things out. What I like about pinball is the search for a part, a game, or the knowledge on how to do something. Or barring any of that, just having the balls to jump in and do it. Plus also engaging with people from all walks of life trying to do the same thing. Not to be all hippie about it, but that is what Unites us.

Hardcore and punk it was the same thing. Grinding though zines and record stores for rare records, starting bands, putting on shows, starting or breaking up fights , meeting new and interesting people. I would love to still be doing it, but the scene and life changes and you age out of going to shows.

Nearing 50 I like seeing the same joy in someone’s eyes playing my game at a show as playing some rare record I scrounged from a newsprint fanzine and got in the mail in the 80s to someone who’s never heard it. Of course, not MXV, he knows everything
