    Quoted from digitalbytes:

    While catching up with some acquaintances over the holidays I mentioned my recent plunge into the pinball hobby and my purchase of my first pinball machine. One of the people there commented "I have done some stupid things, but nothing that stupid." and I had no response for him. I was dumbfounded by his reaction.
    Anyone else have odd reactions from people finding out you own a pinball machine or have a games room full of them in your basement?

    I would "unfriend" that friend. There's nothing like other people telling YOU how to spend YOUR money. I've been a Mustang guy since 1970 and I still hear about how much money I spend on it and what a "waste" it is. When you ask what these people do for a hobby they say gardening or coin collecting.
