I confess when I read an exchange about how someone is new to pinball ownership and someone else comments that the number of owned machines will eventually multiply, I snicker to myself, "Do you realize how much these damn things cost now?"

Moderators are not robots..they're actually participating in the threads and don't need to be told when to moderate a post. Seems so simple man.. no one cares about your shitty post. It was lame and exhausted the whole subject.

Meanwhile we've all been ignoring Johnny's health! Hope you're feeling better J !

He's a brave little soldier. He'll battle on.

This is my life...... IBS. it sucks.

If I eat "decent" enough and go the chiropractor on a semi-regular schedule. I run a pretty decent shit ship.

Hahaha! Pinside is great for busting your gut!

Good fun, one letter off on my first go.

Only get six tries!!
Don't want to jinx it, but i'm running a 100% solved rate right now (with a small sample size) - Today I got it in TWO tries, my lowest

I confess ..I have one foot a size larger than the other. I exchanged a larger shoe in the box and didn't tell the cashier

So you are the reason the cashier checks to see if my sizes match!!

I was at the checkout once, I said to her what do you think I would buy shoes in 2 different sizes? She said it happens more often than you would think

They should be happy, now they have another pair of mismatched ones when the next guy walks in.

Somebody poked fun at my socks once and said i'd put the wrongs ones on.
I said if they are wrong then how come i have two pairs the same, Hey?

ThatShutThemUpPunkin

I said if it's that common maybe, shoes should sold in singles? She was mind blown

Special order would cover it surely.

Hahaha!!!!! J C!

What does LGBTQ even mean? I keep asking everyone and can't get a straight answer

Do you have google?

It all gets complicated when people 'identify'.

I just keep the same rule i always have, i don't give a dead rats arse who you root or what you call yourself. So long as you don't hurt anybody it's none of my fucking business.

The whole coming out thing and describing yourself with this or that label is not my thing. It's for the young people.

I don't fuck anyone, but i don't need a label.

The young people used to make me smile ten years ago with the whole 'hug thing'. You hug top half and keep genitals two feet backwards. it looks funny and my Nan or my Aunties would have thought i was weird if i hugged them like that.

Covid fixed that mannerism. No more hugging weird thank fuck.

wait for it

I really regret starting an octopus thread on pinside.

You'll get chucked out of comps.

Looked up how to care for a pet octopus a few weeks ago.

Are you talking about fish? I have had a few octopus. This one had just fought and are a crab. It’s name was Doc. Oc. Still have an active TONMO account.

Me either, not anymore. Especially when you find more meaningful things in life.

Glad I got it all out of my system in my 20s when it was safer. Literally and otherwise.

To add to the above I confess my kids do like to go down the water slide.

Pretty little things are hanging round all the time, but i'd only get em dirty.

It’s kind of funny seeing two mod’s actively participating in the subject after the request to close they’re like….nope we like this.

I’m happy it’s there! Not too many aquarium nerds on here!

Yeah but in fairness..it is gaining harmless traction

All good now, I just ate way too much spicy chili.

For a long time I had the IBS and needed to see a chiropractor.

For the hell of it, for 2 weeks try avoiding any salad or coleslaw, or corn, any kind of nut, and only take gummy vitamins or chewable vitamins. If you have any kind of pill that you take that you can not get in chewable form, get a grinder and grind it into powder to take it.

Confess except for the chili episode, my shit ship has been sailing awesome for a long while now, after having problems most of my life, before I cut out the things I just listed.

Confess I miss salad with a steak, and coleslaw with fried shrimp, corn on the cob, peanut M&M's, and cashews, but I have been feeling too good to even try to ever eat any of that again.

Confess I have another weird health problem that started about 4 months ago.

I have never had any body odor, yeah, I use deodorant, always have, BUT now almost every day my right armpit has odor, and my left one is still fine like always.

It is so bad somedays that when I shower, I can wash it 3 times, with a whole lot of soap, and odor still lingers.

Must be a weird side effect of not eating salad and coleslaw and peanut M&M's anymore is all I can figure.

Hell, I will take a little odor over all the times my stomach used to cramp so bad I felt like I was going to die.

What day? My birthday is June 12th.

Confess at one time I was dating a girl that also was born June 12th (2 years older than me), and I knew a couple other people at the time that were also born June 12th, and I was trying to get a group of us together to go to a restaurant that gave free meals on your birthday, just to see the look on their face when half of the large party was going to be eating for free.

Confess that shit did not work at all, everyone broke up or divorced a month earlier.

Confess I do not believe in or follow any of the zodiac crap, but I do seem to get along with women born in August a lot better than women that are a Gemini like me.

They are all nuts and can be a pain in the ass, but my current girlfriend is very awesome.

Confess I need to check that out sometime.

And never regret anything here, as long as you are having fun!

Pretty much every thread is the same, no matter what the topic is, some people just want to argue all the time, and some people are offended all the time.

Confess that is the main reason I want to check that out, mod's can get pretty entertaining.

I had goldfish when I was a kid, and they were boring as hell. If I was going to do a aquarium it would have to have octopus and maybe sharks and stingrays. Piranha would be awesome also.

As delicious as they are. I try to avoid eating octopus. They're just too damn frikkin smart and amazing! So freaky.. but in a good way.

I confess I have predicted early my last three, count 'em THREE "In before the lock" calls and was downvoted for it......They all got locked.

Every time TheLaw clown downvotes me, don't know why, guess I give no fucks anyway..... But still... I was right. So suck on that.

You know my thoughts, but figured I would share it here. Those members that gave you shit are huge hypocrites if they have pets themselves.

You were looking for advice on how to properly care for a pet, that's obviously generally acceptable to own, as you can buy them legally to have in your tank.

Good job not falling for their bait. You gracefully bowed out, which not a lot of people would have done. That thread will die fast on its own.

Went and had a look. Should have started;

I want to maybe get one of those small humans you see people at the shops with for a pet. One of the ones that come up to your knees.

Does anyone know how much there is to caring for them?

How big a pen do you need for them? (i don't want to breed them, i'll probably only get one)

I see they send them all off for obedience training together somedays, is that very expensive?

Getting the hang, got it in 4 today.

You can have a couple of mine. They practically take care of themselves.

But do they still treat you like King when they want something?

It's so fun to have a dog in the house again. Even if it is just a friends. Basil chose the yellow bird from the basket of Jimi's toys as her favorite. Not kidding, I've been throwing it for a half hour. Might have finally wore her out

Looks like that doge meme.

Original_Doge_meme (resized).jpg

Not sure what she is. Wife thinks cattle dog. She unfortunately was mistreated most of her life. Our friend took her from her dumbass son. She didn't want a dog but has definitely made a huge impact on her. Got her fixed, walks her 4 times a day. Forever home 4sure

I confess I have been in a pretty good mood all day.

1-2 times a week, I buy a $2 lottery ticket, and not one of those with odds so bad that almost impossible to win, although eventually someone does win one of those.

That $2 is money well spent and enjoyed all day, because I have thoughts about who I would like to tell them kiss my ass, and thoughts about buying a vacation place versus just renting a vacation place for a while, and going to more than one place.

I stretch that and get maximum value, because I do not even check the ticket for a few days, so I can still daydream more on the same 2 bucks.

Confess the best I have done with this particular game was a $100 win, and when I noticed I had so many numbers I was excited, I knew this was way better than the $2, $4, or $10 I normally win.

And more often than not, I am lucky with this game and win something.

And after a few days of daydreaming, if the ticket does not win anything when I check it, I think HELL NO! And I crumple it up and throw it in the trash.

Confess I spend $2 to $4 a week playing the lottery, and for me, it is money well spent.

(Yeah, I average $150 a year on the lottery in money spent, but some years I get back $200, and some years only $75, so low cost for all the fun daydreams).

Confess that sometimes the store that has the best price on Natty still runs out from time to time.

The last time this happened, just a few days ago, I bought the last 2 30 packs.

WELL! One of those 30 packs the cans are black, and say Natural Fright, so this is old beer from a Halloween past, and it tastes like old beer.

Confess it is very weird how during Halloween season none of the Natty cans looked like this, but here in March I have this now.

I plan to suffer through and drink all this old beer, unless it pulls a chili thing on my stomach.

For the record, I like all of you, and I confess none of you are on that kiss my ass list.

The ramps in that game just had a awesome sound when I hit them, and frying Sparky was always fun.

Confess I do miss not having that game here now.

(Also confess I would not pay todays prices to get it back).
