I confess I have spent way too much on pinball related stuff this month between machines, parts, etc. I think I might need an intervention. Otherwise I will likely impulsively buy more.

Wrong place to ask for an intervention. Lol. Unless you want to sell some.

Quoted from onemoresean:I spent $0 on Black Friday this year.
I spent waaaaaaaaaaay more than I ever have, but every single bit of it is for ME and mostly pinball related!
Quoted from orangegsx:I turn my heated seat on for the passenger seat of my car when bringing hamburgers home.
Nothing wrong with that! I hate it when my food is cold by the time I get home. If I had heated seats, I'd do it, too.
Oh, who are we kidding? I'd forget to turn it on.

Way to use those bun warmers

The option to pass on collecting your Super Jackpots in Munsters (to save them for when multipliers are active) is a really fun mechanic, and super satisfying when you pull off that monster 6X for 30-40 million points. It really forces you to pay attention and weigh risk/reward the entire time you're playing, and I love it. If you're the Pinsider I argued with about why this mechanic is great- you're wrong.
I left on an extended (7 week) sailing trip to central America three years ago and when I returned ,my wife had set the high scores on all my machines. My friends and I have not been to dethrone her.
At least she did not take a sledge hammer to the games after I posted pictures of some bikini clad Brazilian girls who we met and entertained my crew and I.
IMG_0723 (resized).jpgI confess I thought people were crazy when they said “be careful with stern playfields while moving them around to work on because they can drop into the cabinet and I have done it” until I did just that tonight.
Quoted from Monk:I confess I thought people were crazy when they said “be careful with stern playfields while moving them around to work on because they can drop into the cabinet and I have done it” until I did just that tonight.
Been there done that.
I confess that I big time hold back not posting stuff on here I did when I was a teen.
Someday... I will have a tad too much to drink, and do some funny damn posts.
In the meantime I confess I am about to get a multicade arcade game and not a pinball, and moving a whole lot of junk around for where I want it.
At least my space is ready for the next 2 pins without moving anything. And all I know is the next AP game goes in the first space.
Quoted from JohnnyPinball007:And all I know is the next AP game goes in the first space.
And a great addition to your game room !

I tried to watch an episode of "Rick & Morty." Halfway through I clicked the on the little 'x' in the browser tab.
A surprising number of spare parts in my workbox are because I ordered the wrong thing or way too many of the right thing.

I have a 30x30 metal storage building like that. And I confess that I added a 2nd floor.
Quoted from bssbllr:^^^^^ They carry different options in different places. Like in Hawaii they had spam and noddles prob where that sauce is.
I’ve never tried spam...
Quoted from hwyhed:I’ve never tried spam...
I don't know if I've ever ordered/tried spam?
When I replace a fuse now I just try to match what they look like because I can never read what the amps are on the damn fuse because I can’t find my damn reader glasses because I’m getting old and my damn eyes are going.
Quoted from bssbllr:^^^^ Fry it up taste like ham.
It has your name all over it then. Just in time for the holidays

If you have a smart phone, use the camera as a magnifying glass to zoom in on the writing.
Quoted from snowy_owl:I honestly hate data east pinball machines.
I hate Gottlieb pinball machines.
And I confess the last few weeks I have spent more time on old school arcade games than my pins. But variety is nice, and the pins will get played again soon.
Sometimes reminisce about checking the coin return slots for free quarters back when I was an impoverished arcade kid. I long for the days when a game of pinball held so much value and concentrated enjoyment. Then I snap it if it and play pinball in the comfort of my own home for a couple hours. 
Quoted from Tranquilize:Sometimes reminisce about checking the coin return slots for free quarters back when I was an impoverished arcade kid.
I confess I am still a kid and check coin return slots.
And I confess my girlfriend is probably right. While I brag that I have never messed with facebook or any of that kind of thing she tells me well you do spend a lot of time on Pinside.
I confess I have had about 3 more beers than I needed to have tonight.
And I confess I am addicted to Pinside.
BUT, I do prove her wrong when I learn a new trick we can use on a pin, and she asks how did you learn that, and I say... on Pinside.
