Quoted from Tmezel:If I lose a ball when I forget to take them out when lifting the playfield, I might grab the crappy Stern balls and use them sometimes.
There should be a ballcatcher mod for that. 
Quoted from Tmezel:Believe me, one day I spent quite a bit if time trying to figure out a mod for that problem. No breakthrough.
Just use the same kind of netting around the machine like they use on the Golden Gate bridge to catch jumpers. 
(I'm laughing at the picture of that in my head, not the jumpers, so don't anybody get your panties in a bunch.)
Quoted from Whysnow:If you have purchased a game from me just know that my balls have likely been on the lockdown bar when playing a game or 2 with my wife.
And the mark they leave is what makes your games so valuable and one-of-a-kind. 
Quoted from thedefog:I also think I enjoy restoring games more than playing them. I also enjoy selling them for less than I have into them because I just want more people appreciating them and not get ripped off. Yes, I'm crazy and obsessive. I get tunnel vision with projects and just work on them non-stop until they are done, otherwise they get shelved and I never finish them.
Oh, thank God. There's somebody else like me. I'm OCD until the machine is the way I want it to be. $$$ drained into it come hell or high water and everything has to be perfect. I had a friend look at me like I was nuts when I told him everything I was buying for my Congo. I paused and said, "I know I'll never get it back," and he laughed and told me he was glad I said it so he didn't have to tell me that.

Quoted from Yoko2una:My girlfriend wants to see Jurassic World tonight (obviously I do too, but I never need to see a movie opening night).
try to give her the boot by 11pm
You had me up until trying to give your girlfriend the boot. Just a word of caution: I used to gently prod girlfriends toward the door...and they always ended up showing me the door. Took me 40 years to get married.

Putting the rubber sleeves on my domed LEDs in my Funhouse yesterday felt WAY too close to when I used to wear condoms, except the LEDs seemed bigger.

There's somebody on Pinside I really can't stand. Don't tell anybody. 
EDIT: Nope. Wait...thought of another one.
EDIT: Make that two.

Quoted from epthegeek:Good to know your marriage is built on a foundation of lies and lack of support. Should turn out great in the end.
Yeah...3 pinsiders gave that thumbs up. No wonder there are so many divorced guys in this hobby. I'd rather have my wife be upset with the truth than deal with her lawyer because of the lies.
Quoted from TxJay:Yeah, like Pinside has a much higher divorce rate than average..Give me a break. And if your marriage is so fragile that your wife would divorce you over that then you have bigger issues that need to be addressed.
Guess you don't go to many pinball shows. It's like the lonely hearts club in there.

Quoted from gliebig:Sometimes when I let the dog out at night, I also pee in the yard.
Been there. Done that. Proud of it. I'm just giving back to nature. 
Quoted from swampfire:About 12 years ago, when our dog was still alive, our son pooped in the back yard (he was 5). Of course I scolded him and told him to go clean it up. But he took too long and when he went back, it was gone. I'll just let that sink in.
I've heard food always tastes better the second time.
Quoted from mickthepin:And that is why a dog is a filthy amimal
Apparently, Germans like to do that, too. Or so South Park would have us believe...
That's only redneck dogs in Georgia that eat human shit. My dog up here in Jersey has more discerning tastes: it's deer shit or nothing.

After getting GOT LE, and slapping the lockdown button to cash in the iron bank when the ball drains, I can frequently be seen slapping the buttonless lockdown bar on every other game when the ball drains for no...apparent...reason.

Quoted from TopMoose:When I see "CV" my first thought is "copy/paste," rather than "Circus Voltaire."
Thank God...I thought it was just me. I always think "Curriculum Vitae."
Quoted from embryonjohn:My wife caught me polishing my knob. I told her I'd leave it alone for a day, but she was sleeping and I didn't want to wake her and then she walked in on me...
I've seen your knob, and it needed a good polishing. Can't say I didn't offer... 
Quoted from Paul_from_Gilroy:I've bamboozled my wife into believing that pinball machines all over the house are "investments".
PM sent to your wife.

Quoted from Spg101:I'm finding the only good time for Tourette's is during a good pinball game. Pretty sure my son will only use F**king piece of sh*t crappy game anyway during a good game...
So glad you posted this. I always love when I'm in the presence of a person that has the cursing version of Tourette's. If that's a disability, then I'm disabled, too...and I don't feel so lonely anymore.
