I realize I'm riding a teeny boat in a very large ocean having only recently bought my first NiB after 40ish years of renting boats for 5 minutes at a time and the occasional project boat full of water. I worked hard and sacrificed a lot to get here as I'm sure most of you have. Still, I feel quite fortunate I was able to get my dream boat.

I think this thread and others like it are a lot more fun when we focus our wild speculation, inside jokes, pet theories, boat/tide metaphors, dick-measuring and the delightful bitching that comes with them on killer pinball themes, BOM lists, designer drama and the perfect pink powdercoat to spray on our boats rather than broad macroeconomic theories and how the needs, motivations and worldviews of people who can't afford boats do or do not impact our boat hobby.

The gang was there to sign the Marvel AIQ pinball deal. Disney/Marvel let them enjoy the park for free, while they were there. That picture posted, was for fun, to stir the pot...

Disney bought Marvel in 2009. Kinda weird that they would "let them enjoy" a competitor's park down the road (Universal) with a property that isn't Disney's as thanks for signing a contract with Disney/Marvel.

Great reply but unfortunately people like him you can’t have a logical constructive conversation or debate. He will just resort to name calling like a child. I totally understand your post and it’s sad that people at fast food joints are getting starting pay at $10 to $15 an hour with zero experience and very little training required.
Unions have outlived their purpose. Just a cash cow for the union leaders anymore. Goodluck and hang in there.

That was a clueless statement . I didn’t call anyone names , have had many constructive online convos , and your blanket statements of all unions is incorrect . Thanks for calling me a child tho …

Universal Studios holds rights to Marvel and has a bunch of Marvel rides and character stuff in their park.

I've been there. I get that. Green goblin terrified my daughter in the park parade when we went a long time ago, and the Spiderman ride freaked out my son, who was too young for it at the time (I discovered mid-ride).

Just seems weird that Disney would say, "thanks for making this deal, now go enjoy our competitor's park."

I'd totally buy it. Has to be a Large Marge toy on the playfield, though. Maybe a levitating ball over a bartop (like the lovegun one on KISS Prem/LE) while Tequila plays, too.

hahah, there is a ton they could do with that. The Alamo basement lol. Large Marge would be a mandatory item. The bike chase scene towards the end of the movie could be a mode...

And all the characters that are met in that movie.. Lots they could explore ha

Wouldn't be the first lie Stern employees have told. Remember "no more AC/DC" right up until the day they announced the vault?

I don't know KME well enough yet, but you cannot believe everything GG says. He has a record of misdirection and outright lies to shield a release.

Big yes to Pee Wee…but Pee Wee’s playhouse! Would be epically crazy! Just imagine the topper! Maybe it’s squirts out ice cream soup? A man boy can dream.

Quoted from Frax:
Yes, because I have any say whatsoever in the union. I can choose to "quit" the union....and they still take money out of my check every month.

You know what...hope that was worth it. How do you know I haven't been trying to do that, or how long I've been trying? It's really difficult to match the BENEFITS that I get from my job, even though the PAY has been stagnant. It doesn't matter if I get paid 10 dollars an hour more, but have no benefits at all, you dingus. Do you ever once actually add anything of value or constructive to a conversation? Not that I've seen. You just spout off at every chance you get to maybe make someone look bad. Hope that karma comes back to bite you in the ass someday.

Ok, I thought suggestions, such as looking for another job with better pay was constructive, especially in your field(You only mentioned the shitty pay, nothing about looking elsewhere). Some people get very hooked or loyal to an employer and feel bad for leaving it, so a little push from a stranger may be all that's needed. Sorry I offended.

Peace be upon you

It is fan made, but the footage is real. It’s a mix of an Argentina electronics store viral ad campaign as well as the movie, Ready Player One.
