Marysville, IN
I am Steve Bartman. I am quite famous for trying to catch the foul ball in the Cubs/Marlins playoff game. I look in the mirror daily and say "I'm good enough, smart enough and gosh darnit people like me."

Maple Ridge, BC
my real name is Lewis Cypher.
I'm a man of wealth and incredible pin taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a mans pin and faith
And I was round when gary
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure of that
He waxed his playfield and sealed his fate.
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game (pinball)
I stuck around chicago
When I saw it was a time for a change
Beat the tommy and his ministers
Jersey Jack screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a pinball master rank
When the wizard mode raged
And the players stank.
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game (pinball), oh yeah
I watched with glee (not the show)
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten mods
For the gods they made upgrades
I shouted out,
Who killed the EM's?
When after all
It was you and me.
Oh, yeah
also, i use pinside to justify my tron obsession.
Quoted from Hougie:I am Steve Bartman. I am quite famous for trying to catch the foul ball in the Cubs/Marlins playoff game. I look in the mirror daily and say "I'm good enough, smart enough and gosh darnit people like me."
If true, very cool. There was nothing wrong with that attempted catch (and I wanted to see the Cubs win that game. But they blew the series and vilified Bartman instead. As a baseball fan, that still upsets me).
If not, ever wonder is Stern= the Cubs and JJP=the White Sox and Pinside=the whole city of Chicago that can only root for one team?
I've been a Pinside member for nine years, but a bunch of people think that I'm a newbie because I "only own two machines."
I also get called a troll from time to time because I tend to disagree with "normal" pinball machine taste, and I don't care at all what my machines are worth, beyond their fun value to me.

Actually, I'm not. But true story: My college roommate pouted for weeks about that. There is a reason I still know that name, lol. It cracked me up.
Actually. I'm Ran.
One of the other crazies up in Wisconsin like Whysnow and Ralphwiggum who is happy to lend a hand.
Quoted from Hougie:Todd Nathan aka Frank Furhter....
Sorry. Wrong board.

So...You're the one who likes Popeye Saves the Earth! 
Quoted from spfxted:I agree!! Go back and check! I'm swapping it out!
Are those boobs or wrecking balls attached to her chest? 
Oh, and by the way, I am the Walrus.
Quoted from redman822:Are those boobs or wrecking balls attached to her chest?

I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I have been known to remodel train stations on my lunch breaks, making them more efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write award-winning operas, I manage time efficiently. Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row.
I woo women with my sensuous and god-like trombone playing. I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook Thirty-Minute Brownies in 20 minutes. I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love and an outlaw in Peru.
Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once single-handedly defended a small village in the Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I play bluegrass cello...I am the subject of numerous documentaries. When I'm bored, I build large suspension bridges in my yard. I enjoy urban hang-gliding. On Wednesdays, after school, I repair electrical appliances free of charge.
I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a ruthless bookie. Critics worldwide swoon over my original line of corduroy evening wear. I don't perspire, I am a private citizen, yet I receive fan mail...Last summer I toured New Jersey with a travelling centrifugal force demonstration...My deft floral arrangements have earned me fame in international botany circles. Children trust me.
I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I once read Paradise Lost, Moby Dick, and David Copperfield in one day and still had time to refurbish an entire dining room that evening. I have performed several covert operations for the CIA. I sleep once a week; when I do sleep, I sleep in a chair. While on vacation in Canada, I successfully negotiated with a group of terrorists who had seized a small bakery. The laws of physics do not apply to me.
I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and my bills are all paid. On weekends, to let off steam, I participate in full-contact origami. Years ago, I discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down. I have made extraordinary four-course meals using only a blender and a toaster oven. I breed prize-winning clams. I have won bullfights in San Juan, cliff-diving competitions in Sri Lanka, and spelling bees at the Kremlin. I have played Hamlet, I have performed open heart surgery, and I have spoken with Elvis.

That poor girl can't afford real shoes and has to have imaginary heels. Or she's a Barbie doll.
Quoted from spfxted:Yeah, but look at that outfit!
She must drink a lot of diet soda...

Just the average dude who pays too much for broken games, puts too much into them to get them working and then cries when he has to sell one to buy another. Welcome.
