Quoted from Aurich:Threads like this are part of the reason I read Pinside less than I used to. The sexism and tired dick jokes really drag this place down.
Maybe somebody will start a "Why do pinball guys get all the guys?" thread.
Quoted from Otaku:Unlike the rest of you bragging about how much sexier pinball has made you, I didn't even need pinball to get me laid.
Seems I got laid a lot more when I just played these in arcades before I took on the burden and responsibillty of owning them.
The best women want dudes that have nothing.
Quoted from Playmatic:I'm guessing that I'm not going to see a bunch of guys posting shirtless pics of themselves while playing pinball?
I heard he's getting into pinball
Quoted from jgentry:Odin, you owe me one set of eyes, mine will never work again.
Get used to it. That image is going to be on the right slingshot plastic of the new
Aerosmith pinball machine.
Quoted from Playmatic:Yep, I saw your totally hot dedicated Dig Dug machine too.
You must have me confused with somebody else. I only buy games that get me women.
Quoted from bkerins:Multiple moderators have been in this thread, reading all its comments along with:
- a photo of bikini Jell-O wrestling
- a photo of a man thrusting into a woman while she's playing pinball
- a personal photo of a pinball player with multiple comments about her looks, including someone referring to what he thinks is her "plastic surgery boob job".Multiple moderators have looked at all this, and have said "sure, this is acceptable". Seriously?
Looks like the good old days are back!
Quoted from Playmatic:My older sister loves pinball
You are welcome to bring her here to play anytime. I only have pinball games. Lots of them.
Quoted from Playmatic:Super sexy, nice Gottlieb Batter up! Why's that girl blocking the photo?
Sorry I took it down.
Once upon a time a well known pinball player came on to pinside and started complaining about such pics. Something along the lines that it offended his cat or his ego couldn't handle it, heck... I don't remember the exact reason. But since then I have tried to abide by the new pinball rules that came to be shortly after that, and I am uncertain if I was breaking any.
Quoted from Playmatic:I thought that's what the member map was for?
My member is off the map.
Quoted from trunchbull:Why haven't there been any gay pinball machines?
Where have you been for the last several years?
Quoted from dmbjunky:Does this get your blood boiling?
Hey, that's Rareheros's house.
Quoted from dmbjunky:I did not make this but again found it on Google when I typed "gay pinball".
Funny, my computer said Ghostbusters.
Some people have their own vision of how the world should be, instead of trying to live in the one that exists. And they tend to get frustrated when that world won't change for them.
I don't always comment about them, but when I do I make it clear I wouldn't want to be one of them.

Quoted from Playmatic:Stern, please stop making every pinball machine based on TV shows that I don't watch.
I knew that was coming. But I thought that was a fairly level headed request.
Quoted from Nevus:Do I agree with those that think people should always change with the times? Not always. People are people. Why should one culture be more right than another?
Quoted from Nevus:Who gets to make that decision?
Usually it's just a few clowns.
Quoted from OLDPINGUY:Otherwise jump in the pool and contribute to a great thread!
Draining is not an option.

Quoted from jwilson:A growing population of pinball enthusiasts - not just women, gays or people who also play videogames - find this tone objectionable
I for one, hope I didn't hurt any of their feelings.
Quoted from kayluh:I hate nearly every fucking post in this thread and want to set it on fire.
Quoted from Playmatic:and this accomplished what now?
It helped breath some life back into this thread while it was going thru a slight lull.
Quoted from Buzz:With so much sexual art work on pinball games. It is a wonder some would have any interest at all in pinball with some of the comments made.
They took the sex out of pinball a few years back, and most that can't handle it are probably either newbies or video gamers going thru changes.
Quoted from Playmatic:A pretty gal is an integral part of many classic pinball themes. Sexy girls, space themes, monsters, cowboys... Now it's Wheel of Fortune & Wizard of Oz?
I've got all those in my collection.
Except the wheel and the oz. Nope, couldn't hang with that.
Quoted from dmbjunky:mocking gay people.
I'm straight myself, and believe everybody has a right to be who they are. Some seem to like to flaunt it more than others though.
Quoted from Buzz:Who gets more girls? EM, or SS guys?
This EM dude seems to be making out all right.
Quoted from Rascal_H:Ice cubes never look that good in real life.
I know. In real life they look like this.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:that reminds me. Anyone have a nautilus for sale?

I just met one of the most beautiful, sexy young ladies I've seen in a long time while shopping today. Probably more than half my age. Didn't even mention pinball. I was just being my normal, cool self. And she got real friendly.
I figure you don't need to be rich, drive a fancy car, wear fancy clothes, or act like some bigwig. You just need to be ready when opportunity knocks.
Maybe if I get her to my house, my classy collection of vintage pinball machines will seal the deal.
Not! I'm going to find a place to hide them!
Quoted from Playmatic:You're stuck in a tough situation, man. If you bring her home and she finds out that you're a pinstud, you're liable to be stuck with 18 years of financial burden.
Yeah, I just finished paying my daughters mom off for the last one.
On the plus side her and my 18 year old daughter might end up having a lot in common and will be able to hang out together.
Quoted from Playmatic:Seriously though, no need to hide your pins, gals dig pinball. It's universally fun and inviting at any skill level for anyone.
I know. I'd hate to leave any empty space and give her any ideas about moving in and decorating the place. I like it the way it is.
One thing I've learned is you don't need to marry them to enjoy them.
Quoted from Playmatic:I live with my boyfriend and the place is full of my stuff.
When I lived with my daughters mom, it was all her stuff except in the garage. Made it a lot easier for me when it came time to go.
I like to travel light. And that keeps me light on my feet.
