Pinball Arcade's Big Shot table should be renamed Bullshit, because that's all it is.

Zimm, Pete, Crunchy, etc. please tell me you guys find that one infuriating too?

Yeah those old old older than chewy ones are rough. I actually think some chick I knew in high school had that Big Shot one in her basement. Was just as frustrating in real life.

I find them all infuriating. I suspect crunchewy plays them all one handed while making a sandwich.
I had an awesome pinbot run going, 5.5m in my first ball. Then 4 times down the left outlane in a row. Why do we play this shit?
I'm enjoying champion pub though, it's silly.

That left outlane is the bane of my existence. Especially when I don't even get a chance to hit the damn ball. fuck that lane.
 
He's a 49ers fan, so some sort of connection to california, aka Mexico North, so yea, him being a native spanish speaker wouldnt be far fetched.

He didnt really post too much in here, just a lot of drive by posts with sale info from what I remember.

I really want to like the older ones because they're so simplistic. Sometimes I don't want to be troubled with firing into a tricky upper chute five times in a row just to reveal the lower mini-playfield, y'know? But they just seem to suck down balls like nothing I've ever seen before, it's crazy...

lol, for once I had zero innuendo in mind when I wrote that, but now that read it again it does sound a bit bawdy doesn't it...

One of these days you should publish 108 Shades of Grey: A Prom Night, I'd be fascinated by a full account of that evening.

I said to the dude at least 4-5 times that if it was something legitimate that made him not use a mic, to just tell us and we would back off. I even said he could just PM me about it. I got nothing back. Dude isn't shy, because he used to talk plenty in streams he'd watch. I know he reads the mexican ps blog regularly, and he once showed a screenshot where he had a bunch of Spanish related sites open. So I've always been of the assumption that English is his second language.

But when you're in a boosting session, and you ask to go first, and then try to bail after you get your trophies, or you keep spamming messages telling everyone else to hurry up, that's being a selfish asshole. Not a single person here was calling him a selfish asshole because of his being shy, anxious, etc. You were the first to make that connection, so...way to go!

The rest of us were calling him a selfish asshole because during boosting sessions, he acts like a selfish asshole.

Damn, dude you're ruthless lol. I'll leave it alone. Again, I was not defending him as I've never even played with the guy. Seemed a bit uncharacteristic since he's pretty friendly on CAG but if you insist that was how it went down then it is what it is. I was only throwing out possible explanations for his lack of communication. I had a bit of an accent as well so I can relate to not wanting to constantly repeat myself with people I've just met (I've brought this up in the GS thread). He damn near always posted in Morse code so (perhaps wrongly) I assumed that might have been what was causing the issue over the mic. You win! A true #MasterRaider & #MasterDebater. Teach me your ways, sensei.

RPG...if you're out there bro...we miss you. Come back.

Also happy to report that chewy and I finally finished dead nation. In record time no less! And he helped me get a misc. trophy so I can get plat at some point. Thanks chewy.

P.s. All he could talk about was how he was the master of pinball and that Pete and zimm were his britches.
 
RPG was fine.  He truly didn't contribute a whole lot, maybe some links for new trophy lists and blogcast new weekly games, but that was about it.  I never played with him personally but he did get on a lot of people's nerve from what I heard.  Mostly the communication part of it, sending stupid PSN messages and stuff.  To me he did have an air of superiority and cockiness at times, which I thought was weird.  Definitely didn't hesitate to call you a "nub" or "newb" if you asked a question he thought was dumb.  Since he never established much of a persona since he never said anything, it was hard to tell if he was just kidding around or being a prick.  During the World Cup he also continually changed his avatar to whatever team was playing my two favorite teams (USA and Holland) which is obnoxious as most sports fans know when you're hanging around someone who actively roots for every team that is playing your team.  He definitely rubbed me the wrong way a few times.

Stotch was a bit hard on him at times, but that's stotch.  And the jokes about him reviewing games based on trophies was by far the most true with him.  The only thing he'd ever say about a game is how the trophies were.  Making fun of him for going for easy trophies and calling easy mode "rpg mode" was rude but also not really inaccurate.

I didn't actively want him gone like I have with others both in this thread and the old PSN one, but I'm also not going to say I miss him at all.  I won't be hot or cold if he comes back.  I mean, what is there to miss really?

 
I didn't want to say anything, but...I'm rpg.  I bought Rosetta Stone and decided to re-brand myself.  I'm still not gonna sit around all fuckin day while you figure out what you need to boost though, I'm done, why aren't you?

Look at you, the original internet badass. Keep showing these yungins you mean business, KRacker. Who's next on your list? You haven't shown me enough attention lately. I'm so cold.

lol... you're such a douche.

Hey, here's an idea... how about you not make assumptions about something that you don't know anything about? Then no one has to put you in your place for talking out your ass.
 
Rpg couldn't figure out how to get on the interstate in burn out and do a wheelie or whatever we were trying to do at the time. It was comical. But at the end of the day we are going to ridicule each other for the stupid things we all do. If your going to be a little britch and go home so be it.
 
As for stotch and jay, they're abrasive but sometimes that can be a good thing.  I think Gator said it, but sometimes it's nice to know where you stand with someone.  They've both definitely said lots of things that I only think but wouldn't say due to social contracts and pleasantness and all that jazz.  So it's nice to have them around.  But they've both picked fights I don't agree with at all too.

As for breakfuss, he is a nice counter balance to all that.  As long as he doesn't take things too personally, he does a good job of providing rational arguements to the other sides of things.

Then there's Topside.  He's as abrasive as Stotch and Jay, but to me it seems like with less of a point behind it and more of a "I'm a jerk" kind of thing.  

The rest of you are pretty much just normal people that are easy to associate with.  

 
Regarding old pinball machines. Those are more fun when you can bump the machine to save the ball. While you can bump in PA it is limited and hard to do well. Of course some are more random than others, especially the farther you go back.
 
Yo pitfall....

Do you like blueberry mini muffins?







Well how do you like them mini muffins?

And you're right...I am making assumptions about him but aren't you as well? Who the fuck knows why he doesn't like using a mic but let's just assume the worst of people because it's fun. And me likes fun. RPG don't help me gets the trophiez, bad RPG. BAD.

Dude's been here as long as anyone and yall just throw him under the bus lol. Curmudgeon-y ass gamers lol. You hate on goddamn everything and everyone. Top,
you used to be cool/funny as hell but whatever. I'll stay out of your way.

I'm about to get this Danganronpa platinum so I can be worthy of your presence. Omg trophhhies. I cum fucking trophiessss. SONY why are you so good to me!!!!???? Do me now, KAZ.

There's a difference between actively disliking a team and just rooting against a team you know someone else likes. I really don't think rpg had anything against the Netherlands soccer team before he found out I was cheering for them.

And trust me I hated Kentucky long before I met any of you assholes, hell I hated them long before that cheating scumbag Calipari got there. If you've been a UK fan long enough I'm sure you'll be able to figure out why I'm not a fan. But you and Kilik do make it even easier to hate them. It's too bad Fatality has been brainwashed too, he seemed pretty cool.

As for Seattle, eh fuck Seattle. So fucking sick of hearing about them.

I just don't see how Topside is any different than Stotch and Jay other than he does not hammer the same thing over and over unless there is a new post as a reason to bring something back up. I just think he isn't a friend of yours so you look at him differently.

Breakfuss and rational arguments? What thread have you been reading? You just like that he thinks you are the "daddy of the thread" don't you?

The last point I can agree with.

See? Douche.

If you were paying attention you'd see that people weren't making assumptions, but were basing what they said off the interactions they had with him. And then you come in here with your "way to go" bullshit, pointing the finger at us like we're a bunch of monsters.

That's all I've got to say; I'm not getting back into this stupid shit with you just because you've got some fucked up mindset where you get off on arguing with people.

tyler just likes to troll me.
 
It's a downer watching the new season of The Challenge and hearing Diem talk about her future and wanting kids, knowing that it never happened. Knight was always an asshole, so while it sucks when anybody dies, I can't say I'll miss seeing him on TV.

 
What if breakfuss was touched by his father and that's why he's super sensitive to people talking about him?  Now I bet you guys all feel sad and sorry.  What if we all just ignored facts about how people act and what is the most likely occurrence and come up with extravagant hypotheticals as to why they act that way to excuse their behavior?

That's possible. But I still contend that Topside is the biggest bully in this thread, being a jerk just for the sake of being a jerk. And he definitely isn't good at dropping things either. He and breakfuss can go on and on about something stupid while the whole rest of the thread moved on ages ago.

And I'd make the exact same comment about your opinion of breakfuss. I think there are lots of people here who got sick of him a while ago so they never read his posts with an objective eye anymore.

 
Orange is the New Black thoughts (spoilers if you haven't seen it all):

I said earlier that (during Season 1) these were some of the friendliest prisoners I'd ever seen.  I wonder if that's something the writers took into account.  I mean, the show basically glorified Litchfield as a fun girl's camp.  I think someone (Pancakes?) said that they didn't like Season 2 nearly as much because they made all the characters unlikable.  I didn't think it was that bad but I certainly understand how someone could feel like that.

Season 2 was pretty good except for the first episode where Chapman had to go to max and nobody knew what the fuck was going on.  The rest of the season was pretty good and the storylines made a bit more sense to me and reminded me that they were in fact in prison.  They did a great job with V as the main antagonist.  I've had about enough of the Bennett/Daya storyline (turning himself in makes NO sense, why the fuck is she pushing this?), I don't think they have any idea what to do with Pennsatucky, and Larry and Polly sure "fell in love" fast (I mean, they fucked once that we saw and now they're in love?). Despite those couple small criticisms, Season 2 was still pretty entertaining and well acted with characters you can get invested in.  Season 2 felt a lot more realistic but I found Season 1 more entertaining. 

And I just can't not mention the ending scene, I've gotta Therm out here.  It was was blatant with the symbolism it was insulting.  Cancer patient with weeks to live escaping jail rocking out to "Don't Fear the Reaper".  And if you still don't get that she's reliving her youth, they actually morph her into the younger version of herself.

C'mon.  We get it.  Have a little faith in your audience.

 
Also, Orange is the New Black didn't turn out to be as nearly female-centric and progressive as I expected, but you'd never know it from the first few episodes. Tons of maxi pad/tampon and lesbian stuff right at the start (much more than in the later episodes) and then the third episode puts a major focus on the transgender inmate.

Regardless of politics and all that jazz, that sort of stuff is going to make some people uncomfortable.  It's just how it is.  And most people don't like spending their precious free time watching something that makes them uncomfortable. I can fully understand how basically all males I've talked to have said they couldn't really get into it and stopped watching after a few episodes.
