@dracularza @PrometheusCodes @POKESTREETZ I'm sorry, but you clearly have a comprehension disability.

@OGElasticPanda @PrometheusCodes @POKESTREETZ You’re not concerned about that at all you’re only concerned about this thread and its topic… pokemans

🚨 ETB pops up… then it turns physical 😳 Smith’s Las Vegas — Camper waited 4 a reload when some1 else tapped the machine & an Ascended Heroes ETB popped up Camper got aggressive, put hands on them & even pushed employee If you didn’t tap… is it yours? 👀 #PokeStreetz

Scalping goes WAAAAAAAY beyond Pokémon. I've already clarified this. Yeah, people who are purchasing at those prices have a problem. Scalpers are only in Pokémon right now because there are so many dumbasses needing their cardboard fix worse than a crack addict seeking their next fix. I'm more concerned about the scalpers who are hoarding actual products people need. I'm more concerned about the organized ones working together in LARGE groups. These are the ones who came into the Pokémon craze. Same shitty people, different product, easier plus less risky turn around. I'm more concerned about the assholes like the guys during the pandemic who bought all of the hand sanitizer, face masks, and toilet paper within a 1,300 mile radius. That type of shit needs to be punishable by jail time. That shit needs to be illegal. To be fair... Pokémon cards, as retarded as it is, have already lead to at least one shooting... How is that not a big deal? How is that different from drug dealing?

@OGElasticPanda @PrometheusCodes @POKESTREETZ It’s a piece of card board that someone is hoarding and selling to people who value that card board. No one’s taking advantage of anyone. Buyers have FOMO. Argue about actual problems in our society.

Nice deflect. The point was there is a difference between a job, and a hustle. Scalping is not a job. It is a hustle that takes advantage of others. Nobody likes scalpers, not even other scalpers. Nobody defends scalpers except for themselves, and defense attorneys when required. Society would be a much better place if these narcissistic parasitic leeches were removed.

@OGElasticPanda @PrometheusCodes @POKESTREETZ And being your own boss and employee is a bad thing why?

@dracularza @PrometheusCodes @POKESTREETZ

@PrometheusCodes @OGElasticPanda @POKESTREETZ I wish I was a scalper. I open everything I buy for that dopamine hit. Just because it’s shitty doesn’t mean it isn’t a job. People bomb homes for a living but being part of the military is still a job

@dracularza @PrometheusCodes @POKESTREETZ There is a difference between a "job" and a "hustle". Jobs contribute to society, hustles contribute to ones own bank account disregarding how it effects anyone else. A hustle can also be dealing drugs. I wouldn't consider any dishonest work a "job" just because it makes money.

@PrometheusCodes @OGElasticPanda @POKESTREETZ Nobody’s forcing anybody to buy anything . If those people are willing to pay that type of price that’s their fault. Yall are keeping them in business and paying thousands for cardboard. If it makes money it’s a job.

@dracularza @POKESTREETZ It's not Pokémon cards that's the only problem. x.com/i/status/20473…

@OGElasticPanda @POKESTREETZ Okay Mr dictator. If it makes money it’s a job

Do you seriously believe these people WANT a normal job? Please don't tell me you're actually that stupid... Criminals choose the life they lead. Crime is the easy way out. Don't have something, just take it from someone else. Crime pays more than the typical 9-5 these morons wouldn't even be able to hold down.

@libsoftiktok Blaming Democrats alone is a lazy analysis. Both parties have failed to address the root cause of joblessness, which leads to these 'organized rings.

I just walked into CVS in D.C. and you have to ask an employee to unlock the door if you want to buy garbage bags and paper towels I asked why? “People steal.” The employee then explained that in D.C. they don’t hold criminals so they have organized rings who steal then hand it to others to resell it. The robbers can steal up to a certain amount worth and will be released each time so they max out. This is not a third world country. This is our nation’s capital. This is what Democrats are doing to our cities.

@OGElasticPanda @POKESTREETZ It's not that serious lmao

@mich51880 @POKESTREETZ Bold opinion traveling all the way from Japan to America.

Whoever is using a camera or filming it why don't they help to free him. DANG HELP HIM

@NostalgiaFolder Fuck me sideways, if I had a genie I'd wish these back into existence.

"Cookies &" bars (2002-2005)

The only ascended heroes I've opened were in my dreams. I've hit 2 god packs so far! Other than that, I've yet to even SEE a single pack. I've accepted skipping this set, but I have bought some cheap singles I like. I've also picked up few to build decks with. I've spent roughly $20 on Ascended Heroes, and I'm ok with it.

4 ex’s pulled through all these packs/products. That’s it Getting harder and harder to justify opening Pokémon packs at these prices honestly.

Lord, I’ve seen what you’ve done for others 🙏🏻

Gaming in general was better before everyone started streaming. Not saying that "streaming" is the issue, but it lead to the cheating take over. Everybody wanted to make a living by playing video games, because they're lazy assholes. Especially the people who aren't even remotely good at said video games. This brought us the era of hyper inflated cheating. Some things you just had to be there to fully grasp the difference... This is why older COD games were so much better. People played it for fun. Not as if it was life, or death matchs. Now days people take it far too serious.

The 4 best COD games, objectively

Gremlins! You?!

Greed in general is ruining the hobby, but it's also a big part of the hobby. Everyone wants more to open for themselves, and they want to pay as little as possible. Wal-mart is likely sick, and tired of all the degenerates in this "hobby". Raising "MSRP" price lowers the profit margins for resellers. It makes it less appealing. Also, prices have gone up all across the board due to supply/demand issues. Everybody's just looking for someone to blame... We're ALL to blame. Collectors, scalpers, corporations, investors, rip n' ships, etc... We're all the reason the supply has dried up, some more than others, but it still falls on ALL of us. The final boss is FOMO. We'll all face it, but only the strong will prevail.

Bad morning trainers. Corporate greed is going to kill this hobby. We are at the point where Walmart is now placing barcodes over original packaging and charging near market for products. $29.99 for a prismatic tech sticker collection

Children aren't pets. Gay couples have every right in the world to be together, marry, and be happy together. However, they forefeit their ability to have children by their lifestyle choices. Every decision we make comes with consequences. Sometimes these are positive, sometimes they're negative. We make these decisions our selves, but must accept the consequences that are equipped to our choices/actions. This is about the child, not the adults. Anyone who says otherwise is self conceited with an inability to grasp empathy. Go get a dog, or a cat... Not a baby.

Two gay men in Nashville are sparking nationwide outrage after recording a video of themselves mocking the baby they had via surrogacy as it cries for its mother for content. Man: “Who do you want, Dada or Pop?” Baby: “Mama” Man: “No, there is no mama.” Baby: cries

@bluewiddowx @buttercupcos2 @Sneesnaw Fuckin' whores have even invaded POKEMON... Worthless in life? Do you find yourself with no skills, talents, goals, education, morals, values, shame, or even the slightest amount of respect for your family? That's PERFECT, join OnlyFans today! Fuck every thing, and everyone!

Is this a hard choice

@anime_esh202 Disney might not remember, buuuut...

Hey Disney. Remember that Malcom in the Middle episode called Houseboat. When a bunch of cheerleaders came up to the boys. And Stevie was checking them out. In fact when him and Reese came back from seeing them, he had a big happy grin on his face during that episode. That so isn’t Straight, right?
