It's where mtg players go to die man. Like every player i know who spends more than money on commander than modern tend to slowly slip into "yeah i play when i feel like it. When was the last time? Eh a month or two"

VampireArmy Aside from the last couple of months (been recovering from my heart stopping and all that jazz) I play all three of the good formats. (Because legacy is a wretched hive of scum and villany.)
Bant Megamorph in standard with U/G mill as a backup. (don't judge me)
Bloom titan in modern with Affinity as a backup. (again, shh)
Karador, Derevi, Feldon, Gisa, Prossh, and Nekusar as my commander decks.
My wife also has a standard and modern deck that I foot the bill for. Mardu tokens for standard and mono U tron for modern.
Everyone who plays commander at my shop plays all three formats too. Again, shut your dirty whore mouth :P silly masshole lol.

Sooo ... my daughter's biological mother (I call her biomo) just threatened to call the FBI on the guy that I just recently commanded to wear panties all his life. I gave my daughter this guy's skype on Friday, and then the next day he got a rude message from biomo. I'm just lucky that my daughter is very cautious with our messages, and she clears out everything whenever we are done talking.

It's nice that you got such an understanding daughter. Some people aren't nice enough to do that for you, save your ass I mean.

You sound like a caring mentor, and friend femme. Why the FBI though? That is a strange threat.
On a side note, I think I am going to start threatening my friends with random government acronym agencies.

Speaking of bad smells we have one patron at my shop who either refuses to bate/can't bathe/etc (I don't care), we occasionally spray him with axe body spray because he hasn't gotten the hint.

While the guy seems to be doing fine, my daughter is getting the serious blunt end of things from biomo. I just ... want to take a plane down there and kidnap her and have her live with me for eternity.

You know, statements like that are generally cause for investigation by federal agencies.

Also, I don't think the FBI will do much to a 19 year old guy doing sex talk with a 16 year old girl.

VampireArmy says... #29
You'd be surprised haha. I had a crazy bitch of a mother hire a private investigator against me from her daughter messaging me simply asking if I would help her run away (I said no) and I was 17 at the time (she was 15)
Of course the guy was like "oh just making sure you were who you say you were blah blah blah." It was more like "well since I have nothing to actually charge you with, i'm going to act intimidating so that it feels like I've done my job. In the end I threatened to press charges on her mother instead for multiple threatening phone calls i'd received from her afterwards since the investigator had nothing on me.
the moral of the story is : some people will go to extremes to find something wrong even if there isn't so that they can justify how they treat their kids. It's a sad thing that some parents choke the life out of their children by simply not allowing them to grow up and make some mistakes in life once in a while.

And it's my job to make sure she does grow up properly, regardless of what she wants to do. Which is become a porn star, which apparently she has the moans for it.

Femme_Fatale The FBI would ABSOLUTELY prosecute a 19 year old man for interactions with a 16 year old girl, that's pedophilia if they saw it that way.
September 14, 2015 7:45 p.m.
Femme_Fatale says... #33
Well then they are retards ... because that thing should at most, only apply to those who are 21 and above. 19 year olds are still very much teenagers and could easily be in the same school as a 16 year old. The minimum age difference should be 5 years if both members are underneath 21 and one is above 15, and 3 years if one member is above 21 and the other is below 21.
September 14, 2015 8:23 p.m.
The age of consent is 16 in the us. 18 in some states not many. Therefore a 19 year old sexually interacting with a 16 year old should be fine?
It's mainly in place to prevent coercion and other nasty things happening. It's an arbitrary boundary with solid intentions. The age gap rule for consent is absolutely ridiculous because it explicitly creates a loophole that allows all the kinds of situations to occur that you wanted to prevent in the first place. If you're going to have an age of consent then cool, have one; don't the screw it up with illogical contradictions.
September 14, 2015 8:32 p.m.
I may be mistaken though about the age of consent. But I'm fairly certain it's 16.
September 14, 2015 8:32 p.m.
Didgeridooda says... #36
It is generally 18, with some years of variation in some places.
September 14, 2015 8:39 p.m.
Didgeridooda says... #38
Looks like it varies by state from 16-18
Found the info on other sources that matched, this map colored in crayon just made me laugh more. Uncle Merv would know.
September 14, 2015 8:43 p.m.
Didgeridooda says... #39
Haha, ninja'ed. I was looking up the source. I lived a couple places where it was 18, so I saw that as the norm.
September 14, 2015 8:45 p.m.
Didgeridooda says... #40
I think 19 and 16 could be ok, but I understand where that girl's mother is coming from(though her reaction was a little extreme). If I had a 16 year old daughter, I would not be happy with her dating a 19 year old. Just seems a little off to me.
It was not too bad for me when I was younger, but in general still seemed like a far gap when I was that age. Being older, and a parent just solidifies my opinion.

That feel when you go through your decks and find one that's like 3 years old and it's got 100 points. Good times.

Kind annoyed. Ordered four foil Liquimetal Coating, two from two different vendors. They came today, and i've promptly lost two of them. I've went through all my card piles around the house and can't find em. The positive part of this is that I've thrown out a ton of theros/khans commons/uncommons and bulk rares, which i've needed to do but have been putting off.

I just finished my very first cube. Entry Enjoyment! It is basically a cube to appeal to beginner players by giving them access to archetypes that the common beginner player has been known to like to play.

So minus 1 Spellskite, 1 Hangarback Walker, and 2 Ancient Grudge my affinity deck is finished.
I need BFZ to come out so I can test Omnath locus of rage in bloom titan's SB.
Modern is looking good

Or what you could have done..burn the cards instead.
What my Magic buddy did was went through my collection, sorted then took a stack, and threw them into a fire. (Happened on the forth of July that I had a fire going in the fire pit in the backyard.)
side note: It is fairly interesting to see foil cards "crinkle" rapidly when thrown into a flame.

I have come to notice recently that the radio can be more random than putting your own collection of music on "dice roll".
Seriously, if I were to listen to "dice roll" enough, I'm pretty sure anticipation of next song would happen more frequently than just listening to the radio.
Downside to the radio: When listening throughout the day, you may hear the same "new" song more than once.
