By the way, I have just as many Eels as you do Blowtorches. So you are now, by your own definition, a hoarder. |

I think the secret HT pass phrase could be this:
You turn to the guy in the toy aisle and say the special phrase... "Hey there, what you lookin' at, Dickweed?" That ought to do it. Now everyone go out & try. Let me know how that turned out for ya!

You could pull your shirt out of your zipper and turn your two front pockets inside out and make elephant noises. If the other guy recipricates you're in!

Oh NO! Here's the secret saying. The guy who's looking at joes. You walk up to him and ask "Hey.. are there any Snake Eyes with Black Timbers in there?" If they laugh or make some kind of sound then you know what they are there for.

OK, I think the idea of a secret handshake or phrase would be cool, and the more ridiculous the better, but what about striking up an actual conversation? You see a guy with 3 sets of Wave 13 in his cart, ask him who they're for. Or casually look in the cart and say "Wow, what are you gonna do with all those?" If it's a Tanker, most likely they'll be friendly and respond. At least that's what I've gathered from hanging out here. I know if I was buying multiples of the same figure (which I wouldn't, I don't exactly have liquid assets and I really only want one of each anyway), and someone asked me nicely, I'd give one up, Tanker or not. Anyway, my point is, you have at least one thing in common with the guy rooting thru the Joes, so try a little human interaction. And if the guy's an asshole? THEN you grab his Joes and run to the cashier.

From now on, if anyone asks [ax] me what I'm doing with a pile of toys at a store, I'm gonna answer, "Ritual Sacrifice..." Then I'm gonna laugh like the crazy Irish guy from Braveheart.

I'm not saying give the one figure that you found to some one else I'm saying take what you need, not more.
It's unfair for some of our fellow members being SOL because you wanted that extra $20 so you decided to buy 6 Blow torches to sell online. It's greed, It's what's destroying values and lives around the country.I'm not saying that by not buying a joe you'll single handedly save the economy, just that we should make an effort to be kind to one another instead of giving in to the greed that has corrupted so many in this generation. The ones who don't, probably never will. Just have to roll with it. |
