jimmy1200:

Pogs gonna come back. Someone gonna make like a quick 4 million on that, and then dip.

(jimmy works on how he can do that on a budget) lol

I’ll give away 1 gem. I think the way to bring pogs back is to aim at the nowhere cities. Small cities. Bring only just 1000 dollar grand prizes (well, way less. maybe one thousand gp on 3 major tournies or something). You hit like 50 of these cities, and the buzz will get poppin quick. As ive traveled, i realize that companies just focus too much on large cities, because its easy, safe, and guaranteed. But if you starting something from the bottom up, i think you need to touch these parts of america that are just ignored. They dont even need to be bum fuck though. Nashville has become a mini tech city in Tennessee, but its still generally overlooked by most of america.

Like, why would you start a food truck in houston, queens, or wherever. You need to go to the biggest city in Montana, and fucking profit like crazy with authentic mexican tacos or some shit. People have too many big dreams these days, but dont wanna start small.

DROPPIN GEMS ON YOU NIGGAS!!

It’s true. Everyone wants to start where everyone is already established and shit when theres an untapped market everywhere else.

I vaguely remember those, @odin. Still have no idea what they actually are, though. Never did.

I’m of the Beyblade generation :lol:

My face every time you say something like this.

You bet 3-4 against another person. Then you stack them all into a column.
Slam them with a “slammer”.
Whichever Pogs end up on their backs, you win.

First gambling game ever allowed in elementary. (Well, after marbles)

Speaking of weird collectible trinkets from our pasts, did any of you ever collect Mighty Beanz?

There had to have been at least thousands of the little fuckers, I used to have a booklet full of 'em. Lost my shit when I finally got the Venom one.

ThePurpleBunny · April 13, 2016, 11:13pm

Worse than hippies.

odin · April 13, 2016, 11:15pm

I was 19 when this shit came out. Get back on the playground with Tyrone.

This shit is great tho. Smart men. Not falling for your trap, Harvey.

Ah, I see. The only gambling I did in elementary involved PKMN and YGO cards. Followed the “if you lose, give up your best card” rule back then lol.

Exodus_1 · April 13, 2016, 11:17pm

HAPPY!

YOU BAD AT SEX MORONS!

HAPPY!

Exodus_1 · April 13, 2016, 11:19pm

I guess it’s funny because that probably means the first dwarf that popped into their heads was Dopey.

Bious · April 13, 2016, 11:19pm

Doc.

odin · April 13, 2016, 11:20pm

Either that or Sleepy or Grumpy. I even forgot there was a Happy.

MARTIAN · April 13, 2016, 11:20pm

The playground is where all the fun is

Bious · April 13, 2016, 11:22pm

I’ve never seen that episode and I’m 110% sure Grumpy is the #1 answer.

SRK should consolidate and start a new Pogs company. Kids today are stupid enough to fall for it again. Wait a minute…

PARENTS today are dumb enough to fall for it… again.

And I just bought my son a lizard…

:tup:

Exodus_1 · April 13, 2016, 11:28pm

What kind of lizard?

e: fuck I flew right past my 6,666 post without even noticing. 1,108 to go until the next “cool” repeating number milestone.

Phantom_Angel · April 13, 2016, 11:29pm

Bearded Dragon?

Pertho · April 13, 2016, 11:30pm

Think i played with a lot of the traditional children toys. Tops, marbles, yoyos etc. would definitely get them all for my kid.

RocketUppercut · April 13, 2016, 11:30pm

If it’s anything less than a chameleon you’re a bad father.
