I really don't understand people's obsession with the end times. It's true there are people in pain and they simply want a quick way out of this life. If it can be someone else's burden, all the better. But it never ceases to amaze me the handful of human beings that come through this life and despite the worst, leave this earth better than they found it. They come and go without a single fuss and better yet they have the blessed frame of mind to focus on what's good rather than highlight every single fault they see in themselves and others. A strong person sees a problem and helps by doing. A weak one sees the same problem, complains about it, then dumps the responsibilities on another. It's great to call attention to a problem if one has a realistic solution. It doesn't do any good to say, "It's hopeless." If it's truly hopeless then it goes without saying. It'll be what it'll be. The greatest part is that, as the cliche goes, the ones screaming bloody murder from the rooftops are usually the people with the least to worry. They've got success in spades and will brag about it until it stops being convenient. Then here they come with a tin cup with a note attached about how life has always done them wrong till now and it's time to pay them back what they are owed. Talk about disappointment in people. I've been let down plenty, yet I don't consider how I'll "get even or get what's mine." If only because I know that if a person takes from me then they must not have had anything of value to start with. Clearly that person saw value in whatever I had and felt that they were lacking. Therefore how could I ever become even with someone who never has enough? By taking something they clearly don't have? That's what's truly pointless. If they take what's mine and do great things with it then the honor is theirs. If they don't succeed that too is their reward. Won't do me any good to spend my life counting misdeeds if I'm already at a deficit.

Always fun to be stuck at a train crossing with 2 full gas cans in the back seat. Even with all 4 windows rolled down it's making me lightheaded. *coughing*

My friend wants to buy a $400 pokemon "THEME" deck. It features Mewtwo. I know nothing about collecting Pokemon, so does anyone know if it is worth purchasing? Honestly I told him to go on TCGPlayer and buy the cards individually. He told me it was $70 if he builds his own. Still he wants the "sealed box" version. Y'all know what's so damn special to be worth $400? @kuharido @hibarisan @projectotakux

@gabriel_true I haven't collected in a while so can't say if that's a good price right now. I will look into it. This video might help though. Do you know the name of this deck? Why is worth that much? Simple economics, people want it and it's not widely available so it's worth a lot. Now if you're wondering why people want cardboard with pretty pictures on them it's the same reason anyone wants anything that isn't a necessity. Like handbags, fancy clothes, cosplay, nice cars, paintings, jewelry, etc. We're human, we like shiny rocks, we like our individuality. https://youtu.be/7-fI94iS3pw

@kuharido It was an original theme deck featuring Mewtwo. I suppose it's whatever the first one was. I see there have been dozens since, but $400 sounds like a 1st edition set maybe.

@gabriel_true he wants an original sealed from all those years ago? $400 would be cheap for that regardless of edition. That should be over $1000.
