To be fair, "Rakdos Country Club" is a great name for mono-red.

Don't you hate it when people around you insist on trying to interact with you casually? Sperling must be the kind of guy who just starts shouting his order when the Burger King cashier ask him "Would you like to try our...."

I dunno, I think you can hate hearing the same stale quips over and over again and still enjoy other aspects of human interaction

MiddleEastBeast posted:Goons overreacting and taking things too literally? Impossible. The first complaint is something I can see pros who play a ton of games actually whining about, so even if it's satire it's far too believable.

In college, my girlfriend and I both worked at Wal-Mart and she hated this joke so much, before the customer could even get the entire sentence out, she would say "no it isn't", every single time, without the barest hint of levity. She was awesome.

Luckily, I only spent one year in retail, I worked at a local grocery store chain, but in that year, that joke never really bothered me. What bothered me was the time we got robbed by a guy with a kitana or the time a homeless guy took a poo poo in the produce aisle.

Yeah I wholeheartedly agree with his 'creative deck names' point, just using the wedge names is so boring. For instance, if you're making a RWB deck and don't make a newspaper pun, I'm pretty sure you're doing it wrong. Because it's black and white and read all over, you see

Also anyone who makes either joke should be required to commit seppuku. Edit: while having to make idle chitchat with Owen.
