Framboise posted:popular youtuber was just revealed to have been cheating on his wife and apparently is a malignant sex pest and propositioned minors as well There's a lot of this now and it's because of people (almost always men) taking advantage of how easy it is to develop a cult of celebrity on the internet combined with having direct access to their fans.

Tying up $500 for 2 weeks is pretty outrageous regardless of who it is. There is zero reason the refunds couldn't have been made in a timelier manner. lol wtf is this?  I ain't sharing this shithole with my real friends.

Given the truly ludicrous card quality, you should be running 18 lands, and 19 isn't out of the question - you have Chandra, Sarkhan, Bolas, Bontu and Kaya. Also Saheeli's Silverwing and Ahn-Crop Invader are both perfectly playable cards, especially compared to some other stuff in there like Liliana's Triumph (bad card, don't play it).

Man they are gonna have to come up with a new word for "male feminist" because enough of them have turned out to be sex weirds that it's pretty much soured the brand. Josh Whedon was merely the harbinger.

So under this picture you paint, the carbon blob from sector 7G is going to eat the Mythic Edition if they actually recieved it? If someone is such a corpfucker that they're going to skip meals to buy wizard squares, maybe it's for the best that the sale fell through. At least the people that take out a loan to get an expensive purse end up with a thing they can put their poo poo into. ALAS HOW WILL I BUY DUMB poo poo I DON'T NEED is in an incredible take, exacerbated by the fact that you can still fritter away your life savings on the next shiny trinket that comes along. Can't wait to hear how they've ironed out the wrinkles for sales of Core 2020 Mythic Edition! (Also can't wait for the tantrums from people who expected Wizards to have their poo poo together)

Josh Whedon was merely the harbinger. whedon wasn't even close to the first. I'm pretty sure there was a very popular philosopher about 5-8 years ago who id'ed as a 'male feminist' who ended up being incredibly loving creepy with how he talked about his experiences with women.

I can respect identifying as a feminist specifically to tell lovely fans to go gently caress themselves. But it does seem like anyone who feels the need to grandstand about it is trying to compensate for something.

Skipping lunch for a week to invest in a sure thing seems like a reasonable thing to do. Right? If you're going to be on some "well The Poors need to make all of their purchases out of cold, dispassionate rationality" then a product that's almost guaranteed to instantly at least double in value and be relatively easy to re-sell fits the bill. Hell I wasn't going to scalp it outright, but I figured it was an easy-to-justify expense if I got one since I could flip 1-2 of the guaranteed included cards out of it and cover the cost of a fun high power draft with the fellahs.

If you have to starve yourself to buy cardboard then I'm glad you weren't allowed to go through with it. Being poor doesn't mean your $500 deserves any special treatment. The refund taking a few extra days is annoying but they are going above and beyond what is required of them. You are coming out on top in the end. Edit: on the "investment" (actually speculation) angle, if the carrying cost of a slow refund is such a burden how were you planning on living through the much longer period of waiting for shipping, waiting for ebay auction, waiting for payment to clear to your bank in the event that you actually got the boxes?
