i needed help from the goon fund from plinkey when i was in a real tight spot many years ago. i asked for 50 bucks and he gave me 100, which really helped me out of a jam.

on the other hand the money came with a condition, that was to praise him in the cspam trump thread. looks like pms before 2019 were purged so i cant prove it

i think the thing where you can game the casino to get comps is pretty much dead by now because they're insanely good at using electronic metrics to track how much money you're actually staking versus house edge

It was probably more or less above board but Plinkey was just acting insanely suspiciously the whole time to the point of comedy

things are mutually exclusive but the dude bragging about how much he gambles and can easily pay off his student loans from the winnings is either the most stable, well adjusted person on the planet who just happens to gamble very well, or isn't.

like even on craps, which he apparently played a lot, you aren't going to get that many comps if you play "correctly" because "correct" craps play involves making a ton of bets on the odds side bet, which has a zero house edge, meaning the tracking software basically discounts it when tracking how much you're giving the casino

plinkey landlord stuff, seemed to be openly accepted by everyone, there weren't any pushback or denials that it was a joke

Accusation:

Mr Hootington posted:

Plinkey owns an apartment building, a few other less prolific posters own rental properties, and i suspect a couple others of having some. Maybe I will start a leftist landlords thread.

Evidence

Plinkey posted:

welp, i became a landlord today

sorry thread

(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Not clear if he bought a rental property on his own or just inherited the slumlord trade from his dad.

Plinkey posted:

my dad was a landlord and owned like 10 section 8 houses, its in my blood

he's also a huge rear end in a top hat

the only stories about the plinkey fund was that the money was given arbitrarily, which is unusual as you would expect a fund ran by a trump thread gambling addict landlord to be more reasonable and even handed

yeah but it helped goons (plinkey, plinkeys friends, and people who would help him chase clout by praising him publicly) so who can say if its good or bad

I had a beer once with Stephen Miller and now I like him.

I also tried to ban someone from a Discord for pointing out what an unrelenting shithead I am! I'm even dumb enough to think it worked!
(Hopefully this is the right place)

I don't remember if this is actually an SA legend or if it was just linked on SA, I remember it involving an Automotive Insanity poster, but it was mostly recorded on another old car forum, either way: The Arizona Towing scandal.

It involved a dude who lived in a development in AZ (maybe) that had really annoyingly strict parking rules.

TLDR: Dude gets a boot for something stupid, but he's a mechanic and just props his car up on dollies and rolls it into his garage. Tow company tries to tow car and/or make him pay the fine, but he says no but you can come take you boot back whenever. They file a police report, but the police side with the dude. In the end it turned out there was some corruption going on between the HOA president and the Tow company that may have been the president owning the company or just embezzeling money from the fines or something.

Anyone remember this?

The actual post isn't from here it's from some vw forum and got shared in the "PYF Other Forum Sagas" thread, the archive.org link works but will take a while to load like they do:

TITTIEKISSER69 posted:

https://web.archive.org/web/20080611230644/http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3880087

Guy lives in a gated community, gets his car booted because he forgot his parking tag or something like that. So, he jacks up his car and puts all four wheels on rolling dollies, and pushes his car into his garage - because the rules say he doesn't have to pay if the booted car is on his property (he was booted while parked on the street). He then calls Arizona Parking Solutions and tells them to come get their boots, the police get involved and take his side, hilarity ensues.

I think about it periodically it's always a good gently caress-hoas lol
