    by way of explanation:
     
    Sneed's Old Shredder is a 5/7 Legendary with a Deathrattle that puts a random Legendary into play when it dies.
     
    Unstable Portal is a mage spell that puts a random minion into your hand with a cost reduction. 
     
    Both effects can give you ANY legendary, even class-specific minions that don't belong to your class.
     
    In my case, I used Resurrection on my Sneed's, which "kills" a minion and then brings it back into play, which randomly gave me an Aviana + my Sneed's back and then let me drop Kel Thuzzad (6/8 - all friendly minions that died are brought back into play at end of turn) for 1 mana, which gave me another Sneed's at the end of my turn.  
     
    So...I basically killed off one dude and then filled my board with free Legendaries.
     
    In HIS deck, he's playing a 4 mana spell called Echoes of Medivh that puts a copy of each friendly minion in play into your hand.  So I assume, he got a cheap Aviana and then was able to play minions in his hand for 1 mana each, and then bounce copies back to his hand and play them for 1 as well (including another Aviana).

    So funny story..crushed on this girl I worked with at a previous store. She had a boyfriend. I move to new store. Randomly see her on okcupid. We chat and make it known that we know each other and secretly had a crush on each other. We decide to hang out. I ask her where she lives and I'll pick her up...we live in the same apartment complex. It's a very funny situation. But we hung out last night over a few beers and had a great time. The end.

    My parents told me to come over for dinner last night with the promise of tacos, but when I got there it was vegetable soup. I've never been so disappointed in my life.

    First and Foremost, I fucking love tacos.

    This has been a food I have loved for years and even more in the last year or so. That's when I discovered that I could have tacos with not only beef, but with chicken, chorizo, fish, shrimp, steak or whatever else your beating heart desires. Screw the people who only think tacos should have beef on them. The whole discussion about tacos not being good can fuck off. TACOS ARE THE BEST, SO GET OVER IT. THE SALSA, THE SOUR CREAM, THE LETTUCE. The combinations are limitless. (im looking at you, my taco loving brethren.)

    Tacos will always be in their prime. I was down with the taco from day one. All you new jacks, enjoy it up and get on board with the taco eating. EVERYTHING ABOUT TACOS ARE AWESOME. NOT JUST TACOS, THOSE BURRITOS, THOSE CHALUPAS, THOSE ENCHILADAS ARE BOMB DIGGITY TOO. NO. THIS ISNT A FUCKING DREAM, ITS REAL LIFE.

    Like I always say, a taco a day, keeps the doctor away.
    Oh, and this "taco bell" isnt real Mexican food talk has got to stop. Go eat a delicious taco right now.

    *Shout out to the GreatGreenOne, those tacos last night on instagram were 2 legit to quit homie*

    Alright, here we go. I've got my coffee, sat down at my desk... let's talk about Babby's little temper tantrum.
     
    First and foremost, your post is embarrassing as fuck. Like a lot of your posts lately.
     
    You might be the biggest fucking hypocrite on these forums and it cracks me up. I started to go through your posts just to make sure I wasn't about to go off with the wrong idea, but no, I couldn't even get past the first page of your posts without seeing you be a massive shitlord.
     
    You're mad... about people being mad... about flipping? You've stalked Kanye Kess across the fucking galaxy to shame spiral him for being a flipping wanker. And now you're going to post a VC-wide callout thread about giving people shit for complaining about flipping?  That's not to say I disagree. If it's blatant and shitty, call people out. If someone is selling something for a profit, shut the fuck up and don't buy it - on that point I agree with you.
     
    "When this place was in it's prime" - Dear God where to start with this elitist bullshit. Your post reads like the saddest little hipster temper tantrum from someone who liked VC before it was cool!  Do people complain about a lot of petty bullshit? Yes. And they get called out for it. Do some people get a little SJW tumblr around here and PC police? Yes. Sometimes it's warranted, sometimes it results in some pretty entertaining/enlightening conversations. I guess it's easy to miss that when you think you're so fucking edgy that everyone will laugh and pat you on the back when you go in a thread about how the use of "faggot" as a derogatory term is fucked up and say "lol you are all a bunch of faggots". You are so fucking edgy, man. Congratulations.
     
    As far as "the glory proboards days"  You're so salty about the fucking boobies and butts threads getting locked and deleted. Grow the fuck up. What is wrong with you that you need to come to a forum ABOUT VINYL RECORDS for your spank bank material. Fuck off with that shit.  The internet is literally filled to the overflowing brim with porn, I implore you to go find it elsewhere.
     
    "Lighten the fuck up, and listen to your records" says a guy whose last status update in July was "thinking about just selling everything. havent spun a reciord in months." So why are you here?  You want everyone else to lighten up... but I don't see anyone else writing an "Open letter" crying and whining about the quality of their precious boards.
     
     
    Now let's touch on your "pop punk" comment.  Do people listen to music you think is shitty? Yes. Do people listen to music I think is shitty? Yes. Who fucking cares. Poke fun, and be done with it.  What your comment really speaks to is your fucking elitist ageism nonsense.  You're a fucking month off of 31, dude.  You're posting on the forums of a website that sells My Chemical Romance and Jimmy Eat World represses and you're pissed that there are teenagers here? Grow the fuck up.  Half of your latest posts are you going around insulting Doman and Rezqua, on their fucking pictures and posts. Are you kidding me man? You're so fucking insecure with yourself that you need to go around picking internet fights with people who are LITERALLY half of your age? Am I the biggest fan of some of the stuff those guys posts? NO. But they are a hell of a lot more tolerable than some nearly-31 year old asshole having a mid-life tempter tantrum on VINYL RECORDS forums who doesn't even listen to his own vinyl.
     
    Go join somethingawful or 4chan if you want to post pictures of tits and asses and talk about your sexual adventures every day. I think it's safe to say that these forums aren't the place for it, and everyone is getting pretty tired of your elitist tr00 punX nonsense. 
     
    So, chill out, let other people live their lives, and listen to your records.

    There are components of your rant that are truly justified, Satan: the recent increase of (misplaced) threads dedicated to Fall Out Boy inquiries and Paramore pricing.  The New Bermuda dude who's genuinely upset that his colored wax doesn't match the mockup photo.  The never-ending stream of complaints about shipping costs, corner dings, flipping records, and securing tour variants.  It's nothing new, and it's more than alright to blow off some steam now and then.
     
    However.  You're complaining about what makes VC so tough to browse, some days... but the irony here - if I'm being brutally honest - is that I'd rather read about seam splits and absurd MSRP prices over "VC veterans" grasping for attention.  I've called you out before because you post some of the dumbest try-hard shit I've ever seen on the boards.  Ranging from comments that broadly dismiss everyone's tastes (i.e. "There's a similar discussion to this one going on in the [     ] thread, but none of you would know that because you all listen to shit") to tastefully posting "ya'll are a bunch of faggots" in the middle of a discussion on [homo]sexuality – and why it's not alright to post derogatory comments pertaining to it.  I mean, I get that you're trying to be ironic or witty by attempting to derail topics in the flashiest ways possible.  But it just comes off as "hey guys look at me i'm being all edgy and shit lol".  It's embarrassing, and it induces way more cringes than any number of non-ironic Crosley threads will.  At least for me.
     
    I've been accused of being a VC elitist more than once.  I'm pushing 9,000 posts, I'm aware, and I've been a member for nearly 7 years now, but the majority of those posts (and time) have been spent on niche discussions about music I'm excited for.  I don't regret them.  I do a lot more lurking than posting, and find myself scrapping a huge portion of my posts when I consider the weight of my words and whether or not they're even worth submitting.  [This post, for example, has been considered for deletion at least three times now.]  I was a part of the Proboards just like you were, so, yeah, I've seen some shit.  And I feel like there will always be new topics and members to point and laugh at.  I can't deny that it's nice to have a little fun with the newbies now and then, and I'm all-too guilty of getting in the periodic jab when a redundant questions begs for a sarcastic response.  But there's no reason to continually harass new members past the point of some light initiation hazing.
     
    As far as tastes? – it's all subjective, sure, but you're right: as a collective, this board's tastes are fucking terrible.  There.  I said it.  More and more young people join every week, and there also seems to be a select group of adults who are chomping at the bit for Blink-182 reissues.  It's whatever.  But you need to stop stressing it and just adapt.  I don't even graze the Hot Topic repress threads, because - as snobby as I may sound - I basically have zero interest in 99% of the music that Travis is pressing splatter copies of.  Why rain on someone else's parade, or waste the energy to post something negative in a thread clearly catered to discuss the excitement for a release in a positive environment?  It seems pointless.  Work can get a little boring for me, of course, but there are a million other things to read and interact with, on the world wide web.  Once you develop a knack for letting those threads bubble up to the top of the boards while still tuning them out, it becomes pretty easy to lighten up and care less about the "inferior" music that so much of VC seems to be stuck on.  I love a good discussion on genres, tastes, and what it means to explore new music; even if I poke fun at the folks bouncing off the walls for My Chemical Romance represses, I don't think that I'm somehow better than them because my tastes have "evolved" past "high school drivel".  I just keep on scrolling and find something relevant to my interests.  It's pretty easy.
     
    Members being attacked for their age is just stupid.  I agree that an occasional joke is worth posting when the comedic timing is right, but when users are being ridiculed just for being younger [or older] than the general age pool?  Come on.  DOMAN's in high-school and posts more articulate, relevant replies - that are in line with the forum rules - than a huge portion of new members.  And Don (drds89) is probably old enough to be my dad, but has no shortage of excellent recommendations and positive things to contribute to a lot of quality threads.  Point at hand? – age is moot.  Let it go.  If you really want to keep at it and get nasty, though, we can talk about your sleek "ninja edits", where you go on caps-lock tirades and then proceed to backspace them, leaving a simple "sorry I was drunk" in their place.  Losing your cool to someone half your age, flying off the handle, not having the balls to stick by your initial rant, and blaming it on a mid-day buzz?  That's pretty cool, I guess.  But proceeding to reply with "fuck the fuck right off, you don't know me or my sense of humor" when someone casually calls you out on it – that, right there, is the true essence of pushing 30.  Give me a break, man.
     
    I'm all for healthy, isolated rants and I'm also a sucker for irony.  This topic delivers both in spades.  Sorry if I come off as a condescending prick.  I'm just staying true to the thread's theme, I guess:

    My nightmare has come true that small talk would be thinning out and people would be disappearing.

     

    but thats how it goes. look at members from the past; gone.

     

    its a full circle. there are returns, exits, ups and downs.

     

    i text many. i am willing to always text more if it comes down to that.

     

    i centered this for dramatics and to make it read like a poem.
