The biggest magic trick of all is to get people to give you money based on nothing

Yea, that's been my problem for decades. No luck so far.

It could also imply "to the mass market"
I don't care. I want magic in my mailbox every month without thinking. There you go, I said it. Oh, one condition, by those named in the ad. Michael Weber is excited! He is pretty low key ok? If he is excited then I am jumping up and down over here. My money is in, it's gone, start this train rolling, "ALL ABOARD" ROLLING ROLLING ROLLING!!!!!!! sorry, James Quote: On 2012-03-14 19:55, FrenchDrop wrote:

Get your flame retardant suit on man you are going to need it. I said the same thing, and anyone who supports this is either affiliated with RS or just not that business savvy. Or just not that bright and has money to burn. Probably a combination. But geady to get quoted and attacked by the sheeple. But at least I was able to get a lot discussion brewing, and as someone mentioned this thread would be pretty boring otherwise. Just the same people saying over and over how "excited they are" over a mystery product. I think I will just let this thread die, or let someone else take over entertaining the old, mature men. You are the chosen one now.

I bet if they cancelled RS as part of their "changed terms", and with no refunds, all the supporters in this thread would still be ecstatic. "Thank you RS anyway for the possibility of this all! It was fun while it lasted! I will keep auto-billing intact to express my sincere appreciation!"

I was thinking he came up with that number by taking his actual age and adding 10 years...but given the sophistication of his "humor," I think I was giving him too much credit. Maybe he got 27 by taking his age and doubling it.

Basically the guy is a total numpty. A self-diagnosing proctologist, (as I said on another thread), his mouth and ears are full of his own ****. It's strangely compelling, like watching a mangy rat fall into a tub of dayglo paint, then comedically fall over a series of painful obstacles, before finally gruesomely expiring in an extraordinarily violent and protracted scenario.
Hopefully. No vested interest in RS, just heartily sick of the Café's answer to Holden Caulfield. Blech. |
