    I personally enjoy the Synapse reaper, and I don’t find the price tag to be too unreasonable. But again, that’s just me personally. However, the amount of people that leave both blatant and passive “pick me” comments is just gross. Enter the lotto and fuck off, please. It’s like people are pleading their cases for why they deserve to win, goddamn.

    And what's up with these chumps re-posting lottery details? The sofubi tag was flooded with the same screenshot of this reaper thing yesterday afternoon with numerous variations of the phrase "pick me pick me"... don't they realize that keeping things on the downlow would increase their chances? Or are these hypebeasts that desperate for likes and approval that they are resorting to reposting a hot-shit toy that hasn't even been released yet? ....or is it a way for the elusive FTC flipper toy cartel to sound the alarm to the other sleeper cells that dollar signs are on the horizon

    I've wondered about that too. Some of these accounts are basically all just reposts, mostly of manufacturer shots for lottos. I really don't get it. It has to be just buying into massive levels of hype; why would you want other people getting in and lowering you and your crew's chances?

    I think people repost the shit out of stuff as an additional means of "look how badly I want this! I'm reposting your shit!" Lottos that require you to repost personally annoy the shit out of me, too. Giveaways and contests make a little more sense, though I can't exactly explain to myself why. But I've seen so many reposts of artists lottos and releases with a variation of the caption "I hope to win this time *prayer hands emoji*"

    Giveaways are to generate interest for future releases I think; I see them most often with relatively new artists. That way every entrant's followers see your stuff and know the name.

    Maybe it's the difference between being free and costing money. It's not enough that you're willing to pay for the toy (provided you win/get the opportunity to buy), but there's the extra steps involved to get to that point.

    If it's free? Sure, why not?

    I sometimes enter those repost contests, but I also go back and delete the pic later to not clog my feed up, unless it's pretty cool looking. There's some old naked flesh Mockbat giveaway pics that I lego-ized that I left in my feed...but that's 3 or 4 years ago?

    @spatula007 Thats a very good point! I guess I just don’t see the point in a repost being a part of the entry process? Especially when they’re already getting your name and other info as it is, and as you mentioned, just clogs up feeds.

    Reposts for lotto entries are diabolical. They get you to line up for a toy that you may or may not get to actually buy which creates hype because other people end up thinking it's going to be impossible to get and just for the chance at their toy you have to advertise their product to all your friends, family, followers. The entire network you have managed to build on your IG becomes theirs even if just momentarily. It's like going to a restaurant that makes you line up outside but you also have to leave a positive yelp review before you get inside and they randomly tell 75% of the people in line to go home after leaving the positive review anyway. Pretty fucked.

    The repost for a giveaway is totally different though. That is just people trying to win something. Their is an actual prize, not just the "gift" of being allowed to spend your hard earned money on someone's toy. You want to win this toy you just share it is pretty easy to swallow compared to you want to buy this toy you have to share it.

    Simple. Free advertising
    That giveaway was the only repost deal I participated in and deleted the pics after it was over. Twists and tweaks some entrants did on the flesh Bat posts were neat and eased the monotony of seeing the same pic over-and-over during those good ol' chronological feed days.

    Main gripe with mandatory repost lotteries is those with a private IG don't have a shot unless the artist follows you. There is one newer toy I'd love to own but likely won't because of the repost stuff. It's a bummer but whatevs.

    Giveaways are okay because the repost hundreds or thousands of times kind of pays them for the tangible item they are giving away. The repost can turn into more interest, or website visits which is potential buys perhaps.

    I don’t like the repost to lotto the opportunity to buy. Or repost in order to buy. I’ve did it before though, and kind of hope i don’t have to again.

    the 1994 clinton weapon ban penned by diane feinstein didn't stop the columbine shooters, & neither eric nor dylan were of age to buy their guns legally even if the evil tec9 wasn't already on the ban list. the columbine shooters believed the majority of casualties would come from the 99 bombs they made, which would probably have prompted legislation to declare schools as bomb free zones. I haven't checked the laws but there is a good chance explosive devices are already illegal, which coincidentally did nothing to dissuade the boston marathon bombers, the unibomber, the american airlines flight 63 shoe bomber, or anyone else.

    In the case of the florida shooting, the government failed on many levels. Local law enforcement had contact with this kid dozens of times but he was never charged to protect Broward county crime stats. The FBI were aware of his terroristic threats & ignored them. The school security officer recognized the shooter & saw he had large duffel bags but failed to confront him. The police chose not to enter the building to intervene despite active shooter protocol to do exactly that. Bottom line, it is unrealistic to believe new laws will have any impact when existing ones aren't being enforced.

    Fuck being in the hospital and being told you need a blood transfusion AND a bone marrow transplant. My life just keeps getting better! I feel like Cool Hand Luke digging and filling that ditch.

    I’m sorry sir that’s policy blahblahblahblah...

    Fine. I’ll send corporate an email.

    I’m sorry you didn’t like the shampoo but we can’t issue a refund without receipt.

    Today has been the third time a recruiter messaged me after 1-2 rounds of interviews saying the position was already filled and they wouldn't be able to keep interviewing me until they had headcount in a few months. Every time I get told they haven't checked with their director/manager yet and will get back to me, but most likely it's a yes. And then it's not. I wish people didn't waste my time.

    How Skullbrain conversations go:
    Me: What's your favorite shade of blue?
    Person One: Teal.
    Person Two: Navy.
    Person Three: I hate the color blue.
    Person Four. Red is definitely better than blue.
    Person Five. My grandmother had a blue couch. I loved that couch. I almost bought a blue sofa as an adult but my husband wanted a brown one. Now, I can't get him off that thing.
    Person Six. I'm with the person who said red. Blue is such a sad color.
    Person Seven: People need to learn their colors. Teal is more green than blue.
    Me: Thanks to the two people who simply answered the question. I'm just looking up paint colors and needed some ideas.
    Person Three: You don't have to be nasty. This is a public post. We can say what we want to say.
    Me: *deep sigh* *erases: "yeah, but the specific question was..."*
    Person Eight: I'm just here for the comments.
    Person Nine: What do you mean by favorite. Because a person can love several shades equally...
    Me: *throws the whole question and all of the people away*

    LMAO.
