I'll make an exception if it's used with a qualifier, such as - "he's the GOAT of dunking," or " he has the GOAT arm I've ever seen."

Even though I think you're the GOAT of Packers fans?

I'd say my gears get ground when there's 20 polls all asking slightly different versions of the same question.

And ya know... what contributes to a lot of these is the 'victim of the moment' reactions that so many have, and the inability to process more than one piece of information.

As a Mahomes fan, I've fully accepted that every loss he has the rest of his career will bring about claims that the QB who beat him has or is ready to surpass him on the QB hierarchy.

Heck, I remember reading an article before the AFC Championship game last year that Josh Allen has already surpassed him. We see how that went. I fully expect much more of that if the Bills win this weekend.

The inane back and forth banter between a few select members. Nothing personal, it's just annoying to see a thread that interests you has a lot of new posts, only to find out it's another goofy back and forth from the same members.

The arguing between know it all’s that think they’re better than everyone is my favorite part of blowout

Nothing bothers me about this forum. It’s just random opinions from random people across the world.

Don't even remember what we were arguing about.. but I'm sure I was right and you were wrong

Personally I like the internet tough guy attitude when they get into arguments......I’m going to post this on my social media account and get you banned bro...... Hillarious absolutely hillarious.....The other thing is the kids who have been in the hobby for about ten minutes who think that cards are a new form of currency....oh and another thing if you mention something about a player or have a question they accuse you of pumping......Or people who are asked a single question and just continue to write a book about........My bad

This annoys me too. Especially when it’s a really dumb topic where there wouldn’t be a second one anyway

Relatively "new" members that all seem to congregate around the new/hip grading threads. Just can't think of a better image to describe them other than late teens/early 20s pelican casers full of tuxedos w/ the side hustle being flipping NFT Prizm gifs back and forth. Perhaps my least favorite part about the hobby in the past 18 months.

thecardscout · 10-05-2021, 10:57 PM

when people use the word cesspool. Get over yourself lol
