I don't know who the hell you think you are quoting, because no where in that post is that said. You read it however your tiny little mind can process, but I assure you that wasn't the intended point. If you wanna play games with me and be a ****, fine let's go, I'm always down to rumble and an attention seeking **** in a sexy santa's suit doesn't intimidate me in the slightest.

Maybe if half the vocal population wasn't cupping your balls because of your silly antics and entertaining and informative podcasts (of which I am also a fan, you are getting to be a great interviewer) maybe you wouldn't feel so entitled to see others struggles in a self serving light.

Let's break down your post there buddy.

Title: [LF] A plea to GH for an MX Clack at cost

A PLEA (a request made in an urgent and emotional manner). urgent and emotional, as if you NEED this MX clack in order to survive, you NEED this clack to validate your existence on this forum.

Quote
A whim, a plea, a tale of misfortune. Call it what you will, but I assure you this nothing short of heartbreaking, bordering on the ludicrous and frankly at this point, laughable.

heartbreaking. yes, it's so terrible a poor little forum member can't get a click clack.

laughable. of course, everyone is laughing at noisyturtle because he doesn't have a clack like the cool kids. what a loser.

I'll give you misfortunate and this whole post was definitely ludicrous.

Quote
As many of you know my Clack luck is bad to say the least. Perhaps the worst on the entirety of Geekhack, unless one of you can challenge my standing record of despair. I have, and this is in no way an embellishment, lost out on 14, yes 14, Clack sales in the past two years.

This is where you piss me off, and where the entitlement goes to level 11. You justify your "urgent, emotional, heartbreaking, and laughable" request with, "I've lost out 14 times in a limited sale"

Dear friend, this is what is called luck. This is what's called life. It's not fair, I'm so sorry you have to learn this so late in life.

[Insert some fluff post]

Quote
Save for my very first Clack(mint green) which CC himself was kind enough to dibs me with shortly after joining, I have never paid less than $100 for a clack. These prices are not uncommon in the aftermarket, but I seem to be unlucky there as well having only accumulated 3 skull buddies in that manner.

Then once again. Yes, you were a noob and you were lucky and you got a clack. Remember that feeling, do you recall how wonderful it was, to get that email from CC himself "Send me your paypal, you got in the sale"

I remember that, it was quite the achievement for myself to have gotten one so early on at my time at geekhack.

That's unfortunate that you've encouraged people who charge $100 for something they got for a 1/3 of the price, but I really hope you got ones you wanted, and didn't just "settle" for what was still on sale because of the fact it's a clack.

Quote
On top of all this, there's only a short list of clacks I actively search for (milk blue, limoncello, teal, gum purp) and these as many of you know full well are exceedingly rare and my trade thread is quickly approaching it's one year anniversary. Depressing for a myriad of other reasons.

More entitlement... "I've been looking for over a year for one of these clacks." so. what. everyone looks for stuff, not everyone finds what they want. That doesn't make you any better than anyone else, you keep on trying, you bug people who post pictures of what you want until they tell you to **** off. You don't go cry about how you're sooooooooo unlucky and the "laughing stock" of everyone else who gets clacks. Mostly because it's just not true.

[More ****posting and begging]

[picture of puppy]

Ok, so I hope you can understand my side of your post a little bit more.

As for my tiny little mind, I'll have you know, my head is quite filled and I think I would definitely qualify as having an average if not above average mind size, which is why I'm able to look past a piece of plastic and see the disgusting underside and drama they cause. I'm sorry you are unable to see this yourself, perhaps if you did, you wouldn't be such an angry person.

Yeah, I'll agree with you there, I'm a ****, but I usually have good intentions.

Attention ****, I am not, I'm sorry that I like to have fun at my own expense, but as a slightly overweight guy you kinda have to do those things to get attention, I mean, I'm not that funny, I'm not that clever, but guess what, check out this picture of me in women's clothing, hilarious right.

My intentions were not to intimidate you, only to make you realize how much of a douche you are coming off as.

I really wish people would cup my balls more often, it's quite chilly this little part of the world, and my hands can only do so much. Have you ever thought perhaps the reason the vocal population cups my balls is because I've been making an active effort to be nice to people, not tell them things such as:

Seriously, why even ask us if you're just gonna make one? My level of giving a **** stops at that **** being unobtainable.

I have a feeling many of you would claim interest even if he made a brobot out of orangutan turds and hedgehog jizz, but how many would actually wind up buying one for $200?

Those two comments pushed me over the edge for you. You'll ride CC's **** all day but the second someone else tries to stir up discussion in THEIR OWN SUBFORUM, apparently they're in the wrong and just craving the attention.

It's these reasons I made a mockery of your post, not because I'm entitled and "blind" to other people's struggle

Because honestly, if not having a piece of plastic is a serious struggle in your life, you might want to seek some professional help.

And honestly, **** you again, once again this post you made shows how much of an entitled little **** you are. Thinking I've never had the clack depression, I just don't go whine to everyone seeking attention like you did, I just keep that **** to myself and say "oh well, maybe next sale"

A lot of people seem to think I hate clickclack and the work he does, but that is not true, I hate everyone who see's the work he does as essential part of their life, and need validation from other people based off how many skull faces they have. That **** pisses me the **** off. I mean look at people with huge collections like eth0s, you don't see him going from vendor forum to vendor forum telling people how ****ty their products are and asking why they are even trying to gauge interest in their terrible products because noone will buy it anyways.

It's just people like you, who get one random act of kindness done upon them and then all of a sudden they are king of the ****ing geekhack world, and all the other plebs who didn't get an OG from clickclack are just trash under your feet.

I just want to let you know how you're presenting yourself around the forum and to other members.

I mean ****, I just remembered, even other people who got hit with "the lasers" aren't as ****ed in the head as you who go parading around the forum with their prize displayed as their avatar, they just treat it as "oh wow, that was really nice of clickclack to give me this, I really love his work" instead of you who are all "LOL LOOK WHAT I GOT YOU ****ING NOOBS, AND I NEVER EVEN GOT IN A SALE, GOD YOU ALL ****ING SUCK SO MUCH ****"

It's really ****ing annoying and disrespectful to both other members and clickclack himself.

and yet... you call ME blind to other people's suffering...

I'm not telling you to **** off, I'm asking you to be more humble to yourself and other members of the forum.

Kirkles, that is the most beautiful thing I have read in a long while. Excellent post.

I really just don't see the need for the Clacks. They're certainly nice looking, but they're just key caps at the end of the day. It's sad that they cause so much drama.

When I joined Geekhack I got excited about having clacks. But the way in which they are sought after, fought over, begged for, and used to make a quick buck just made me lose all interest. Not to take anything away from the creator. They look good and he is doing a great job.

The desire to own clacks just diminished the more things that happened that I found pretty damn icky. I mean look at this @$% thread.

Now who wants to buy my mr. Friday? I need the money for a plane ticket to go visit my dying brother in Guatemala (scout's honor). Where the hell Rarar at yo.

Your edit can't fool me. I know you wanted to sell it for $40.

I offer $35, you predator.

That was meant as a compliment you petulant child, and the fact that you read it as a diss is telling. It was meant to imply that MMB's work has come so far that the poll is superfluous because what he makes would sell anyway. I'm done with this little tiff, you have at it.  :blank:

As for the other thread: I suppose the fact that so many others received kindness from members, and CC himself through my '*****ing' means nothing to you unless you got lasered upon as well. Nice.
