Five hours of line waiting was NOT how I wanted to start my weekend. #magicconatlanta
If you ever wanted to know what a secret lair line looked like IRL. Peep the Official Store line for Magic Con Atl
@mtgfestivals.com a MOB into an escalator choke point is a terrible way to run a queue. You've done this too many times to drop the ball like this
My wife & I were having a debate on who would tell our daughter what's cool, she said it'd be her. I said, why are we letting the most uncool person in our relationship make those calls? To prove how uncool she is, I pointed out that she married a guy that makes Magic the Gathering content. Me rn:
Did I black out and miss a Dave Chappelle and Chris Rick sketch?? They just showed up for the close?! #snl
Reminder for my theatre kids this Halloween season; you HAVE to watch Rocky Horror or the actual ghost of Tim Curry will haunt you in fishnets, a corset, and pearls. Don't dream it, be it.
21 minutes and sold out. There is still a problem with Secret Lair
I've seen Magic games that lasted longer than Katie Zacharia's role as Press Secretary
Damn, we got the sitting US President bribing the public for votes before we got GTAVI
My Fitness Pal: saying "scanning will give you better results" then charging for the service is pretty pathetic. Especially when you're trying to help people eat better
Since I wasn't able to grab the FIAB I'm looking for that promo utopia sprawl for anyone going to Amsterdam!
SECRET LAIR: yet another terrible experience. Glad I burned 90 minutes today doing it.
Wow. Way to go, because of an "internal error" I'm out over $100 and no Festival in a Box. THIS SYSTEM SUCKS
What an interesting way to find out I'm officially sponsored by Ultimate Guard (I'm not)
New version of Commander. It's basically the same as regular Commander, but before your turn you draw a Kings Cup card and follow those rules. Oh and there's booze. I call it Commander & Kings.
The Bear makes me miss everything that drove me nuts working in restaurants.
If you're a restaurant/ bar manager that hates sales reps popping in, and prefers email scheduled meetings; respond to your emails! I'm all for playing your game, but if you don't respond to my emails and texts, I'm still going to show up.
Peace up, A-Town <Insert synth into to Usher's 'Yeah' here> Coming to Atlanta to jam some B4 games, and probably do a few shots of tequila
This is How You Lose the Time War is easily the best book I've read this year. It's prose stripped me to the core.
If you see this, post your bird art!

My Pride Commanders: Ashling the Limitless + Animar The Ur Dragon + Morophon Zada Hedron Grinder + Witherbloom the Balance I'm begging someone to build Koma + Belatross
Been reading a bunch of SJM and this is what I'm currently feeling.
And they'll keep doing it until we stop giving them a reason to. It's almost embarrassing. $900?
My new hobby, finding stores on tcgplayer to never buy from.
