POP is actually a Marxist conspiracy to get kids to learn the “rules” and practice flipper “discipline.” Everything is “free” to the kids, but somebody has to pay, right? Those that “have” must give to those with no “means.” Might as well mark the tokens as rubles.

No joke man, this TPP stuff that’s in the news made me think of Homepin and their Thunderbirds project at first. So that’s how mangled this hobbie’s got me.

I really hope someone sees this and decides to do a project pin.

Edit: Convert a Hercules, because a Trump pin would have to be HUGE!

I’ve concluded my investigation into the massive player fraud. The evidence is overwhelming. From here on out, all tournament players must:

  • Wear a heart monitor, with a little speaker attached so we can hear their heartbeat and confirm that they’re alive.
  • Upon registering for a tournament, they must show ID.
  • Must be able to sign their name and birthdate with flourish (this will help ensure that they’re not impersonating someone, since it’s well-known that impersonators will struggle to sign a fake name).
  • When signing up, all players must stare deep into the eyes of the TD and pledge allegiance to Gorgar, the demi-God of pinball.

Place your left hand on the rulebook, repeat after me;

You got me Gorgar
Beat me you
Me beat Gorgar
You hurt me
