Not to burst bubbles here, but police would probably consider this a civil case versus criminal. I doubt they'd do anything. You willingly sent him the comics.

That was my initial thought and posted that in the original thread. As more information has come out though, I think a criminal case “could” be made but it would be up to a jurisdiction willing to move forward with it.

Thinking that it won't result in Mike giving Matt the comics is a little different than calling it a horrible idea. I know it's not a certainty that Mike will cooperate, but I don't see the harm in knocking on the man's door and politely discussing the matter. I don't believe anyone here is expecting a shotgun blast thru the front door.

I believe Chip mentioned people were concerned for Matt's safety. I don't recall anyone saying that, but IMO, that's a result of people watching too many cop movies.

 

In the end it's Matt's decision. If he feels comfortable doing it, he should do it. It's been a lot of wheel spinning and b!tching up till this point, time for a little action.

 

My fear wouldn’t be physical but some sort of false accusation.  We have seen his comments so far and they are concerning.

I loved it a first until the Taylor character became tedious to me.

I don't really care for the Scream franchise. I thought Scream 1 was okay and 2-4 were trash but I had nothing to watch so I watched Scream 5 and that way okay and I really like 6. They  went in a weird direction with that one. So I was actually waiting for Scream 7. Both Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega had interesting characters. Unless they bring Melissa and  Jenna back just reboot Scream again.

The interesting thing about Scream is that they don’t need to even reboot. Anyone can pick up the mask and carry it on so they could have a brand new cast within the same continuity. 
 

I actually love the series. I am not really a fan of Jenna but I really liked Melissa (and Hayden). 

The right thing to do is buy one $50 book get one $50 book free, the same with the $3 books.  What I figure they will do, is charge you a $100 and give you $6 worth free.

What constitutes a pickle lover??  Is there a scale we can use to weed out the pickle liker’s from the lovers?

Maybe?

Yeah I would be in the anti pickle category and I love a good pickle. 

To be fair, my stance is that signs have no relevance on pickle loving. However, to prove Vintage wrong I decided to let the Astrology sites decide and they claim Virgos are anti-pickle so he can now send me a Grillo’s package.

Total BS, as I'm an Aries and I love pickles. No jokes, please. 

I know nothing about signs but i pulled it from an Astrology site. It was easy to prove Vintage wrong. I think that makes me 5 and 0 on bets.

Ok, I’m losing track of this thread… is it bad movies or good pickles that are killing comic book stores in 2023?

Pickles for sure.

I'll bet you a jar of pickles Virgos out number other signs when it comes to loving pickles.

You can send them tomorrow. Thanks!

I bet they outnumber others in loving nuts (or being one)!

Just kidding. I'm now going to have to try them. I happen to love pickles, and in my experience most Virgos do. Not scientific, but I have a large cross section of data to support it!

Now is there ANYONE who disagrees with what I posted today?

Yes, every “sign” loves pickles, nothing special about Virgos!

He just logged on Wednesday morning….

Oh man….. I remember when he first got here and discovered slabs.

I've watched enough Andy Griffith's to dread when that episode comes on, because they have scenes depicting eating the Kerosene pickles throughout the episode that it feels like I'm experiencing them to the death of me. Literally came on back to back weeks (and in the background) that it made me not want to check if there are Griffith shows I've not seen  even typing this is very cathartic! 

Then they buy more pickles to make Aunt Bee feel better  

Just wash my mouth out with soap already  

“Shooo Fly…..He’s dead!” 
 

One of my top 5 episodes,  

I recently discovered Grillo’s Pickles and they are delicious. A step above Aunt Bee’s Kerosene Cucumbers for sure.

I did not consult Chip, no. I'm very much regretting what I've done, and feel terrible. 

I know you had good intentions.

Mental Health should be treated and not ignored but it doesn’t provide an excuse or erasure of past actions.

I can’t help but wonder something. If a list that is rarely looked at or referenced unless needed is bad for one’s mental health then how about this thread?

There is no way this thread was not going to bring up all the bad things from the past.

Was Chip consulted before opening this thread about him?

I feel that this is one of those things done with good intentions but no thought behind it. It may make a few posters feel better about themselves but at what expense to Chip….the one we are supposed to be “caring” about?

Scream 7 is having a lot of major casting issues this week.  

As we saw in Scream 6, Neve Campbell wasn’t in it because she said they wouldn’t pay her what she deserved after 25 years in the franchise.

The new two lead stars became Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega. This week Melissa was fired for possible Pro-Palestine comments and Jenna said she will not return due to filming Wednesday. 
 

As much as I like Hayden, I am not for sure she can carry the movie with a new cast. They better plan on paying Neve.

my concern was just for his wellbeing, but I do think he's a new man and that in and of itself is a beautiful thing and worth commending. 

That’s truly the only thing that matters and great to hear.

Stop derailing the thread! 

This is a worthy derail, not one about what type of shampoo you used last week.   (Do you even use shampoo in that hair?)

I don't believe he'd sell here again. I merely honestly believe he's a changed man, and may deserve to be removed from the HOS. I say may as it's not my decision. But I believe he is ready. I am just as surprised as you, but he really has changed. He is no longer that person. 

That’s good to hear. I am glad he has changed and happier in life. I wish him the best, seriously. I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing him post again as he has a lot of knowledge.  He can stay on the HOS though. 

On 11/21/2023 at 5:48 PM, Cat said:

If I believe he's a changed man, which I do, can I petition for him to be removed from the HOS? What he did was horrible, no doubt about it, but I genuinely believe he is not that person anymore. And yes, I was extremely skeptical of him and his motives. 

You want him to be able to sell here again??
