I missed that one. Who came in 2nd and 3rd after Birthinghips' house in the Metaverse?
Expensive things that are “worth it”

i was going to post but didn't want to hurt anybody's feelings. it's the holidays, people should be allowed to be happy.
You'd have to ask BC. He's in the top 3 he said. Knowing rifle had to be #1 in the category (like everything else), figured WV-FAN didn't make the cut.
When people say my house is so tiny, I simply tell them I’m saving the planet by being carbon neutral.
I could fit a small diamond mine in my house. Rifle would have a field day.
Edit: I could fit a diamond mine just in my garage… Never mind my house.
with a mini fridge. Look a dorm fridge with an ice maker.
Dr. Hungus, you should carry your weapon on your person, holstered, when hiking. Having it in your backpack means you will only be able to wish you had it when you really need it. It also allows you to control the weapon so that your children can’t get it unless you hand it to them.
When choosing a weapon the main consideration is under what circumstance would you likely need to discharge it? If your fear is large animals then a 9MM isn’t much help unless you just want to make something mad. If it’s people, the 9MM is fine. Personally, I would recommend a revolver for ease of use and safety and bear spray. If you want to be able to kill a bear with a pistol you better get something like a Desert Eagle.

You sound like a fvcking moron when there are people on here who know for sure . . . including you.
If you're too scared about $500k, how about $50k? Too scared for that, too? We can have an attorney draft an agreement, and BC can hold the money.
Stop. Even people who aren't involved are liking my posts calling you out for your obsession of me. Middle-Class Murox the Moron posted about me at least 10 different times when I wasn't on here. As one of the moderators said months ago to me when asking if I ever read the board, ". . . nobody even responds to the posts he makes about you. I think we all think the same thing."
The discussion is about money, namely, the value of the properties.
Murox couldn't afford much of a property in the nicer parts of OC. That's why, even 5+ years after saying he was leaving Huntington because it is a shithole, he is still there.
Why don't you accept any of my wagers, pussy? I'll post overwhelming proof of my complete ownership and/or mortgages of multiple properties all showing values over $400k (including one around $900k and one purchased for more than $1MM). We can put something somebody of your limited means may be comfortable with: $10k.
Oh! It's another conspiracy theory.
You realize that your own friends mock you, right? Hell, I have screenshots of your Facebook (which I'm not even able to access) page your friends have sent me mocking you for the things you post. Want to see some?
I don't own a condo worth anywhere near that much, and certainly not owing anywhere near that much.
Now, I do have two properties worth just under and just over 1MM. But I don't owe anywhere close to that much on either. The first, I only put 5% down on. I think I only owe about $680k on it, and it would sell for $900k. The second, I had to put 20% down on, but that's because 1) I could avoid the jumbo loan rate by putting that much down on it and 2) I had closed 30-some days earlier on the previous property, and I guess lenders don't like seeing that much in loans being provided with little down so close together. I think I owe in the $700s left on that one.
The best part? Sounds like BC has been doing some research and verifying my claims, which means Middle-Class Murox the Moron must be getting really mad seeing proof that I have at least two properties worth 2.5x his house. Doh!
You should hear what they have said about you!!! Keep counting those likes like a 15 year old girl. Good stuff
You really should ignore me and focus on Rox. He is kicking you all over this board making you look a fool.
I've had so many good laughs the last few days. Thank you for those!

That’s what I want. One of those refrigerators that make the craft ice. I want mine to make ice about the size and shape of a one inch ball bearing and perfectly clear.
Yes, please post the screenshots of my friends mocking me. We have 2 mutual acquaintances, so this should be fun.
I mean...I don't think this is on topic any more but....
Shoes - Until I was in my 30's I never paid more than $50-$70 for shoes. Now it's rare that I pay less than $180-$200.
Bed - Last two mattresses have been more than $2K. One was the iComfort. It was ok. I only kept it about 6-7 years. My wife just bought a Saatva last year. So far it has been awesome.
Watch - I have 4-5 really nice watches. My daily wear is a Garmin Fenix 5 smart watch. I'm about to upgrade to the new model.
Sunglasses - I don't really like wearing glasses...including sunglasses but when we moved south I found that the Florida sun hits different. I now wear Maui Jim's, Smith and Costa's on a daily basis. I tried brands like Shady Rays and Blenders but they just aren't the same.
These are generally the only things that I spend a money on that depreciate.
Side note...
Guns - I like Glock and have had a few of them. If you want a gun that will never misfire and is small enough to carry and is easy to shoot I would recommend the Ruger P95 9mm. You can pick one up for $500 or less.

Even if it were true (it’s not), it would just show what a garbage person he is. An alleged “mutual friend” shared something with him in confidence, and ol’ birthinghips is willing to post it publicly for Internet points.
Let’s see it.
my daughter, with my wife's blessing, sneaked 2 pair of air jordan's in on me a couple years ago. $500 for the first pair but they got a discount on the 2nd pair of 50% off. hell of a deal.
when my son turned around age 12 ten years ago, i went on a gun buying spree. we have upwards of 45 or 50 guns at this point which includes a couple glocks, various rifles, shotguns, other handguns, and the coolest two of the bunch (trigger warning, libs), a custom camo'd .300 blackout AR15 and an AR style 9mm pistol.
sunglasses . . . i wear whatever pair i find that someone has lost.
Five hundred bucks for a pair of sneakers?! Doesn’t your town have a Walmart? 😀
I dunno if it was you or not back in 1996, but some a-hole stole my pair of sunglasses during one of the stag luncheons at the AB festival. Ended up getting them back an hour or so later, when somebody un-stole them and snuck them back where us rednecks were hanging out. Mine were prescription sunglasses, and the thief must not have been able to see very good out of them.
wasn't me. only one i've been to was last year, most excellent time. hoors and blow a plenty.
damn, can't believe that was the first one you've gone to. I went for 9 consecutive years when I lived there. Of course, I could stagger home from the festivities. always went to the stag though, as well as the sports breakfast. be drunk for like 4 days in a row back then during the 90s. things have changed dramatically since then, as now it's be drunk 4 days in a row in the 2020s.
don't get me started.
I buy fresh roasted beans each week. Still much cheaper than getting coffee from outside the home, but a lot more than pre ground crap.
I've been enjoying my cousin's roasting lately. He's started a couple years ago and has even won some regional roasting recognition where they live. It's gotten me interested in taking up the craft of roasting my own beans as a hobby.
I've never tried to raost on my own.
I did my own craft beer for a while and got OK at it, but the pros were better. I kind of felt that it would go that way with coffee if I dabbled in roasting my own beans . though over the past couple of years I think quality of some of my favorite roasters has really gone downhill. My favorite now (Onyx) is insane expensive IMO.
Custom-tailored suits are definitely worth it if you can afford it. Even an untrained eye can spot a store-bought, off-the-rack suit compared to a suit that is custom fit to your body.
The last thing you'd want to do is find yourself on stage with 4 other men wearing tailored suits and you're wearing a store-bought suit from Macy's with pants 3” too long and square toe dress shoes, having to photoshop the earpiece from your ear so people don't mistake you for a security guard.

only people i ever knew that wears square toe dress shoes wear them so they don't roll their ankles while blowing their boss.
You really should have emphasized "untrained eye" more, as you're clearly out of your league like usual, Middle Class Murox. It's a $4000 Gucci suit. I have to buy two suits each year for holiday parties, and the third holiday party I have to go to I try to go more informal.
You cant buy a Gucci suit without having to tailor it, as they're all unhemmed. So as you can see, this suit has been tailored:
The pants aren't too long. You clearly don't know the types of breaks you can request from a tailor. This, as are almost all of my tailored pants, are "full break." It's best for looser fitting pants and is the most classic of suit pant looks. Here, educate yourself:
"A full break is indicated by a significant amount of fabric pooling and folding at the ankle and a wider leg opening width. This is the most old-school and traditional of the break options, and works for looser fitting trousers and people with a more traditional style. To achieve a full break, the length of the trousers should reach well beyond the ankles to at least midway down the back of the shoe, and the opening width should be wide enough for the leg opening to fit around the laces."
https://propercloth.com/reference/what-is-pant-break/"
Now, what your severely untrained eye may be seeing is the pant legs getting caught on boots, as seen in this picture, which makes the break look more severe:
They're Gucci boots. I don't recall how much, but I am guessing $1000+. As is usually the case when I am not in sweats or jeans and a T, I get compliments on just about everything I wear, including the boots . . . the owner of the event planning company couldn't stop talking about this outfit and even made her husband, a middle-aged black guy, come look so she could get him the same style. Her words to him were "if a white guy can pull this off and look so good in it, then I know that you can, too." It's commonplace: something you never have to worry about, plaid shorts boy.
By the way, see the black think in the background behind and between the boots? It is a bowl that belonged to Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
This just shows the lack of intelligence you have. If I had to photoshop the earpiece so people wouldn't "mistake me for a security guard," then they wouldn't be mistaking me for a security guard. I would be a security guard, Murox the Moron, so they wouldn't be making a mistake.
Really, it's shocking how dumb you have gotten over time. Alzheimer's is something you should be concerned about.
How many times do they let the security guard give speeches at one single event?
I probably had to take pictures with 100 people this night. I am used to it though thanks to the times you and @Archetype XLIV would ask to take a picture with me when you guys would see me.
Yeah, don't fvck the girls who just want your money. Do what you did and marry the girl who just wants a green card.
While in college, I worked holidays and summers at a middle end men’s store. We were instructed on marking four types of breaks on dress pants. It was usually the preference of the customer, but we did try to talk some out of wanting their pants hemmed 3” above the shoe.
Did you get your “Gucci boots” at Saks off 5th?
Btw, love the faux wood vinyl floors. Beautiful. Exactly what I expected from a billionaire.
I'm not going to hate on the suit, but for fvck sake, ditch the turtleneck. That's not a good look.
Good batteries. Either Duracell or Energizer preferred. Worth it.
Clothes snobs, home snobs, shoe snobs, coffee snobs, battery snobs . . . Coming to this board is like visiting Palm Beach.
I miss the low class, cheap beer posters who once hung out here.
