I opened up 17 thesaurus packs... and I got 3 grapes of wrath!
-
tradesies?
-
Nice hax. Out of all the TEXP packs I have opened, I haven't gotten any of the super valuable cards :(.
On the other hand, I still haven't opened any TEXP packs.
-
tradesies?
No... that's why this is on off topic. ;) ;D
-
Wow. I opened 24 TexP packs and didn't get any Grapes of Wrath. :(
-
I was about to say wow that was an amazing book then I saw TexP packs and I got sad :(

To tout his good fortune, I'd presume.

The wrath comes later if you eat too many. ;)
-
LOL. nice.
-
I just thought it was really cool how many I got... sheesh... like all these off topic threads contribute to society. ::)
-
most do. boasting usually does not.
-
Wow... I really didn't think that sharing my luck with you guys was boasting. Apparently when something cool happens, if you try to share it with the redemption community it's boasting. I didn't know that. I'll make sure to keep anything cool that happens to me to myself in the future. Thanks for the advice. :(
-
No, it's totally boasting. Because your acquisition of these cards is somehow directly related to your awesomeness. You caused it to happen and it wasn't just a fortunate pull.
/sarcasm
-
KChief's just cranky because of all the Crucify Him's and Great Mourning's he pulled. ;)
-
@Schaef, Yeah... it's an old trick I learned from a guy who used to work at a game store near my house... it's called the "Buddha rub." You rub the pack against your belly and then open it. You get good luck every time!

not applicable. He's not rich and again, he did nothing to earn these. He just opened the packs.
Chill out.
-
completely applicable. you dont have to be 'rich' in wealth to be rich in anything. whether he earned it or not also has nothing to do with boasting about it. i really dont care either way, im just giving him a hard time about it.
on another note, i find it odd 'foolish boasting' is not listed in the REG.
-
That has everything to do with boasting. That's what boasting is: vocal self-praise or claims to superiority over others.
Foolish Boasting is not in the REG cause it doesn't do anything. Cards are only listed in the REG if they have a special ability to define/categorize, or if they are listed peripherally as having a certain identifier or attribute.

i have 3, ps3's.
not boasting?
-
Did you get them through your own efforts, and do you think those efforts make you better than someone else?
-
how i got them is completely irrelevant. why does it matter? it has nothing to do with pride in possession. allow me to finish your definition for you:
Synonyms:
1, 2. Boast, brag imply vocal self-praise or claims to superiority over others. Boast usually refers to a particular ability, possession, etc., that may be one of such kind as to justify a good deal of pride.
the means is apparantly irrelevant. it has nothing to do with the act of bragging about your possessions.
-
um, yeah, the means are entirely relevant. Why do you think the possessions are worth bragging about?
The Bible says we are saved through grace by faith, not by works... lest any man should boast. Sounds like the means matter.
And of course, you'd rather argue about that than just answer the question.
-
i have 3, ps3's.
not boasting?
I also have this cake.

It's a lie

now you may be trying to cover your lack of the ps3 by buying a wii. you may even say that playing the wii is just as much fun as playing ps3. this is obviously the talk of someone who does not...have 3 ps3's.

I'm done entertaining this nonsense.
