Ok.. What the neck is the guy on the left holding?  His grin says it all

It's the season for charity, so can anyone help out this person with their concern?

"Hello everyone, soon-to-be North Korean here! I have some dietary concerns regarding my future relocation.
Due to my autism, I exclusively eat chicken goujons, colloquially known as Chicken Tenders. I also only drink Mountain Dew.
When it comes to tendies, I’m not too picky. I enjoy Hardee’s, KFC, Rasing Cane’s, Popeye’s, Wendy’s, and Bojangles. But I need a side of honey mustard, of course.
You see, if I don’t get my tendies, I will have a meltdown. I’ll scream and shout and make a fuss. I’ll scratch, I’ll bite, I’ll even cuss!
I also expect the tendies to be free, of course. My bitch KKKapitalist mom makes me earn “good boy points” in order to obtain my precious tendies. She’ll force me into slavery by making me mow the grass and pick up my pee jugs.
I’m sure our dear leader appreciates chicken tendies. If so, which fast food joint does he prefer? Will I be able to get them for free without cleaning my pee jugs?"

Do they even have chickens on NK?
I mean the poultry, not the enlisted men.

I am sure folks who know art could tell me why we can look at something and instantly know if its from the 60-80s, think its cool and want to showcase it. I'm not fanatical about any music but this is still cool. (Peter Frampton's "Do you feel like we do" asside.)

I assume you are poking fun at the CGC grading, but in case you arent , CGC is fairly limited to what they grade, and they grade the item, not the seal.  AFA does seem to create custom cases and they just grade the seal of a lot of products, so they might.

I think that is nonsense.

Let's drop the political discussions please.  There's about a million other outlets where we can entertain those.

O’Bummer…. Sorry couldn’t help myself.  I 100% agree.  I come here to escape political news… not rehash it.  Has anyone seen Godzilla Minus One?

Fair enough, it's your site. But there is a reason why I've leaned increasingly into off-topic posts on this forum in recent years. There's nothing else to talk about anymore. This forum used to be about the history of D&D, plus the economics of collecting it. Now it's all about the money & little else. Look at this thread from about a year ago, regarding a book containing old-school material:

Lost Dungeons of Tonisborg - Considering Investment

Many of the Acaeum regulars seemed hostile to the idea of discussing the history surrounding it, insisting instead that it is only worthwhile if it's a good investment. Or this thread on the rarely visited JG   forum:

Judges Shield

To paraphrase the original post, we've forgotten about the really good stuff, because it's not worth a lot of money. When the current economic boom in D&D collecting inevitably declines, we'll have nothing left.

p.s. No, I haven't seen Godzilla Minus One, been too distracted by the real godzillas of Gaza. More like godzilla minus ten thousand burning children.

It is amusing watching the reaction though, when someone realises they have been believing what their television tells them and that what their anchorperson of choice says for this long has been BS.
Now they are either going to have to go and hide and pretend this never happenned, so their world view isn't affected, or they are going to wonder what else they learned to believe from their TVs that also might not be true, and that's a challenging rabbit hole to go down.
