Okay kids lets have some fun but no fighting and hands to yourselves!!!

[Raulandpinboy]

This boards needs some controversy and I think we all need a laugh since its been raining and we're all in a gloom funk.

So I'll start the fight…. Errr discussion, but lets keep it clean and fun, at the first sign of mud slinging I'll ask my moderator friends to kill the thread.

So in your opinion who makes a better pin trader men or women or do kids have us both beat…

Now tell me why.

The bets are in I give this thread ½ hour of life span.

Geez, no one is responding, Ed. Maybe this one is DOA??? Or would that be DOP (Dead On Posting)?

Or maybe we expect really off the wall stuff from you, Ed, and this is too on the wall.

 

[Raulandpinboy]

I'll be a brave little toaster.

Women make better traders cause they know what they want and just get right to the chase.

Most of the time they are trading for somebody else anyway.

Ed,
That's what I need is a "Trading Wench"!
Notice:
I will be accepting resumes for the position of "Trading Wench". The applicant must be able to make any trade that I require. She must have "half a brain" (which would be "maxed out" for women) and be built like a brick house. Feminists need not apply.

Chas,
you have such a way with words. I bet you say that to all your women. They must be falling all over themselves to be your favorite.
I would volunteer to be your trading wench but I can't trade for two people. I am already Leslie's pin pimp. Yes. that is what she calls me. Whenever we are at the parks together I scan the pins and look for Beauty and the Beast pins. Then I work on trades for her, always favorable to her of course.
I do sometimes admit to the 1/2 brain (lately I think it's less and less, oldstimers is kicking in faster than I thought),but just what is a brick house?
But you may have gone overboard with the feminist stuff. Them's fighting words to someone who raised 3 boys all by herself. Peggie

Personally I find that trading brats do much better than trading wenches... They get the sympathy factor. Right now I have my son working on his pouty stuckout bottom lip look that.... Oh WAIT I shouldn't be telling you guys this! Actually he does MUCH better than me on the trading side for 2 reasons... 1) He's cuter... (What do I care most of the CM's are like 300+ that he trades with.. (oh and that was age ) and 2) He's willing to trade I can't seem to part with any of my beloved peices of metal..

BUT that said I am MUCH stronger in the BUYING department. His allowance doesn't cover many pins.. And if it looks like it's gonna, well... I just cut it!

As for my wife... Well, she is WAY to timid, so she typically suckers DS or DD into making the trades for her. DD is still just getting the feet wet, so in all the men rule in MY fam..

Men with blue hair or pinboy aliases are wimpy traders

Red headed moderators rule as traders!

 

[chef's wife]

Since it's already been established that I am a wench, please consider my application for the position. I am definitely built like a brick house and can, with a little cleavage, sweet-talk any male trader out of a pin. Just ask Ed, he's seen me in action! It's true that women are usually trading for someone else, though. I do it all the time. Looking forward to meeting you Chas!

I too am a "brick house"!! XXXL!! Hey cruisers remember the "bird" I picked?? On "Match Your Mate"??? Oh Yeah!!

Women I find are a bit more generous, and not quite so "serious" about their pins. We just wanna see you smile. Isn't there a commercial about that???

Anyway, it will be interesting to meet Mr Blue, and put a name with a face. Should we be looking for blue flaming hair guys??
I would crack up if he showed up friday at the contemporary with a BLUE WIG!!!!

Okay Lord of whatever!! I double dog DARE ya,
NO dares back!! That's as dared as you can get!!

Ask Ed, he may have one you can borrow!
