== Orange Pins ==


'''Brad Dowdy:''' I mean, you know me, there's probably always something you want. Yeah, that's true. There's actually, I'll give you a shocker. There's actually two orange pins.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, see, that's what I'm thinking. I'm wondering what orange pins you have to go, because I might want one.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. You know what I'm going to tell me? No. The worst.

'''Myke Hurley:''' See, I don't get anything. I don't get anything. I got the line here, but whatever. I don't get anything for free around these parts, kids. Oh, my God. Nothing. You're going to go there? Nothing from this guy.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' We're like the most fortunate people on the planet.

'''Myke Hurley:''' From you? From other people? Yeah. I get lots of stuff, and I'm very happy.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I like to pay it forward. But yeah, these are all pins that I've bought with my own money, and I want to make that clear. I never sell anything that was given to me. Okay. I'll give them away. I'll give them away.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Ah, yeah. That's a good system.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Oh, yeah. I don't hold on. I've given away tons of pins. Selling pins is hard. Harder, because actually, if I'm buying a pin, it's usually for a reason, because I want it for some reason. But sometimes you fall out of love with that pin, and it's time to move on. You got other things. I am saving up for a pin, which is why I have these on the market. It's that Sailor 105th anniversary, which we talked about. Oh, you're saving for that thing. I just like to do it, because I know you hate the 105th anniversary. It sounds so dumb. I'm not going to disagree with you there. That's pretty funny. It's just like, oh, here's a round number. But it's a cool pin, so I'm saving up for that.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I'm on the waiting list. Crazy Bob was in the chat room. Just gave a little story that I have to read out, because I think this is kind of funny in a macabre kind of way. Still chuckling at one auction I saw where someone is selling two Sailor pens. The photo shows his credit card bill and a BIC next to it, painting a depressing story that they have bills to pay and had to resort to BIC. It's kind of sad, but at the same time, you can't help but laugh.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. I am not selling the Sailor pink love. That will be a hard one to part with. Sorry, Christine.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I'm going to launch a Mission Impossible-style heist with, like, rappelling from the ceiling to get that thing. So you better have it in some tight security.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I do. Highly secure.
