SQUANDERING HARD EARNED MONEY ON FRIVOLOTIES. WHEN THE WORLD ENDS AND I'M STARVING AND DYING AND FILLED WITH REGRETS I'LL WANT THOSE THREE DOLLARS BACK TO SPEND ON BLOOD. BUT RIGHT NOW I HAVE SOME COOL CARDS TO SHUFFLE THROUGH FOR A LITTLE BIT BEFORE SHOVING THEM INTO A BOX
2022 QYPSY GUEEN ALEX KIRILLOFF GQ GEMS
I HAVE BEEN VERY CRITICAL OF GQ SINCE THEIR SECOND SET DITCHED THE TOBACCO CARD DESIGN AND BRANDED THEMSELVES AS THE UGLIEST CARD™ BUT I GOTTA ADMIT I LOVE THEIR GOOFY INSERT SETS. THIS ONE IS AN ODDBALL SIZE, HAS SHINY HOLOFOIL, ZODIAC SYMBOLS AND A MAGICAL CRYSTAL. I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TRACK ONE DOWN ONLINE SINCE LAST YEAR AND THEY KEEP SLIPPING THROUGH MY FINGERS BUT THIS ONE OF A GUY ON THE TWINS I'VE NEVER HEARD OF FINALLY CAME HOME TO ME
2021 MOSAIC JIM THOME RED & BLUE PRIZM SQUARES PATTERN THINGY
I'M PRETTY SURE WHATEVER FLAVOR OF PRIZM PARALLEL THIS IS CAN BE FOUND AS A BONUS IN RETAIL RACK PACKS WHICH EXPLAINS WHY THEY'RE PRETTY EASY TO FIND IN JUNK BOXES. THERE WERE SEVERAL IN THIS PARTICULAR JUNK BOX AND THIS AIN'T THE LAST ONE YOU'LL SEE. HALL OF FAMERS ON WACKY SHINY CARDS AREN'T SOMETHING I WILL PASS ON BY WHEN DIGGING THROUGH BOXES. I DO ADMIT I WAS VERY CONFUSED WHEN I SAW CLEVELAND ON THIS CARD AS I INITIALLY THOUGHT THIS WAS THE TWINS OR MAYBE WHITE SOX AFTER THE PANINIFICATION OF HIS UNIFORM
2021 DIAMOND KINGS MICKEY COCHRANE AFICIONADO
NOT THE AFICIONADO I ACTUALLY COLLECT, BUT A NICE FIND NONETHELESS. I LOVE THE PAINTING MOTIF ON THE NEW DIAMOND KINGS CARDS AND THIS ONE OF A GUY WHO PLAYED BEFORE LOGOS WERE PLASTERED EVERYWHERE LOOKS REALLY DAMN GOOD. MICKEY IS AN ALL TIME GREAT CATCHER AS WELL EVEN THOUGH HE'S BEEN OVERSHADOWED BY MORE RECENT PLAYERS. A GOOD EXAMPLE OF A CARD I WOULD NEVER EVER THINK TO GO OUT AND FIND BUT AM SUPER HAPPY ONE FELL INTO MY LAP
2022 TOPPS JOSE ALTUVE 1987 35TH ANNIVERSARY ALL-STAR
MORE ALTUVE, AND MORE 1987 TOPPS. THE NON-SHINY FLAGSHIP VERSION OF THE 87 REHASH CARDS LOOK WAY WORSE THAN THE REFRACTORS BUT SINCE THIS ONE IS AN ALL-STAR DESIGN I'LL OVERLOOK IT. THIS IS ANOTHER CARD I'M CONFUSED ABOUT AS I'M NOT CERTAIN IF THE ALL-STARS ARE ITS OWN INSERT SET OR PART OF THE 35TH ANNIVERSARY SET. THE BASE SET IS ALREADY MASSIVE, TO TACK ON ALL-STARS IS JUST GETTING SILLY. IS ALTUVE THO AND I WILL NOT LEAVE JOSE TO LANGUISH IN A JUNK BOX

Paninification is an awesome term! Why couldn't I think of that?
