There was a misprint on magic the gathering cards that affected the artwork/coloration the year I was born. WotC recalled all of them and destroyed them all. The remaining ones that were already purchased sell for absurd money

TVs have a UHF switch so I can finally watch more channels. I really hate putting tinfoil on the rabbit ears and opening the window to sometimes get these new channels though, but they work better if I hold onto the antenna. It's hard to see what I'm watching if I do this, but at least I can mostly hear what they're saying, and the picture is dark anyway, so even if I could see at this angle, it would be too dark and snowy.
