Default OT: What the @#$%! am I looking at here?

Many of you here know who Gary Vaynerchuk is. Last year, he was pumping up sports cards like crazy and prices reached all-time highs. Since then, he has moved on to NFTs. I still don't know what the hell they are. Anyways, when I saw that PSA graded his drawings, I just couldn't help but LOL. Like, seriously??? And if you don't think that's messed up, then look at this below:

I really don't know what to make of all this, man! Have people gone insane??

What did the Passionate Parrot grade at? PSA 10? LOL! Would PSA grade my daughter's drawings, by the way?

I'm selling all my NFTs on Leon's new Non-Fungible BST section. I fully guarantee that you will not know what you have won, even after you win it and don't expect USPS to deliver it.

Cry your heart out Christies.

Seems like the current version of a Beanie Baby but with an even higher price tag. I'm glad I don't understand what this is.

How long ago was this dude shamelessly pumping massively produced BKB rookies as the next big thing?

He played a huge role in destroying the basketball card hobby. Whatever he starts babbling about, his sheep will jump all over it!

The guy is a total snake oil salesman who preys on weak minds. Anyone who could look at that and pay a penny for it is a complete imbecile.

That PSA would actually put it in a slab is beyond me and calculated only to put more money in Gary V's pockets, as if he needs more. I assume Nat Turner had to approve this and to me it doesn't reflect well on his new leadership.
