Dude, are you stealing my material? From the late, great "pawn shop screwing thread."

Fat guy from Pawn Stars: "So, are you looking pawn your screwing or sell it? I tell you what, my buddy is an expert on all things screwing. Lemme give him a call and have him take a look."

Customer: "I was looking to get $200 for it."

Fat guy from Pawn Stars: "I'd like to have my buddy take a look at it, I don't know what this screwing is worth. Could be a fake screwing. I don't know."

Buddy: "Wow, this screwing is immaculate. Screwings like this are almost impossible to find, especially in this condition. I know many collectors who would pay $15,000 for a screwing like this."

Fat guy from Pawn Stars: "Well, how much are you looking to get for it now?"

Customer: "Well, he says $15,000. How about $14,500?"

Fat guy from Pawn Stars: "I can maybe do $2,000. I mean, I could sit on a screwing like this for months. I don't have customers come in everyday looking for one of these screwings."

Customer: "Alright. I stole this screwing from my girlfriend's mom last Thanksgiving anyways. $2,000 would buy some new tires for my Brodozer."

I always like how they interview the pawn shop guy and he rambles off a script about the history of all these items like it's innate knowledge in his bald head. "The interesting thing about miniature glass replicas of the Death Star is that they preceded Star Wars. They actually preceded motion pictures altogether. See they were brought into popularity by a bartender/visionary in Boston Massachusetts named Ira "Hams" McPherson III, whose talent went beyond glass figurines and into the realm of the occult."

Do you think he does that in other areas of his life?

"Listen, so far this has been a great date. But to be honest with you, I'm just not certain of your value. I mean, there are a lot of crazy bitches that I might not be able to recognize out there, and the bottom line is I have to protect my own interests. I happen to have a buddy that's an expert in all things women, I'd like to have him come in and take a look at ya."

I've learned the difference between buddy and friend. I have a friend who uses that term in the same sense that they do on Pawnstars.

Friend (noun)- somebody whose company you enjoy.
Tom invited some friends over to watch the game

Buddy (noun)- a person whose number is in your phone in case you need something. The term buddy is generally followed with a description of that persons capabilities, knowledge, or belongings.
I've got a buddy who __________________ (knows how to fix
your plumbing) (has a clay thrower we can borrow) (can weld)

You're confused,you live too "Far within the oaken tower" and don't understand these things.You need to call a buddy to "splain" it to you.
