Next you gonna start yelling for kids to get off your lawn?
Personally, I love seeing all the younger players get into the game, and particularly into EDH. To me, that's a sign of a healthy format. If some of them resurrect old cards/strategies along the way, that's good, too, as it means they are aware there's more to the game than the most recent releases. I see that rarely enough to find it enjoyable when it comes up.

Yeah, dang kids need to get off my lawn.
On the bright side, maybe enough people will start playing Artifact Stax that it gets... enjoyable?

They won't get past Kataki and Stony Silence. But I must agree on the new Prophet. She is super insane. But I mean Seedborn Muse is a thing, as is Murkfiend Liege. All of these guys can be removed. I don't have a problem playing any of them.
My problem with EDH is the following: I'm gonna play Time Warp, then on my next turn recur it, and on my next play it again. And they declare that they will be taking a couple of extra turns, followed by the phrase "... now what should I do?"
What the heck is this with random things getting expensive? When did shared animosity become anything more than a dollar rare?
I hadn't noticed that particular one before, but I have noticed that an awful lot of cards have suddenly started jumping up in price.
Maybe this one jumped up because people are thinking how well it will go with some of the tribal stuff, or the red god, from Theros? I dunno. All I know is when I bought one awhile back for a tribal deck, it cost around a buck
EDIT:
Looking at the price trends for this card as listed on the Beta for the site, it looks like it jumped up to around $8 this past summer, dropped back to around $5, and then shot up a bit more just recently, now sitting at $10. Maybe people were anticipating tribal slivers or something would take off?

A while ago when Goblins became Modern Good... not amazing, but good. It's in a small set, not a lot of them out there, and a lot of people want a couple copies. It's like Idyllic Tutor though -- Casual drives most of it.
Now I know how my parents probably felt when I explained the intricacies of Transformers and other cartoons. I'm getting explained who all the characters are in the horrible Nick shows my daughter watches.
Gah, there's a played Greater Good at my LGS for $7.50, modern frame! I want it SO BAD, but I don't really have the money right now... I could invest in it, but what if it gets reprinted in the commander decks? What should I do?!?
Note: This is the ONLY copy of a modern framed Greater Good in stock there, so I REALLY want it.
I've never seen someone comment about this, but does anyone else know that Intruder Alarm + Krenko, Mob Boss makes infinite goblins? I just thought about this today when someone asked me about ways to make infinite goblins and got thinking about Krenko and untapping him.

Yep. It's strong, but not available to the typical Krenko-playing deck because, derp, blue.
I've seen a couple UR goblin tribal decks that run the combo. I know that Jason Alt (from Brainstorm Brewery) runs it in his Maelstrom Wanderer, too.
I can understand a preference for modern frames, but why would you take that as far as getting white-bordered version over the Urza's version?
Oh wait, LOL its 9th edition, so white bordered. STILL the only copy from that set, and the normal ones from Urza's is $12. So, do you think I should wait in case they will reprint this in the commander decks this year, or buy it now?
It's a good card, but I'm certainly not going to start badmouthing teenagers because of it...

IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICED THIS!!!!
I was gonna buy some for a casual tribal deck. I was like holy smokes!! When did this happen?!

Looking forward to seeing it in public games. NOT.
(I'm totally a child of the 90's) Thur, I did it again with the word "totally".

How I know I should build a deck:
Speaking of foreign foils - Hey, I got a Chinese foil Goblin Game on eBay for 4 bucks shipped. Probably worth that.
That card is going to be very good in prossh.
I keep reading your name as dorito.
The EDH stax primer
When you absolutely, positively got to kill every permanent in the room, accept no substitutes.
Eventually you'll start reading Dorito as my name.
I know, which makes me sad.

It's good in any token-y deck. Krenko loves it.
X goblins is X times as much damage.
