This reminds me of the song from the beginning of clerks.

Now for random thoughts.
If hell is on fire, why did christians think burning everything satanic would work? Couldn't the devil make some rock witches or some other non flammable version of his minions? What would they do then? Probably punch themselves.

What was life like before games?

Why is it that in all old pictures of Medival kings, they all look like drag queens?

I still don't consider 'videogames' a hobby. That's just an excuse to be a lethargic ass. Go pick up a pair of skates or lacrosse stick, fatty.

Yeah, Burgerville, were you can buy a $6 burger that sucks compared to a $2 Whopper. Razz

I know, fuck that place. I was only using Cool

in derision and hatred (as per usual)

basically what I mean is I miss my goddamn in-n-out burger

Daggers are better than swords, unless we're talking about my Gladius replica:

Maintz style.

That is pretty badical, Cattivo.

I want it.

Can I have it?

You can find it wherever they sell sword/dagger replicas. I bought mine through a mail-in catalog. I don't remember the name of it, but it did have various replicas of Greek weaponry, Medieval weaponry, etc., as well as fantasy stuff like Lord of the Rings (including Aragorn's sword).

The different styles of Roman gladii are usually a little under $200.

I'm pretty sure if I ever hit the lottery, the first thing I would do after paying off my family's bills and buying a house would be buying every belt I wanted from this place.

EDIT: They got rid of the Million Dollar Belt and the original Intercontinental Belt!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!

Another random thing

Gladius: a pic of a cool sword/dagger that Cattivo has.

Gradius: One of the greatest games ever created.

replace "L" with "R"! It's like.. a double edge of cool shit!

Hmm. Oddly enough, in Japanese the sounds L and R are interchangeable. Example: Roronoa Zolo in US One Piece (One hacked up Piece of shit, if you ask me), but Roronoa Zoro in the Japanese version.

Apparently, in Japanese, a D also looks like a L or a R, because the Dead Pepper from FF IX is called Red Pepper in the japanese version.

Ament to that! But the question is WHICH ONE?

I personally like each for different reasons:

Super Mario Bros. (1985) - It's the classic! I mean, how can you really beat the slot machine bonus levels? castle in every level? and the pwings? It may seen ancient/outdated now, but I still find joy in playing the classic!

Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels (1986 release/1993 US) - I can't say I have much memory of this game to be honest... really no memory at all... strange since All Stars still sits in my living room! I'm sure I liked it for something Confused

Super Mario Bros. 2 (1988) - How can't you enjoy being able to choose more than just Luigi or Mario? I mean, you could be the princess! The point wasn't focused around saving a girl! For 1988, it was a step in the direction of gender equality (lol)

Super Mario Bros. 3 (1990) - Raccoon & frog costumes! Need I even say more? Yes, I must... the boot! Yes, the boot. That is the craziest ability of all the SMBs!

Super Mario World (1991) - I absolutely loved the idea of mapping out the levels and worlds! I also thought it was ingenious to create several Yoshis, each with different abilities.

Of course I like the games for so many other reasons, and now I really want to play all of them... maybe I will... Does anyone own Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World? I have it in my living room along side Donkey Kong Country and Harley's Humongous Adventure.

Actually the whole thing was a dream, so if anything it was laughing in the face at the thought of gender equality, and equating it to a dream that could never come true.
