  1. Loving those CollegeHumor Batman videos.  Hilarious!

  2. Man, Sypha is getting annoying in the Castlevania Netflix series.  Her powers seem to have ripped off Iron Man lately!

      I still gotta catch up!

  3. Laa, la la la la-la, la la laa, la-la-la la, Villa Alegre!

  4. Stupid rain driving the stupid ants indoors.. I mean, they are really stupid!  Going anywhere but where the food crumbs are..

      we've been playing millipede over here...not on a game system though...

  5. Having a crappy phone charger port sucks.  Having Cricket trying to tell you to buy a new phone sucks even harder.  Get bent!

  6. So many great arcade ports for the Colecovision.  Outside of that, so much crap for the Colecovision.

    1. Cobra Kai

      Cobra Kai

      I know, it has some awesome games. Ultimately it's the controllers that ruin it for me. I think I trade my Coleco setup to someone here for a TG16 system. Way back when the two were comparable in value.

      Yeah, the controllers are garbage-- especially the Super Action controllers.  FOUR trigger buttons??  And a 12 button keypad..  Way too complicated.

  7. Your vision is our vision!  COLECOVISION!

  8. Any time I think of the song "Paloma Blanca" I think of it being about Blanka from Street Fighter II.  Rahr!  Rahr!

  9. Morgan Freeman: "The Poop That Took A Pee.  Chapter One."

  10. This was my first purchase from a wings store today.  Wingstop was surprisingly good!

      Wingstop is great!  Try the Atomic if you're feeling super brave.  I can only have about 3 before the suffering is too great.  :)

      Nope; super hot is not really my thing.  I have been told Korean BBQ was really good.  I was most pleased with the seasoning on their fries and their ranch.

  11. Looking for a reason; roaming through the night to find my Face In This Girl!  My Face In This Girl..

  12. I still can't look at the sports word GOAT and not think "a player that cost their team a victory".

     

  13. The status update window doesn't seem to work too often these days.  Usually I click on it and nothing happens.

      Hasn't worked on my iPad (latest iOS) for a while. Have to go to your profile to post a status update. Software so broken these days, new normal it seems.

      @Random Terrain I have Windows 10.  It used to work no problem but it's messed up lately.  I click in the box and nothing happens at all.

      I have the same problem.  It will work sometimes but most of the time it doesn't.

  14. Sledge Hammer: This is for that little kid's piggy bank! (punches terrorist)

    And this is for hittin' me! (punches him again)

    And this is for callin' me names! (punches again)

    And this is for ordering pizza! (punches again)

    And this is for makin' me hold hands with another guy! (punches again, then punches terrorist again)

    Terrorist: What was THAT for???

    Sledge Hammer: That was gratuitous.

  15. I used to love her.. but I had tequila.

      I have been singing it that way for years!  Goes best with Cabo Wabo.

  16. I'm trying to do a "top 20" series of Intellivision videos.. but man, the controls are so horrid for that system.  Too many damn buttons!

    1. ls650

      ls650

      Depends on the game I think.  The disc and the numeric keypad are fine, it's those awful side buttons.  Some games are well-designed to avoid the side-buttons: sports games, Astrosmash, Q*bert, Night Stalker, Shark Shark, etc.

  17. Dragon!  Dragon!  Rock the dragon!  Dragon Ball Z!!!

  19. Damn!  How do you get your buckets to NOT stick at the edges in KABOOM! on Stella emulator?  Frustrating..

      I would have reported it for you, but, I'm not having the issue and the devs will likely have questions.

      Thanks; I'll post and see what they say.

  22. Igor.. the scalpels go on the LEFT, with the pitchforks!  

  23. Good on ESPN for being livid about the no-call goaltending near the end of the Blazers/Jazz game.  Horrendous.

      Agreed, that was horrible. Gave the impression of the refs rigging the game. 3 refs missed it? All eyes right there. Come on now.

      There were some other key fouls that were missed/unfair big-time, like the one that led to Ariza's T's and subsequent ejection over, and the one that put Simons out of the game. 

  24. I'm never thrilled when a quarterback throws multiple ugly picks and still wins MVP.  But even for the brief career Mahomes has had so far he deserves to win a Super Bowl.

    1. BydoEmpire

      I would tend to agree, but he made so many incredible plays.  Hard to see the Chiefs winning without Mahomes' legs... and he made some great throws down the line to make up for misses earlier on.

  25. Mmm.. dare I say it-- are Lay's STAX actually better than Pringles?  More crunch, more flavor, cheaper cost??

      Actually, they go for $1 at Fred Meyer fairly often.

      Right on!  Here I know they have'em at Dollar Tree.  I like to get the cheddar flavored ones and (for some weird reason) I like to dip them in cole slaw. ?

    4. retrorussell

      I kind of wish they had more flavors but the basic ones they do have are really good.  Sour Cream & Onion is my favorite.
