Ze_ro Posted May 31, 2002 Author Share Posted May 31, 2002 You Know You've Been Playing Too Much Atari When: .... you go to McDonalds and ask for a Vitamin with a side order of Video Wafers. .... you were shocked to find out that scorpions are not actually white. .... you attempt to pick up objects by either walking over them, driving over them, etc. .... thanks to you, "Joystick Hand" is a documented medical ailment. .... your friends invite you to play tennis, but your "racket" is a large white rectangle. .... your left thumb is now entirely red. --Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trey Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 If you want to quantify yer Atari geekyness, take the scientific quiz: True/False: You have made a fake ID to buy Msytique games. You hacked haunted house and changed the eyes to boobs. You were really turned on by the haunted house boob hack. You know that if you kill the green dragon in the red room of the black castle and the magnet and black key are in the room and you touch the dead green dragon with the magic dot, he'll turn black. You just spent the last 15 minutes proving that last statement was complete bullshit. Yes, I'm home sick and damn bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then it happens, but you're not surprised. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
