I know I occasionally get an "OMG" in there.

As for "Reticulating Splines," you would have to be pretty old to get that. What's sadder, is that some of the board here is probably too young to do so... but I'd like to think the devs are roughly my age. :)

Now, if I see "I_StartupSound: forking sound daemon" I know you guys are trollin'.

Reason as my minor ego, and opposite my desire to be a murderer.
A coagulated, gloomy thinking in the intelligence, as my major ego.
An antinomian theorem of behaviorism, in all of my thinkings.

And if they start throwing Doom references in there, i'll have to start posting my collection of WAD files... :ph34r:

We're both fossils by gaming standards, let's face it.

Back in my day, we only had a D-Pad and two buttons, A and B. There was no fancy-pants 3D, the portable systems were pea soup monochrome, and the arcades had graphics we only dreamed about at home.

AND WE LIKED IT!!!

Yeah, but that's a poor man's Donkey Kong Country. Why would you play that on the Game Boy, instead of its native land? :P

Now, if you want good platformers to play, here's one to look for...

I was going to say... I grew up with a black joystick with one red button, which would make your palm get blisters.... no inappropriate jokes on that please.

I would take another picture with my 6 button Genesis controller and my Saturn gamepad, but at that rate i might as well take a picture of my entire console collection, including the old Atari's, Collecovision and whatever else i might still have lying around... :D :ph34r:
