Posted on 05-18-04 11:26 PM, in Opinion on garage sales Link
Once upon a time (I'd wager about five years ago), I went to visit my grandmother, who lives way the hell out of town. Along the way, we stopped into a church, or a hall, or some sort of thing, where they were selling all sorts of things. Most of the goods were little crap like rugs and broken TVs and random other gizmos, but I found one interesting table. They were selling an Atari for twenty-five cents (Canadian, by the way), and Atari games for ten cents or less each.

I checked my pockets, I had no change. I went to my mother, asked her for a buck, and she asked me what I wanted to buy. At this point, she was reaching into her pockets. As I told her what I wanted to get, she refused to give me the money. The reason was that sometime around then she had said that she wasn't going to finance my video game addiction any more.

I could have had an Atari and at least eight games for a dollar! Surprisingly, I didn't really mind at the time. Looking back on it now, I think it's rediculous, but it still doesn't actually bother me. The consolation is that I don't think I would have used the Atari that much, even though it would be a fun thing to have.

Oh, and for anyone who's wondering, she soon after reverted back to not caring about my video games. It was really just more a of a phase she was going through at the time.

Well, at least nobody was hurt too badly. Things could have gone much worse.

In the long run, this will most likely just work out to be a minor misfortune and a temporary setback on your personal enjoyment. Either way, your life will go more-or-less back to normal eventually, at which point the job you were pretty much shoved into may turn out to make life pretty good for you, financially.

*Ehhhrrr* Wrong on all counts.

Know what time it is? That's right! It's rediculous hint time!

To be fair, I warned about questions like this at the beginning of the contest.

But your criticism is noted, and the next time I distort, I'll start with a screenshot of something noteworthy and recognizable, instead of just an empty, nondescript field with any distinguishing characteristics removed in the distortion process...

And, as Kefka said, while he was right, he gets no points since he disregarded the one hour rule.

*sweatdrop*

Oi. Alrighty. I'll have three more of these up when I get home.

Max: Sorry, man. Not quite how it works. That question was made null and void when Kefka gave his answer (and if you were joking, disregard this).

11. No hint for you.


12. No hint for you.


13. Ignore the watermark on the top. I was too lazy to take my own screenshot, or to crop out the mark from this one. Either way, "Gamer's Hell" has nothing to do with the game, so it doesn't matter. This shot is without interface, just graphics, so I made it a two-pointer. This game doesn't really have or need much of a menu-type setup, anyhow.

Geez, guys. It would have been so easy to grab this one from me. All you had to do was haul out the ol' calculator.

86. Fifty-seven.

You should definately continue with this as a series. I thought it was hillarious, even if I don't actually know some of the inside jokes firsthand, and most of the characters are folks I don't talk to.

Anyhow. Encore!

Think you could make them smaller for this one? Maybe, like... medals?

Yeah, I'm not gloating... I don't know what you're talking about.

EDIT: Sorry, I might as well play along.

Felix: Hey folks. I'm new to this game. I live in Canada, so you probably don't want to hear about my personal life.

As for the question, I'd say one hour. You'd take one right away, then another in a half hour, and another half an hour after that one.

Took me a few seconds to pick up on what you were getting at, there. Almost had me saying one and a half...

91. The Four Warriors of Dawn? I'm not sure about it. Are you talking about the whole Final Fantasy series, or that one game?

92. Bio Spark (something notatall ninja related) .

Hey, I didn't know who Peorth was before this thread, so it's a learning experience for us all.


Some of us still don't know who Peorth is...

11. And that just leaves this. C'mon, folks. It's a semi-realtime RPG for the PC. Kinda recent, but not that much. It has a single player and a multiplayer option (the latter of which I haven't used, yet), but I really don't think it's an MMORPG.
