Nuh-uh! Nothing's funner than Pac-Man!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
hit the "Fn" button on your keyboard. It looks like you've turned on the number keypad....do you have a laptop?Oh, Maria, I could just kiss you and kiss you and kiss you. Especially if this works when I get home.
Just buff diving in my brain.So not just me who does that? What a relief.
do you think your kids were mature enough to learn the adult lesson that sometimes good TV shows have crappy episodes?In my mind, this episode consists entirely of Giles singing. It's a short episode, but I think it's for the best.

I can't even.
I am pretty much OK with sex and violence.
They're kind of a requirement for me. (Let me sum up) I can be walking out of a room and hear the adult content warning for a movie, and if it has violence, sexual content and coarse language, I'll sit back down. Anything less and I'm probably not piqued. Not to say that I never watch or enjoy movies without said warnings (that would be far from the truth), but thank goodness for HBO is all I can say. Why don't I have the Sopranos and Deadwood on dvd yet? Sheer laziness, most likely.

What is even happening?
Nuh-uh! Nothing's funner than Pac-Man!
It's probably their least favorite, but the time I tried to play it, it also looked quite different from arcade style Pac-Man, which...RIP OFF! We were trying to recapture our youth, darn it.

I think my kids haven't yet figured out that there are video games that aren't educational. (Except for Midtown Madness which my daughter has played a few times)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
If someone thought they were buying a sexy video game for their kids, and got sneak scenes of violence, I'd think that was wrong, and vice versa.
You get that the GTA thing involves a (free, and easily accessible, but still) separate download to get the sexy sex, right? Not the regular hooker-giving-you-a-blowjob-in-the-car that's a regular part of the game, but the full frontal (video game) stuff.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Cindy, buy the Atari-style joysticks that plug into the front of your TV or VCR player. Old-style Ms. PacMan, Asteroids, Pole Position, Breakout... all of them. It rocks. We don't bother plugging in our game console anymore, just the joystick games.
My parents bought me Archon (the battle-chess game), Hacker, and Arkanoid (fancied-up Breakout), as well as any InfoGames game I wanted. Of course, they also let me watch Monty Python, so I guess the violence and sex was okay if was presented by British people.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
In a similar vein, another great baseball photo, the Wizard of Oz.
Proof that at least some baseball players are actually atheletes. Damn that's olympic level gymnast or diver form.
Anne - I have not. But now I suspect I want to.

I gotta put a plug in for Katamari Damcay if we're gong to talk about no sex and violence games. [link]
Although I guess rolling over people and animals with a big ball of stuff is a little violent.
