  • I mean when viewed from the perspective of his world it makes sense.

    He lives in a world where substance is meaningless and all that matters is appearance and bravado. I can appreciate why to him that seems like good advice. Just kinda bums me out people live like that, but I bet he’s happy having power and influence and money. Good for him.

    I couldn’t and wouldn’t fuckin live that way and I will stick with my Casio a158, thanks.





  • Most of my friends I know who went the kishi route instead of a stand alone emu handheld when I was rocking the rg355xxsp have since ditched it and acquired some manner of handheld, some even just opted for a legit GBA sp with a flashcart.

    reasons I have heard:

    • Got tired of draining my battery

    • My phone doesn’t have an SD slot and so I was not able/didn’t want to load it with roms

    • it didn’t fit in my pocket or was clumsy to use on the bus.

    Your milage may vary. I still have a couple friends still just using their phone and they seem happy so take that as you will.



  • I think you’re definitely right.

    There was a year in college where my friends and I grinded the real smb2 when it was available on the Wii shop.

    It destroyed us. I don’t think we ever beat it. We were stuck on the third world for most of the year and it was super deflating.

    I still go back every now and then to get through it and even with save states it’s just a gauntlet.

    I love it for that though.



  • For the TNG finale here in Toronto they had a big celebration at the Skydome, our local large sports arena. They played the eps back to back on the big Jumbotron. My dad was always one for a party, so he took me down there. The place was packed with all sorts of super fans, dressed up and being freaks. My dad wasn’t a huge trek fan, but he knew what it meant to me, so he stuck it out and even got into it. I love that memory.

    I met a guy there who had fully modded his Playmates Tricorder toy to have flashing lights and sounds. It awakened something in me.

    OP: I’m super jealous you got to go to Star Trek: The Experience. Woweeee. Lucky.
