Arcade games are fun. That's about all I've got right now, but I'll come back later if I think of anything else.

According to KenToad this should become the best thread ever. Up until he said that I actually considered him to be a pretty together dude.

Not my fault. The server that it's on is as dangerously unreliable as I am.

Thanks guys.

But, Stingray, you're not even getting paid for this anymore. I'd hardly grant you the slacker title today.

Cheers,
KenToad

PS Need more comforting arcade thoughts. The woman is giving me that look again.

Have you ever noticed that if you grab your joystick with one hand then... oh, I promised to try and not post stuff like that anymore.

Isn't Robotron, like, your favorite game.

You must be taking notes. Not my absolute favorite, but it's involved in a ten or twenty way tie for second. Tempest will always be number one to me.

Fix the damn site. Otherwise you can fax me my refund.

Stingray · « **Reply #11 on:** November 17, 2005, 02:34:48 pm »

I have one of those funny gold dollars with kangaroos on it, it that enough?

Harry Potter · « **Reply #12 on:** November 17, 2005, 02:35:52 pm »

I can't make change for that. I work in a print room.

Stingray · « **Reply #13 on:** November 17, 2005, 02:38:29 pm »

In that case, I'll keep it and fax you an insincere apology.

-S

Stingray · « **Reply #14 on:** November 17, 2005, 02:39:25 pm »

Hey it's working again. Now I don't even have to be insincere.

Yes, Robotron, the only game where two people can be satisfied by one person at a time handling both joysticks.

I am taking notes. I noticed that Saint will not forget his towel when you two play Robotron and that is a good thing.

I told you. This no post tally in EE thing has liberated me.

Drill a hole in it any you've got yourself a washer there, pardner.

I'll give you that one but some other's may disagree with me there

Stingray · « **Reply #21 on:** November 17, 2005, 02:55:00 pm »

Copper washers are used in automotive brake systems. Save your Canadian pennies and leaky brakes will soon be a thing of the past.

ChadTower · « **Reply #22 on:** November 17, 2005, 03:05:07 pm »

You say that like there is copper in a Canadian penny.

I say, pile them up and have one thick ass wire conductor.

missioncontrol · « **Reply #23 on:** November 17, 2005, 03:21:29 pm »

well it's copper color don't know if it's real or not. some lady gave it to me at a store If I would have noticed it then I'd have given it back

Stingray · « **Reply #24 on:** November 17, 2005, 03:23:35 pm »

Sounds like it's time for an experiment. Time to hack up a Canadian penny to see what color it is inside. US Pennies have been Zinc with a thin copper shell around it since 1982.

True, I've only had three naps today.

Is it? You usually check out about the same time I get off work. I've still got an hour to go, what am I supposed to do now?

missioncontrol · « **Reply #31 on:** November 17, 2005, 04:03:35 pm »

well it's usually way past my bedtime when I check out of here......

Stingray · « **Reply #32 on:** November 17, 2005, 04:05:15 pm »

Oh, well carry on then. I didn't mean to screw up your schedule.

-S

missioncontrol · « **Reply #33 on:** November 17, 2005, 04:08:04 pm »

it's not like I have a set schedule, but I do have to put up with the four hour web design class and the old lady who keeps bugging me about what the teachers saying so that I can't post....

Stingray · « **Reply #34 on:** November 17, 2005, 04:11:36 pm »

I thought I told you to ~~kill her and hide the body~~ have a firm, but gentle discussion with her about respecting your personal space.
