Seems like it was Gran Turismo 2. Ahh, the memories.

Oh man, I loved the Vector TT W8! What video game was it that included that beast?

Co-op is Contra. The minute your partner stops moving, he effectively ceases your movement too. Once cooperation ends, then the punching begins.

Oh, don't even get me started on the 360 d-pad... oh, whoops, too late! Haha. Seriously, though, how does a product so engineered, like the Xbox 360 end up with a d-pad that has no feel and 0 consistency? I can honestly say the NES d-pad is better.

Go back and watch from 1:54 to 1:55 - there is nothing for him to avoid until his foot is coming down on the bag, at which point, FB's leg starts coming into the baseline. As he's stepping on the bag, their legs collide and the first baseman comes down on top of him - that's what sends him twisting off and to the…

Go back and watch the clip again at 1:54-1:55... there is nothing for Rizzo to avoid until his foot is already outstretched for and coming down on the bag. Until Rizzo's leg is extended, the first baseman's legs are still beneath him - it's not until his foot is within 24 inches of the bag that the first baseman's…

Indeed, not an enjoyable experience, but it is one of the most important things you teach your children. What I mean is it's not just the potty training, but it's about teaching your child how to listen to and take care of their bodies. Failing to show them the importance of stopping 'fun time' leads to eating…

Having waited tables at a Cracker Barrel in Knoxville for 4 years, while I went through high school, I thought I'd seen everything our wonderful state had to offer. You have me beat on this one, yet we both lose.

I'm pretty sure I'd just tell my manager to deal with it. Nowhere in a server's job description does it say you have to put up with people's shit. Oh, wait...

I used to fly into SLC every year to go skiing and know exactly what you're saying. Utah is home to some of the coolest folks I've ever met and some of the most disturbing. One thing is for sure, it is unlike any other place in the states.

Yep, ditto what mtngoat said - a plastic potty that sits on top of the toilet, like a booster seat, basically. Nothing to clean unless things go very wrong.

Yes, in America, we do have crazy people who do insane things - however, there's nothing unique to our country about that. I see no reason why any other country's crazy rednecks couldn't be as ridiculous as our crazy rednecks.

Wow, I usually keep my opinions to myself, when in public, but this would have sent me off the handle. I can't imagine that anyone at that table, outside the offender, thought this was acceptable, especially those with food on their plates.

The problem is that some people don't care about 1) other people or 2) what other people think of them. While a little bit of #2 is a good thing [/zing! /high five! /apologize], complete apathy is not.

Per 'profit and greed', it's simply a matter of time. While there are a few technologies which are exceptions to the rule (e.g. Wikipedia, the Hubble Telescope), there will always be men who choose to advance their bank accounts at the expense of humanity.

STFU, Debbie!

Dude, they hit thigh to thigh as he's running as fast as he possibly can. Recall, Rizzo is a professional athlete - not you or I jogging to the mailbox, he is moving quick. Secondly, he's trying to duck under the first baseman's cleat which was directly in front of his face. This wasn't a 'fall', this was a…

No way this is Rizzo's fault. First, he is focused on reaching the bag as fast as possible and is not, nor should he be, ever looking at the defense on his way to first, on a ground ball like this. Part of the 1st base coach's responsibility is to observe for him, so he can focus on his speed and try to run it out.

Hrmmm... that's a good question - I'm not sure if these are comparable or not.

Yeah, I'd be pissed if some drunk chick clowned me on TV, too. If I were the commander of the sheriff cuffing her, I would have given that guy a 'friendly talk' about how to properly apply handcuffs. Hell, this guy might have even received some kind of mark against him, considering his failure to subdue her, when…
