I agree with typewriters. My father did his doctoral dissertation on a Brother word processor, which was the closest to owning a typewriter that we ever were. He still has that thing around somewhere.

3.5" floppy disk drives. I still put them in my computers for nostalgia's sake. Hearing the drive seek at boot reminds me of when I was a kid.

The customer with a knife is always right.

Two words: Macho. Dragons.

Nelson Van Alden is easily favorite and unfortunately least seen character on that show. This excites me as well.

...there has GOT to be a better way of saying that.

More or less my thought. Couldn't have nailed Taki's look any better IMO.

There are no words to describe how badly I want this.

Not gonna lie, the thought of Paul Verhoeven making a Half-Life movie gave me a bit of a chub. >_>

Several years ago John Romero had one of the greatest business cards I'd ever seen. Fellow game developer Tim Schafer had Tweeted "I carry it in the pocket over my heart because I think it can stop a bullet."

Marriage was pretty common in FFXI. I never got married (/foreveralone) in it, but I know there was some fee associated with it. In gil mind you, not real currency.

Yep, those were the days. I hear it's a much different game now.

Don't knock the meleeburn method. It worked well and I'm proud to say I did it that way. (Vanburace the Red Mage is me)

Bahamut is known through the series to bring about the end of...well everything. He's essentially the Alpha and Omega of the Final Fantasy series.

Despite the flaws of the game, that ending was beautiful.

Regardless, the Battery Tunnel was filled end-to-end with seawater. I can't even fathom how many gallons that could be.

Because it runs through all the hipster neighborhoods in Brooklyn before terminating at 8th Ave & 14th St. in Manhattan.

The ones of the Battery Tunnel are just mindblowing. I need to make a trip into Lower Manhattan pronto.

Long Island here, the wind is blowing a good 12-15kts, probably higher. No rain yet. I can already tell this will be worse than Irene was last year.
