Yeah, I finally figured out Santa wasn’t real at age 10 after a couple of school friends told me so, who I argued with. My parents were fairly lenient, but were strict about punishing me if I was caught lying to them, which I rarely did, so I could not imagine them lying to me at the time. I stayed up late on X-mas…

The kid lucked out in the end, even if it made him cry at first. $550 worth of loot instead of ‘just’ $400. I never got anything anywhere close to that expensive when I was his age. Though a family friend’s kid who was 7 years older was real nice and gave me his old Atari 2600 and large game collection when I was 9, I…

The kid got a free game and $100 gift certificate out of it, so it hardly ruined Christmas, the kid was actually lucky some loser pulled a prank or stole it. He just had to wait an extra day or whatever to get even more stuff.

Ah yeah first world problems. . . The kid got a free game and $100 gift certificate, so he was actually lucky some loser pulled a prank or stole it.

OMG, that voice, I’m impressed it didn’t drive the bear off.

You’re ahead of me, I just never paid any attention to the lyrics of this song, until this night when I saw a local Christmas Carol play performed by singing circus acrobats, and they happened to sing this song in the scene when Scrooge was shown his Christmas past with his crush. I suddenly realized how risque the…

The aliens will be no match for the latest Iphone!

That sounds like an improvement. I got bored with Fallout 3 after 10 or 15 hours. I liked the humor, and the gameplay was fine, but all the damn walking where nothing happened got old. Specially when you forget to save recently and suddenly some badass baddie attacks and kills you, and you have to walk all that way…

Clearly it was an extraterrestrial spaceship, what else could possibly fly straight and leave a smoke cloud or contrail and be visible at night? It’s not like humans have even invented flying machines or lights. That is beyond us.

Joking aside, yes great video.

Realistic for a crossfit fanatic, but they occasionally literal workout themselves to death when they kill too many muscle cells releasing enough protein into the bloodstream to cause kidney failure. . .

I could handle 7 cheap margaritas no problem, I would have a good buzz and I certainly wouldn’t be safe to drive, and would know it. I’ve known petite girls who can out-drink me, and I’m a 200+ pound guy. 7 or 8 margarita’s is not that much for some people.

It does happen, my dad had a couple of younger women he treated horribly too, manipulating them into sex and even financially supporting him by acting as a spiritual ‘guru,’ but after my mom left him, they also left him not long afterwards. Also my little sister, who bravely stood up to my dad as young as 6, despite…

I hope she can escape. My mom put up with that sort of ‘spiritually’ justified abuse, plus occasional beatings when he was drunk, for almost 20 years, convinced it was all her fault. He was the first person she had even seriously dated, and didn’t have much other experience to compare it to, and my dad managed to…

Yeah poor woman, I hope she can escape. My mom put up with that sort of ‘spiritually’ justified abuse, plus occasional beatings when he was drunk, for almost 20 years, convinced it was all her fault. My sister, a family friend and I finally convinced her to call the police and kick dad’s sorry ass out, and get a…

I hope his wife divorces him and presses charges. In response to a comment below his blog, he describes his current marriage to his wife who is partially disabled after a car accident, and ‘used’ to sexually deny him. So he’s raping his disabled wife. . .

“I used to get sexually denied by my wife. Then after following…

I did find Drax rather relatable . . .

I got my first one around ‘89’ as well, my first system was an Atari 7800, followed by an ‘old’ Atari 2600 a family friend gave me with a bunch of games which I had a fair amount of fun with, despite being baffled by games like E.T. and Superman.

I remember being impressed by the ‘amazing’ graphics on the NES. My…

Wow, I feel old now, I got my first NES when I was around 10 so probably 1988 or 1989. I remember my aunt was house sitting and got a bad stomach flu, I stayed with her to help make food and care for her, but also brought my NES and played a bunch of Super Mario Bros., the house she was sitting for a friend had a big…

Oops, yeah, duh. . .

No wonder my wife is always saying I’m too literal minded. . .
