To clarify more on the post title, has anyone come across a post in another forum (non-gaming related) or in an unexpected setting?

I'm a Lakers fan and was reading an article on last night's game against the Suns. It was Shaq's first game with the Suns against his former team.

I don't always read all the comments below the article but this was of interest to me. I came across this response:

Hey don't knock that atari 2600, those were the days. I've actually written games for the atari 7800 and NES. Game play is becoming a lost art nowadays.

It was in response to this:

DHW1115 - Word! tml19 is scaring me. I think he's got a MJ shrine in his room and he lights candles every night and prays to the MJ gods and closes off all the curtains and locks himself in a room and watches every MJ game tape one after one, after one, after another, after another. Life with him must be fun. I think his first word was Michael. I bet he's got a MJ poster, MJ pillowcases, MJ bedspread, and wallpaper and a 1987 VCR to watch all of those tapes, and still plays dig dug on Colecovision and Atari 2600.

Just in case anyone else is interested in the article.
