Except even at 12 I had a basic sense of history.

To summarize: some dude attempts division by zero; mushroom cloud ensues.
You see, not only is this thread more vague than your previous one, but it literally copies the exact purpose of this forum. It's like a classic gaming forum inside a classic gaming forum.
Where's Garry Shandling when you need him?
Edit: Why would you take a poll on something that is a matter of (easily verifiable) historical fact?

I say we start taking bets on the next thread the OP will start.
Section, Thread Title, About, Odds:
Classic Gaming, Sega Collecting, about collecting Sega stuff, 2-1
Modern Gaming, Random Modern Gaming stuff, about all modern games, 2-1
Arcade Alley, Arcade Collecting, about collecting arcade games, 15-1
Off-Topic, Off-Topic, about non-video game stuff, 25-1 (I don’t think he can see it yet)
I doubt he scrolls down so all other sections are 50-1.

Yes, yes. Indeed, what young child doesn't carry a Webster's with him or her at all times? ;) All joking aside, I'd be shocked if half of the children in school today have ever cracked open a dictionary outside of a grade school teacher passing one around the classroom in order to tell the students to refer to it if they had any spelling questions.

You might want to try one of these threads, or since it has been about 3 or more years since last discussed you could probably start a new thread to get new opinions.
You could also keep it here and try to decipher what conversation is targeted to you. :/

What do you guys think about the old Bandai Nes game dinowars (might be spelled wrong)?
I always liked it and have fond memories of it. You see, my local video store never had a copy, but whenever I was out of town and spent a few day at my Grandmas, well, her video store had a copy and so I would always rent it there.
I had a blast with the game and I liked the two separate gameplay styles. Not to mention how can any kid resist controlling an awesome robot dinosaur of destruction?
Discuss, have fun and go nuts!!!

it's an inside joke between a friend & I he thinks the 1st system ever is the gameboy and its 6ft by 3ft in other words i wanted to see how stupid people are (like that dumbass,for this purpose lets call him James) james may be a gamer but he doesn't know the first thing about videogames he thinks videogames and any thing that is to do with electricity works by magic i ask him "how does an mp3 player get its electricity" he says "whats electricity an mp3 player works with magic"

their is actually a story behind that it started like this...the goomba's were @ peace w/ the toadstools because of a treaty it basically said "the toadstools will give the goombas food but only if they remain allies in a state of war" so bowser l8er invaded the mushroom kingdom bought 8 castles & then kidnapped peach soon the toadstools ran out of food & the goombas betrayed the toadstools fighting alongside bowser. which we then go to the mario bros arcade mario & luigi slipped and fell into a pipe found themselves i the mushroom kingdom imidiatly i formed of what happened in the kingdom thus then saving the princess in every mario then on
