One does grow into it. I remember at age 21 saying I'd never drink an adult beverage. Fast forward 6 years. It's 12:26 pm and I've been shitty for a couple hours now. There are, of course, extenuating reasons.

Oh, and to anyone reading this thread: Just buy a GC already. You WILL be happy you did later. It's bound to be the Saturn of its generation.
I agree with you get a Gamecube now thing (got a sealed black one in my closet too) but I hate liquor.

I literally threw up badly after trying only a little bit of it because o the taste and feel.

On the other hand sprite & Gin and Whiskey are my thing, so who knows?

Agreed. Let's have a drink to toast the happy ending!

Onto the idea of the GC turning into the next Saturn, am I the only one who has noticed a stiff incline in GC game prices in the last couple of months?
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Kinda, all the big name titles are getting slowly hiked, but that's typical of GameStop's X-Mas startup. After January 15th when holiday retail return season ends at GameStop it'll all fall back to normal.

Meanwhile the rare low-print niche titles keep getting cheaper and cheaper.

I was going to point that out too. BUT he is young and I couldn't think of any way to tie that into the topic of the thread.

He will learn, Ben Kenobie.

Meant to say I hate alcohol.

Had way too much straight and flavored vodka forced down my throat and both the taste of it and beer make me want to puke.

Like I said though gin and Whiskey somehow taste great to me and not all that strong at all.

STARTS BEATING WITH FISH.

Alcohol, beer and other derp stuff.

Liquor is the fancy shit.

Liqueurs are the foofy lulu drinks.

Spirits are distilled alcohol.
