Frown: Then I realized it was because she was amused / perplexed by my purchase: Extra strength Advil, a frozen pizza, and a jar of maximum strength powdered laxative.

Outcome: I couldn't think of any kind of suave way to convey the context of this purchase to her so, I dunno guys, I just don't think she and I are going to make it.

You can take a dump while playing those games on a regular PC too...

It might just be a little less comfortable though...

the PSP port of SCUMMVM is fantastic.

Well, you could always push it even further with a silly joke, then reel it back in.

The Caanoo port is probably the best portable version available, except the iPad version, because of the processor and touch screen. The great thing about ScummVM is that it has been ported to every device with access to a screen and buttons. :P

I'm not going to say the goat didn't play ANY role in his promotion...
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

^...AND a post hole digger can be soft-modded (by SK) to shoot lazer beams cross country, or so i'm guessing we'll be told.

Ticked - site is blocked at work and no proxy will let me log in (or it is blocked itself). Coupled with extended workdays and technical foolery with the site at home (the site just times out randomly at home when I try to login), I have not been around for quite some time.

Smiled - I should be engaged soon...

Well hopefully I will have a better job before I marry her that doesnt block the site - that or I will be unemployed for a short time since she does live a state away. I am trying to convince our IT department to unblock the site - I am currently accessing it at a friends house. They are cool guys but can be dicks about things.
