I've heard sounds reused noticeably in unrelated titles on multiple occasions. For example, the Lizfos in Ocarina of Time make the exact same noise as pushing the red buttons in Ape Escape.

Me, hanging around the city park with nothing to do but sit on the play equipment. No one else in the entire park. Suddenly, I hear music. A young adult, male, wearing a red bandanna, driving down the road next to the park in a convertible with the top down. Listening to "I Just Can't Wait To Be King" from The Lion King. Singing along. 5 mintues later, he drives by again, doing the exact same thing, except with the addition of his girlfriend.

Something about that story is awesome.

There's a pair who's just plain happy.

Maybe "being king" is a private euphemism for that couple. And he can't wait. No wonder they're happy.

That's the 2nd best story I've ever heard.
Since this signature affects old posts, I'm leaving a message here in case anyone searches for my username. This account died in early 2013. I am no longer a fundamentalist.

Don't add to my problems by pretending my past views are still held in the present. I do not have any patience for that. Feel free to ask me what I think now.
