Mario:Ive quit my job as a plumber and i''ve become a sleasy pizzaman
Snifit:Id like a large with double mushrooms please.
Mario:here you go.
Snifit:This pizza tastes like @$$ and i feel funny now.
Mario:Well i didnt want to go and pick fresh grade A mushrooms case i''d have to drive a few miles to the supermarket Instead I bought the red ones from some drug dealin kid, and i picked the white ones from the little spot in my backyard where yoshi does his business.
Snifit:AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

Yeah, I know. Do you have Mario Party? By rotating the joystick, it goes even more like this. The controllers finish by working very bad and I find this so stupid. At least the gamecube is there :)

I have broken the left/right snapback system of an N64 controller by doing one too many powerslides in Mario Kart 64.... Never got the powder thing though.

*My real signature went on strike, said something about "unfair working conditions". So, this is a temporary replacement sig, until I can work things out with the real sig.

 The "powder" you see is from the wearing away of the joy stick on the sides of the pad. It's common, and is not severe enough to ruin the stick, although if it happens enough, it may weaken the stick.

i dont think so or i would think it LOOKED LIKE DEAD SKIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

its not dead skin
dead skin would be in larger particles and it would have fingerprint lines on it and it would jam your c-stick
not make it wobbly!

it is dead skin.
the body is forever replacing skin and the dead skin just falls off. obviously not in big chuns like a snake. over 90% off house hold dust is dead skin. fact.

The constant rubbing on the circular lumps on the stick is perfact for flaking away dead skin.
