It almost seems like Fast Eddie is deliberately flushing TV Tropes down the crapper.

How so?  (I'm a frequent visitor to the site).

Aside from using the Missingno glitch back in first gen, I have trained my Pokemon legitimately using those items only available in the game (power items, Exp. shares).  Beating people with a team I put several days into training makes me feel like a proud dad.

Adventure Time is one of the best Cartoon Network shows I've seen since the Cartoon-Cartoon days.

All male members of the Fungi Forums are neckbeards and will thus die alone and afraid in a dark basement. No exceptions.

Oh.  That explains everything.

You'll have to keep waiting. Contrary to popular belief, it's not "Remake every two gens" as much as "Remake on an anniversary".

The 20th of Red and Green is in five years.

That is just nuts.  I remember watching the premiere episode of Pokemon.

You know what, I totally forgot about that.  I'll have to revise my sig.

My new sig for 2011 is a realization I made about halfway through watching the anime series School Rumble.

Very fun game.  Me and a buddy are currently trying to beat it at 100% (or whatever odd number they're using this time).

Nice.  I'm always looking for good instrumental covers of game music.

The AC adapter for my netbook has decided to stop working. And a replacement adapter from ASUS would cost $50. And it happened to do this a week before spring semester starts.

I've had my fair share of computer issues Warp.  I feel ya.  I was luckily able to snag a fairly cheap 3rd party charger (which has worked to perfection since August btw) from some computer store website.  The cost of official replacement charger from the company (Toshiba): about $88 when you factor in tax and shipping.  Yeah, I would say taking a chance definitely worked out there.  I wound up spending less than half of that.

So, some of you may have heard about my "Mario" story on the Pointless Topic.  Well, I have recently been contacted by a friend of mine who was also at that show.  Long story short, starting this month I am going to be a featured guest in interviews on a Minnesota Vikings fan site that this guy runs.

Well, I always liked chicks with blue hair, so Mercury gets my vote.

Wait...oh, THAT Mars.  Eh, I've always liked Mercury (the planet).

Well, after our post-Christmas shopping, I own fully half of our Wii game library, with two shmups (Blast Works and Castle of Shikigami III), a fighter (Tatsunoko vs. Capcom), and a rhythm game (Samba de Amigo). So I've pretty much dealt with that problem before it really began. And my sister bought Rune Factory Frontier, so at least one of my siblings is doing things right.

(She also wants to play Mushihime-sama now that she has a working PS2 again. That alone makes up for everything else.)

Ooh, Tatsunoko vs Capcom is a really fun game.
