@FlyingTomahawk Yeah. I agree. Who was the standout "character" on the Vectrex for example? That triangle from Mine Storm? Or the 2600? A smurf / 9 blue pixels and 3 white ones...

[FlyingTomahawk]

@AlexMurphy

lol, hehehe...

[AlexMurphy]

@FlyingTomahawk Coleco was that wee flappy Penguin shite! Sorry I have been playing Antarctic Adventure just a wee bit too much... Bonk on the PC Engine. Crash Bandicoot on the PSX... A Mahjong tile for Mame...

[AlexMurphy]

@FlyingTomahawk I don't mean to ask personal questions, so just ignore me if it is none of my business... But how did you end up in Japan? Is it a permanent or a temporary work thing? Is being a westerner still kinda exotic? Have you become more polite since moving to Japan?

[A Former User]

WAIT WAIT WAIT...
@FlyingTomahawk You're a westerner?

I don't mind at all.
Just to keep it short and not clutter up this thread, here a short version.

• Married Japanese woman
• Moved to Japan in 2006
• Intend to stay but never know what the future brings
• Japan has its pros and cons. Very low crime rate
• me before living in Japan = aggressive, meat eating foreigner
• me after 11 years Japan = aggressive meat eating foreigner

How did you know that I was a foreigner? I could have been a English speaking Japanese dude.

Yeah. Sorry to disappoint you. I hope you still like me though. :)
If it means anything I can use chopsticks and speak Japanese as good as a native Japanese person.

Well, your real name doesn't sound very Japanese

[FlyingTomahawk]

@lilbud

Damn Futura theme.

Not sure, maybe your phrasing. You just type like a native English speaker. Thanks for the answer by the way. I don't mean to pry into your private life.

[lilbud]

@FlyingTomahawk You are never required to put your real name in your main theme.xml files. I just put my user name and my email

[AlexMurphy]

@lilbud How will people know where to send the cheques?

[lilbud]

@AlexMurphy Easy, just send them to:
Sesame St, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, 90210

(If you get the references right, you get internet points.)

[AlexMurphy]

@lilbud Baywatch? Right?

[lilbud]

@AlexMurphy

[AlexMurphy]

@lilbud Thanks for the Trump! Yeah I get it Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers and Beverly Hills 90210. Where every kid in high school was over 30.

[lilbud]

@AlexMurphy They are running a Mr. Rogers Marathon over on Twitch

[AlexMurphy]

@lilbud Did he not get arrested for drunk and disorderly behaviour at some point? Maybe that is an urban myth.

[lilbud]

@AlexMurphy Yeah, that is a myth. He supposedly never drank or smoked and was a vegetarian. If there was someone like that today, they would be shunned from society

[AlexMurphy]

@lilbud Well, Hitler was a vegetarian. But Joe Stalin ate meat, so, who knows. Just don't be a genocidal maniac.
