  1. Computer Teacher: "Did you just say 'bye uh nairy?' Give me your nerd card so I can rip it up! It's 'bye nuh ree' in the UK (rhymes with 'winery') and 'bye nairy' in the USA (rhymes with 'bye Mary.')"

    1. x=usr(1536)

      x=usr(1536)

      That begs the question: 'tern ur ree' or 'tern-a-rye'?

       

      I'm in the former camp, but have heard both used.

      A supper bowl is what you put food in for eating the last meal of the day.

  5. So when will the PS5 have games that use Unreal Engine 5.1?

      And I thought UE 4 was impressive.

  6. Did you know that Albert "AtariAge" Yarusso was a programmer on the game Deus Ex in the year 2000?

      Deux Ex has aged like wine, and I'd rather play that over Metal Gear Solid 2.

  7. Somebody told me that you like ABC. Here you go:

  11. Finally got done fixing the HTML errors on every page of my web site. Each page was checked using validator.w3.org. Now I can get back to work on my Atari 2600 release date pages or the Atari 2600 game I was working on.

  12. One does not simply put the ram in the rama lama ding dong.

      I do know the answer...Lessee,  Who created alcohol?   Not gonna look it up,  probably some Trappist monks or something...

  13. The "Interactive TIA Color Charts and Tools" page has been updated. I checked it with validator.w3.org and it claims there are no errors on that page now.

      Thanks for this resource. I use it all the time.

      Did they mention video games as a fad?

      But Yahoo is a word....as is Jacoby.  If someone is acting very much like Jacob,  you need to tell them to stop being so Jacoby.         (Yahoo it)

      Stop being so CORBy!

  17. Just finished watching "The Wizarding World of Warlock Willy." It was as wistfully waggish as one would want.

      Wow!

      I believe it to be off the coast of Cuba (about 48 miles)...

  19. Had a dream last night where I was watching a mockumentary and they were digging in a cave, pretending to look for ancient technology. They were going to build a fake railgun to pretend to find, but they actually found an ancient railgun that was partially exposed along the cave wall. So the mockumentary turned into a documentary. Of course, I woke up soon after and didn't get to see more cool stuff.

      You might try the dream thread sometime.  I don't post there all of the time, but I enjoy it.  Sometimes I'd wake up from a bad dream,  post there before going back to bed, and then I'd have good dreams for the rest of the night :)  It's like an odd therapy...

  20. How was I to know there was a party goin' on?

      It's your house.  I think you should know if there's a dialectic party going on.

  21. If you want people to think you're smart, make sure every 5th word you say is "dialectic."

      I know that book, Dialectics by L Ron Howard...

  22. Shrek got mauled by ball-less collies. Fa la la la la, la la la la.

  23. Finally got around to watching "Joker" starring Joaquin Phoenix. Holy YUCK, Batman.

      Yep!

       

       

       

  24. I'm watching Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016). When did Holly Hunter start looking like Harvey Keitel when he was in Pulp Fiction?
