    Ugh; Craigslist sucks.. you have to have a super-complicated password and half the people seem to flake out on you.

      b:no, I changed my mind

      a: oh, when was that,

      It's more like 99.9% of the people flake on you.  Zero courtesy.  This video by Drew Gooden sums it up pretty nicely...Applies to facebook marketplace, craigslist, etc.

    I like when a quarterback points downfield to a supposedly wide open receiver and then throws an embarrassing interception.

      Who are some QBs you noticed do that the most?

    2. retrorussell

      retrorussell

      @Joe C. I'm not sure about one in particular that does that a lot but I see it from younger qbs more often perhaps.  Could be a poorly run route by the WR, could just be an awful throw (more likely).. but the DB has plenty of time to get in position.  Makes me laugh.

    Gonna rent out rooms in my house.  Not a social person by any means but those rooms are empty and not makin' me any money.  If you're in the Portland OR metro area and need a room..

      Decades ago my mom did that and we always caught this one guy in the closet doing the stuff.

    Loving those CollegeHumor Batman videos.  Hilarious!

    Man, Sypha is getting annoying in the Castlevania Netflix series.  Her powers seem to have ripped off Iron Man lately!

    Stupid rain driving the stupid ants indoors.. I mean, they are really stupid!  Going anywhere but where the food crumbs are..

      we've been playing millipede over here...not on a game system though...

    Having a crappy phone charger port sucks.  Having Cricket trying to tell you to buy a new phone sucks even harder.  Get bent!

    So many great arcade ports for the Colecovision.  Outside of that, so much crap for the Colecovision.

    1. Cobra Kai

      Cobra Kai

      I know, it has some awesome games. Ultimately it's the controllers that ruin it for me. I think I trade my Coleco setup to someone here for a TG16 system. Way back when the two were comparable in value. 

    2. retrorussell

      retrorussell

      Yeah, the controllers are garbage-- especially the Super Action controllers.  FOUR trigger buttons??  And a 12 button keypad..  Way too complicated.

  10. retrorussell

    Your vision is our vision!  COLECOVISION!

    Any time I think of the song "Paloma Blanca" I think of it being about Blanka from Street Fighter II.  Rahr!  Rahr!

    This was my first purchase from a wings store today.  Wingstop was surprisingly good!

      Wingstop is great!  Try the Atomic if you're feeling super brave.  I can only have about 3 before the suffering is too great.  :)

      Nope; super hot is not really my thing.  I have been told Korean BBQ was really good.  I was most pleased with the seasoning on their fries and their ranch.

    I still can't look at the sports word GOAT and not think "a player that cost their team a victory".

    The status update window doesn't seem to work too often these days.  Usually I click on it and nothing happens.

      Hasn't worked on my iPad (latest iOS) for a while. Have to go to your profile to post a status update. Software so broken these days, new normal it seems.

      @Random Terrain I have Windows 10.  It used to work no problem but it's messed up lately.  I click in the box and nothing happens at all.

      I have the same problem.  It will work sometimes but most of the time it doesn't.

    Sledge Hammer: This is for that little kid's piggy bank! (punches terrorist)

    And this is for hittin' me! (punches him again)

    And this is for callin' me names! (punches again)

    And this is for ordering pizza! (punches again)

    And this is for makin' me hold hands with another guy! (punches again, then punches terrorist again)

    Terrorist: What was THAT for???

    Sledge Hammer: That was gratuitous.

    I'm trying to do a "top 20" series of Intellivision videos.. but man, the controls are so horrid for that system.  Too many damn buttons!

    1. LS650

      LS650

      Depends on the game I think.  The disc and the numeric keypad are fine, it's those awful side buttons.  Some games are well-designed to avoid the side-buttons: sports games, Astrosmash, Q*bert, Night Stalker, Shark Shark, etc.

      I would have reported it for you, but, I'm not having the issue and the devs will likely have questions.

      Thanks; I'll post and see what they say.
