      'Rob A Taxi' is another. So expanding your idea ... Tiara wearing pigs have to rob taxis! I must have been in hte same room as you lads. I've been inhaling your leftovers.

      I once owned 2 Xobiratas!...The first one spent so much time in the shop, I bought a second one just for parts. But, ya know, if you change the oil regularly and get a tune up right off the bat, they're OK.

      No wonder! I was going call bullshit for a mother being so cavalier about video games... but, it makes sense because they were not her quarters. LOL

      hah! Just came off of a nice 2600 session of Dragonfire, Franky's Monster and ye old Gravitar ... with a few wines and vodka under the belt. I swear I played Grav better with my wonky inner gyro compensating for the games wonky gravity! :)

      Wouldn't it be great if we could have a thread about this critical subject, that directly affects the entire planet, that has social and political implications, without it getting closed because the mods are cowards who let their politics guide their decision making?

    3. Albert

      Wouldn't it be great if people could talk about this subject without overtly politicizing it?  That sure would be something.  Or you could just be a coward about it and complain about moderation in status updates.

      The COVID-19 threads were locked because each and every one devolved into political bickering, conspiracy theories, fearmongering, and potentially harmful misinformation.  I know this is a topic that is on everyone's minds right now, but a small handful of people have ruined the discussion for everyone else because they can't follow the rules.

  5. Can someone please take out @Magmavision2000 before he starts another nondescript food thread! ?

      Likewise. The only way to watch it imo, is to carefully observe and listen to Nacho and his off sider Steve. Watching their mannerisms and the way they act. Changes the whole movie aspect. Otherwise, it would be a pretty ordinary flick. I've turned many a person over to this movie using this method.

  10. If a Taco falls in a Tacorea and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

      "Tacorea" is usually what I suffer from shortly after eating tacos.

      I believe it makes a Crunching sound,  but  I'm not sure,... I wasn't around to hear it.

  16. Woo Hoo! After 30 years .. got me another copy of 2600 Asterix .. for a decent ebay $$, compared to the other stupid prices. Still cringed at the price though. An emotinal buy. Gr8 80's memories smashin' this little 2600 egg!

    1. BassGuitari

      BassGuitari

      Asterix, eh? Now that's one you don't hear about often!

    2. Spriggy

      Spriggy

      Yeh. Go figure. They deemed that Taz was not so relevant in Europe .. so went with Asterix? Pal .. Hence ended up down here. I remember liking the Asterix & Obelix books .. but the Tazy Devil seemed more relevant. Hindsight :) Either way ... Childhood memories!

      Down here meaning Oz.

  19. The 18th of August 2020 was a sad day.  The closing of the 'Atacobox' thread.  And it was my birthday of all things. :sad: In the end, Johnny Phelan got his "awesome" VCS.  At least something came good of it.

      It was fun watching him shill with his Awesome accent,...Good Times!

       

      The only way it could be better would be if @Spriggy and me joined him for a beer,  maybe added @Tickled_Pink, ... also maybe @Charlie Cat, @OldSchoolRetroGamer, and @SlidellMan, IDK someone from England...then we'd have lots of variations of English being spoken!

  20. Happy Australia Day to all the blokes and shiela's. ?:party:??

    "All I know is that I have a future financial decision to make: AtariBox or tacos?

    I'm going with tacos. They have a better chance of reaching production, and also taste better than plastic."
