MY OPINION MATTERS:
God I love Ground Kontrol. I haven’t been there in forever. I need a trip. Tomorrow maybe. Who’s wit me?
Remember when you weaseled your parents out of every quarter you could, only to blow them all on Pac-Man? Space Invaders? Defender? The latest cartridge for your Atari, ColecoVision, or Nintendo system?
Now that you don’t need your parents’ permission or a month’s allowance, one place still has all your favorites: Ground Kontrol, the Pacific Northwest’s best collection of arcade and home video game classics.
Play over ninety of the greatest video games and pinball machines. Buy home video game systems old and new. Feed your inner childhood geek.

So kickass. Yet another reason to get my Steel Battallion controller out of storage and rocking again.
Trixie: What’s that baby? You’re a Level 5 Chaotic Evil Half-Orc? Oh, that makes me so hot. I’m a Lawful Neutral Druidic Monk with +5 melee range, Boots of Levitation, and a big, sharp Vorpal Sword. I want you to cast a saving throw, baby! Roll your twelve-sided die and cast it! Cast it!
Christy: So, what’s your name?
Warren: Warren Grabowski.
Christy: Help me, Warren Grabowski, you’re my only hope.
Warren: I like that. Tell me I’m a nerf herder!
Christy: You know what you are, Warren? You’re a stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf herder.
Warren: Oh, God, yes!
Candy: You know what time it is, baby? It’s the Vulcan mating season of Pon Farr. Much like the eel-birds of Regulus V, if I don’t find a mate, I’ll die.
Trekkie: I’m giving myself the Vulcan Nerve Pinch right now. Oooooh!
Candy: Oooh, yeah, I like that. I wanna do something logical to you, baby.
Trekkie: Ooh, that’s nice!
Lexis: You’ve been a bad Hobbit, haven’t you?
Hobbit: I have been a bad Hobbit, yes.
Lexis: Well, bad Hobbits get sent to Mordor.
Hobbit: But I want to go back to the Shire. Take me back to Eriador.
Lexis: Oh, you’re going to Mordor, all right. First we’re going all the way to Minas Morgul.
Hobbit: Okay, that’s good.
Lexis: We’re going to take the long way around the plateau of Golgoroth.
Hobbit: Okay, I can’t take it!
Lexis: Then we’re going right to the tippy-top of Barad-Dûr.
Hobbit: Yes!- Saturday Night Live 30x11
This episode was so painful (with a few exceptions, one being this). But oh man, these images. I love it.
Classic Fey-as-Leia.
One of my favorite sketches from that era
PC vs. Mac…
This is always the core for my stance on Apple. People really don’t seem to grasp this. #1. Microsoft does not make computers. #2. The parts in an Apple computer are the exact same as you can get in a PC. #3. The price gap? Case design and a different OS are never worth the margin we see.
PC people also often don’t realize that buying a $300 E-Machine might have a downside (BSOD - Blue screens of death - Which are really hardware and not software errors.) Apple people then make the mistake of thinking all PC users do this or that an old PC they had, and hated, that they paid little for somehow is worth comparison. Should I compare every Mac to the Apple garbage of the 90’s?
Apple has a higher quality level (for the same components), better case design and… well, that’s it. Oh yeah, a higher profit margin. There is a reason that high end PC users find Mac users smug and ignorant. It is virtually the same way that a Mac user looks at a low end PC user.
Reblogged for truth. My gaming PC has better parts and is more powerful than, for example, my brother’s mac but it cost a quarter of the price.
