Like the kid in second grade who used to turn his eyelids inside out to get attention? *snort*

i loved that kid. he usually also could make the best fart noises with his hand under his armpit too. i could do neither of those things and instead had to rely on rapier wit, daring acts and pulling the chair out from underneath people
Neither of you were my favorites...
There was a lovely, sweet Kevin in my class though. He was mostly deaf, but had hearing aids. He was very cute. Once a boy named Tony was trying to beat up my friend Jenny and I (JUST because we were singing, "Strawberry Shortcake with your freckled face" at him. Anyway, Kevin came to my rescue and kicked Tony's ginger arse! Gotta love a guy who defends you even when you're being an idiot.

I think people should have to pass a test in order to have children. Too many idiot parents out there and some of what I see honestly scares me.
Or at least fill out some paperwork to be approved for it (like when I wanted to adopt my pups). Better yet, make them have to get a license to have kids. Which would create jobs. Damn this is good idea.
If you fail said test I contend that we have the right to cull your kind through unnatural selection at gunpoint.

There are so many reasons as to why I will never spawn mini Marks. The main reason though is that for at least fourteen years they will live exactly my life as it is now but with better technology and shittier television. Horrific.
ugh...don't remind me of the better technology and shittier television.Every time a child asks me "what's a Walkman?" or complains about hand-drawn animated movies vs. CGI....I die a little inside.
I felt so old the other day when I was on the bus and overhead a child asking his mother what Bugs Bunny was...
I feel bad for this generation. The entertainment *chokes on that word* being spewed out is horrific.
*puffs on pipe and tries to look wise* Back in my day, we didn't have these fancy-schmancy photo realistic video games like Call of Duty...no no....we had an 8-bit gorilla throwing flaming barrels at a plumber and that was good enough for us dagnabbit!!!
On the other hand...with digital television and my personal library I suppose I could home-school them and make them read books and watch old, decent shows.

Really, that child could be me. I do know who Bugs Bunny is, sort of, but not from firsthand knowledge. We never watched cartoons.

I swear with as many cartoons I watched in my childhood, I must have lost a great deal of brain cells ;)
Thankfully I tried to balance out my cartoon viewing habits with reading as well.
My son loves books more than t.v. We read books everyday. He does love to get down to some music from some of the cartoons. I must admit I do, too.
I will never procreate, because I no longer have a uterus.
Christopher, Donkey Kong is back...for the DS. I prefer the PS1 game campions of Norrath. Wish they made more like that! Or Qbert. I loved Qbert.
That whole "get a license to be a parent" is a bit in the movie parenthood with Steve Martin. Great film. That bit where the lights go out at family dinner? Classic!

Champions of Norrath, not "campions".
No, woobie is Mr. Mom with Michael Keaton...totally different. Good movie, not nearly as good as Parenthood IMO.
Damn. I totally f'ed that up.Baked cowboy.

He was always a cleric and I was always the wizard....ah sweet nostalgia :D
I'm always whoever had the biggest sword!
My daughter says Champions of Norrath, being a top down game, reminds her of Gauntlet."Wizard needs food, badly."
I loved Gauntlet.
Ah Gauntlet....I used to play a port of it back on my Commodore 64 back in the day.Red Dwarf needs food!
Amelia wrote: "Is Gauntlet playstation?"Gauntlet is arcade. You can play it alone or with up to three other people. It's top down, so you're watching the characters run through the scene as you control them. There are baddies to kill throughout the game, and treasures and food to collect. When your character dies, you have a certain amount of time to insert more coins for additional play.
I spent a lot of money on Gauntlet, then got to play for free when I got a job at the bowling alley.

I believe Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper should step down from office mainly because he repeteadly mispronounced the word "election" in French in the media. A french-language comedic show on national television (think The Daily Show), looped real footage of some of his statements during the last federal elections. Francophones understood him as saying bizarre things such as: that he was proud of the upcoming erections; that it was his duty to call an erection; that this general erection was important for the average worker; that during an erection, it is important to vote conservative, etc... Is this too severe or am I just being a language Nazi?

Oops, my cover might have to be blown. A Japanese woman is offering to bring me something that can only be purchased in Japan (no, not a blow up doll). Embarrassing! She is so sweet to offer.

First of all, thanks for the laugh. As far as asking him to step down, if he didn't do it intentionally, then are you saying that his mispronunciation makes him a poor Prime Minister?
