"I'm buying Transformers toys because I think they're cool." That one should work.

Nope. Strike one.

Okay, how about "I'm buying Transformers toys because I think they're cool, and if you have any problems with it we can take this outside and solve it like Rowdy Roddy Piper and Keith David."
So you know how your granny felt when she was stomping you into the ground at Pac-Man. The closest my grandma ever came to a video game is when I taught her how to play solitaire on my Windows 95.Sustain wrote:My mother and Grandmother in their life times never had net. Mind you my mother's been passed for 10 years now. But she loved Super Nintendo, and Donkey Kong Country. While my Grandmother still played Atari 2600 till she passed which will be 3 years in December. I was never able to beat her at Pac-man, or Centipede.
Now,.. hehe. I whip my kid's butt on Guitar hero.

As for getting old, last night I did something I hadn't done in about 7 years. I went out and got blinding drunk. I wasn't planning to, but after 2 shots of Jack Daniel's Fireball and a double shot of Jack, I thought I could keep up with my 25-year-old cousin drink for drink and shot for shot. Big mistake. I've had a headache all day today. Ugh. And he wants me to do it all over again with him tonight, it being Halloween and all. If I do it, am I brave or stupid?
As it turns out, me neither. I ended up not going, and I'm glad I didn't, I don't think my brain could have taken another chemical assault like that. But it sure was a reminder that I'm not 20-something anymore.Sustain wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:As for getting old, last night I did something I hadn't done in about 7 years.

I'm not going to answer that. I'm not a drinker so I wouldn't go.

I just quote the late and great Ray Bradbury and say "I'm going to grow old but I'm never going to grow up!"

Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

Last Tuesday, in the car, A John Mellencamp song came on, or the Cougs, as I like to call him.
You know you're getting old when you think to yourself, ya know, the Cougs wrote some pretty dope grooves. I wasn't thinking of the words really, just the music.
So now I'm left asking myself, did he? Were they dope? Or Am I just old?

In your defence it could be just that I'm British? At least it works nine times out of ten whenever Burn PMs to chastise me about some offending remark or other. "It's not my fault, I'm just British. I was made this way."

"Groovy" never went out of style, Bruce Campbell has been keeping that one alive for decades.
