In 1982, Britain fought Argentina over the Falkland Islands. Arnold Schwarzenegger starred as "Conan the Barbarian." And the Commodore 64 premiered at $600, underselling rivals in the emerging personal computer market.
In a way, the 80's are kinda similar to modern-day times.----Severin

I still remember my Commodore 64 and I must admit that sometimes, while I'm waiting the five seconds it takes on this comp for some hi tech game to boot up, I miss the days when I'd sit for an hour and listen to the audio tape squealing and pinging on my C64 as I waited for Ghostbusters to load up.

Yeah, I've noticed the last couple/few threads Mal has started has had description lines like that on them. The problem I have with them is that they could possibly cause misfitopia to become blocked by my employer, or possibly get me fired.
No.

yes, not like all the times the words: cunt, fuck, cock, pussy, douche, etc. etc. are used on the site.

so far, i haven't actually used any swear words.

I get the impression that the words in the sub-titles are there to aid in search engine listings, which are more likely to come up in Websense, than the occasional word in a thread.

Plus it makes you look juvenile, but maybe that's just my interpretation.
No.

i was doing it to add to the bizarre search terms for the site.

It's already banned by my employer so swear away.

Also, any filter that allows the carnalvarium should be okay with creamed sausage and Dick Cheney.

A discerning search engine should look at the content of the page to see if it supports the content of the title. That said, I love me some creamed corn sausage.

More importantly, I loved the Commodore 64. I don't remember anyone paying for a game. We had disks with tons of awful games that we traded around. The worse the game, the more I played it.

I used to have a commodore 64 in my room in 1996. It was a freaking old crappy computer back then now it is 25. Mine broke a couple years back. The games on it were freakin' sweet though. I think your title thingies are funny Mal.

I found Impossible Mission to be true to its name. I could've used a site like GameFAQs back then.
