From a focus group interview with a bunch of kids on retro gaming (courtesy of Slashdot). In this case, Street Fighter II: Champion Edition:

EGM: What do you think of that guy's hairstyle? [Points to Guile]

Parker: I think it's extremely 90s.

Bobby: He's a commando.

Dillon: That's very very, very retro, in his own ugly kind of way.

EGM: If you saw a guy like that at the mall...

Parker: I'd leave the store.

Bobby: I'd run away. I'd be afraid of getting his bad taste.

EGM: What store would he be shopping at?

Dillon: Hot Topic.

Bobby: Commandos R Us.

Hot Topic Guile, you say?



Naah. Could never happen.

OMFG!!!!!

That's micha

from cruciform injection. i know him well


hehehehheeheeee

[drcuriosity]

How did I know that someone I knew would recognise him?

He looks/sounds like a fun guy :-)

[elissa-carey.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he is. In fact, that song? Is deliberately aimed at Micah. At Gen Con of '03, Rob (Boyle) spun it at Radio Radio, and just about everyone sang it at Micah. It was hilariously fun.

[drcuriosity]

*grins* Yeah, I vaguely remember hearing something about that on Dumpshock once. I have to see if I can get along to GenCon one of these years. When I'm fabulously rich and famous, maybe ;-)

[elissa-carey.livejournal.com]

Well, you don't have to be fabulously rich... but having some extra money lying around to pay for hotel and plane tickets would help. That's usually the biggest expense. Badge, food and extras are the little things.

[drcuriosity]

Well, considering I'm looking at an airfare of around $2500 just to get over to your country, let alone getting to the right part of it and accommodated, and I currently have just enough of an income to pay university fees and live off... Maybe something to save up for next time I find myself in full-time work, no?

[anditron.livejournal.com]

but then you have the added bonus of an andi to take care of you in this part of the country. which means not spending all that money just for a weekend trip to the middle of Indiana but also being able to come up to Chicago for a bit. and oh, yeah, I could sort you out in Indiana as well seeing as, Indy is like kinda sorta home in a slightly roundabout way

=)

[drcuriosity]

Thanks, I'll bear that in mind should I ever be in your neck of the woods :-)
*hugs*

[desired-purity.livejournal.com]

I know the Gothsicles fairly well. They are quite the pair.

[drcuriosity]

I'm glad the world has amusing people in it.

Also, long time no see. It's been quite a while, hasn't it?

[desired-purity.livejournal.com]

Aye, it has been. My main journal is kaytya, if you would like to add me.

[drcuriosity]

Thank'ee :-)
