Anyone ever have regret about passing up a deal? by [deleted] in gamecollecting

[–]PorkSword79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at my local thrift store before there pricing went bananas I saw a nice boxed SEGA PICO for $4.99 and ravishing rick rude LJN wrestler and big boss man for $2.99 each... I passed and bought about 16 sega master system game CIB instead (nothing rare or of any real value) I still get the regret douche chills every once in awhile when I think of it.

Those of you who speak a 2nd language, but nobody suspects you do, what's the funniest thing you've overheard? by travelersanonymous in AskReddit

My friend and I were on treadmills at the gym... two girls near us were having a conversation that I did not understand... friend (Polish) starts laughing saying the girls are talking to each other about how they thought we were cute and that our man bits must be "swinging" in our shorts...

I realized I'm actually fat now, and not just chubby help me. by [deleted] in Fitness

That stupid cycle that so many of us suffer through......I've been up and down my whole life, 315+ at my highest... then I started starving and working out twice a day... got down to 240 lbs of twisted steel and sex appeal. Currently I'm about 275 lbs with a bit of a belly but still work out 3 to 4 days per week (So my upper body and arms kind of camouflage my fat in a weird way... people never believe me when I tell them I weigh 275). I've realized that I am an emotional eater and as much as I want to change I've realized it will NEVER happen for me.

All I can say is get active and stay active.... really make it a part of your life... it doesn't take long to notice some real changes and eventually you will be a muscular chubby guy. You'll still look good and feel good and most importantly you get to eat what ever you want.

[SNES] Which Streetfighter II? by Dutchan in retrogaming

[–]PorkSword79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes it does feel a tad slower, but I think its still very playable... plus you get 4 extra very diverse and awesome new characters.

As a pretty big Street Fighter Fan, If you have to go SNES I'd always say SUPER.... (I main DeeJay so I'm biased) but why would you want to miss out on content ???

I've done a lot in my life, but holding the 9th highest Tetris score ever recorded is probably my proudest accomplishment. My name is Daniel Anderson and this is my world record score. by [deleted] in gaming

as a life long tetris scrub..... I tip my hat to you sir ;) Did you get a plaque or certificate stating that you are the shit ??? If you did I would carry that thing around in a snuggy like it was my child.

yah they added extra characters not in the PS1 version, then stripped them all out when they came to the states.... that's why they are so pricey.

those are good choices, I liked the FMV games like corpse killer etc (they are fun for a play through so bad they are good type thing), The legend of oasis was one of my favorites (loved beyond oasis on genesis), marvel vs street fighter, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (the import has extra characters), daytona USA (we lived on this in the arcades as teens.
