Man, laptops in 1992 seemed positively medieval. $3499 in 1992 USD for a 25 MHz 386SL notebook with a color VGA screen. I'm relatively sure the hard drive in this computer has a more powerful CPU. :P
Also, the laptop I'm typing on (the Core i7 monster) has the same footprint as two old issues of PC Mag placed side-by-side. Wut.

Lee: funny you should mention that. I've got a Texas Instruments 4000 WinDX2 color VGA laptop here with the screaming 486 DX2 40MHz 8MB option. I've located a memory upgrade for it and am getting a replacement battery and power supply, and looking to install Win95 on it. Thing cost as much as a new compact car when it was released.
Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
Forsythe: Wow, that sounds amazing. I wish I knew where my old 486 PCI board went to; it went MIA during the move in 2010 and I think it may have been trashed, but I don't know for sure.

kingCrackers: La-Mulana Party vs. Ocean King Party... WHO WILL WIN?
thenamelesssamurai: That's definitely understandable. I hope it goes well, too.
Argh, there's no cold drinks in the house. Now I have to wait a good 15 minutes or more for some water to chill down so I can make some myself. #firstworldproblems
I'm also re-reading CWC's "Story Of My Current Days", and y'know? This is not an adult talking. This is a 12-year-old going through puberty and having no idea what to do. That's how arrested his development is.

gummy alphabet
...used to be one of my favorite candies when I was little. Mostly because I liked the letter W. This makes perfect sense.

I find his comics to be fascinating because he throws himself so much into his comic, and makes that world conform to what he considers good and right. And considering his hardline stances on things, and the fact that his imaginary town's police force is supplemented by an entire Army division, it's not far off from North Korea.

I read it and posted in it. :)
And if you're worried about that, don't be. That statement accurately describes all the threads I've made here. Yes, even the Pokémon thread.

Yeah, today was an especially slow day for the forum. I kind of wonder why.
You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

I used to have a Moai head and a gargoyle. I might still have them, but I don't know where they are.
Speaking of gargoyles, lately I've been thinking about what might happen if I became one as part of a fantasy journey of self-discovery. This is kinda cool but still weird. I blame my new tarot deck.

You posted a picture of yourself and didn't show us your face.
Thus I am forced to conclude you are, in fact, Todd in the Shadows.
