  1. Everything makes me feel old :cry:

    Aww. *Pats you on the head.*

    But seriously, I don't feel bad about it, it just feels strange to think of myself as having lived through so much...I mean, in 50 years, S'Mario 64 won't just be old school, it'll be part of the golden oldies of gaming. And people might not even BOTHER with the old Sonic games...*cries a river.*

  2. I was listening to some Cave Story tracks last night, reminiscing, when I remembered my first portable game: Super Mario Land for the Game Boy.

    Then I thought about what's out now.

    Then I felt like an old $^&%^*#ing geezer. Seriously, I'm 18 years old, I haven't even hit my prime, but I'm just realizing that I've witnessed, like, four or five major revolutions in portable gaming over my lifetime. I mean, that doesn't compare to old men and women remembering WWII, but DAMN.

    Am I the only one here who feels this way sometimes? Old, I mean.

  3. I think this technology would allow vandalism go to a completely new stage...e.g. drawing a penis that's the size of 1 fucking nano. I like

    But...how would anyone ever know?

    Like, if one night some drunk scientists broke out their lasers and started drawing on the Mona Lisa, and the next morning all of her teeth were covered with macroscopic penises (peni?), how would we know?

    Or if some nerd knocked his friend out the night before April Fool's, went crazy, and the next morning:

    Nerd: Pfhahhahahaha--*coughs.*

    Friend: What?

    Nerd: Oh, nothing.

    Friend: ...You're weird.

    Nerd: *Laughing again.*

    Friend: Okay, seriously, what?

    Nerd: *Cracks up.* I--hahahah--I drew--hahahhahahahah!--I drew a penis on a cell on your face! *Laughs hysterically.*

    Friend: D=!

    :-|

  4. Ha.

    Hahaha.

    HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

    -_-. Sorry. But honestly, she's quoted in the article as saying that she "misspoke." She also made these statements based on ONE ignorant prude's testimony. That ain't journalism, folks.

    "Irate gamers have flooded the page on Amazon.com selling Ms. Lawrence’s most recent book, “The Cult of Perfection: Making Peace With Your Inner Overachiever,” sending its user-generated rating into oblivion."

    *Breaks into hysterical laughter once again.*

  5. Well, I don't know much about Xenogears or genetic science, but...if they're physically etching this thing onto DNA particles with a laser, then...the DNA itself wouldn't be changed.

    Sooo...I can definitely see this as a new method for data transfer and storage--the current flash drives, and most stuff that comes after, would be rendered obsolete.

    However, unless the DNA sequence itself were changed, physical etchings on a single particle would not be duplicated onto subsequent versions; i.e., kids wouldn't get this info.

    Then again, if this becomes practical, then a whole new method of secret method transfer would become possible--picture spies with the DNA on, say, one of their fingernails "etched" with potential terabytes of information.

    Thanks for the news post; this is really interesting!
