Yeah, well, Pinback's world of programming peaked when he wrote the on-demand rooms in Annoyotron, and he's been doing nothing but hurling savage insults at others since then.

I dunno....you're not registered. You could be a gimmick poster. You could even be Pinback in disguise.

GCE this year -- you up for this shit or not? Vegas, Jonsey, One of the Bruces, Pin "Pinner" Back, and whoever else that decides to pump it the hell up. Old video games, old video game references, the extra room we have to rent for Bruce's beard, and, right, BEAUTIFUL BABIES after the nerds put the expo to bed at 4:00pm. You in with this or not?
(Also, if you'd like to experience what it was like for me to type the above message, go get "Out the Window" by Bowling for Soup, and play it really loudly. It's the second most annoying song I've heard today, but in a good way.)
Do I actually have to GO to any "old video game" convention or whatever it is? Or can I just kick it at the poker table and brewpub all day while you get your Yar's Revenge on?
It seems to be on my birthday. I'll give it a go, if finances are decent around then and plane tickets aren't too bad. I'd be interested in seeing these people especially:
MR. DON BLUTH
MR. DAVID CRANE
THE FAT MAN & TEAM FAT
MR. GARRY KITCHEN
It'd definitely be something to do. At least, I know there will be more to do than at the Midwest Classic.

Yeah, sure. That's a real tentative "sure" based on the presumption that I won't have to be on site elsewhere then, and I can afford a cheap ticket on SWA, and that it really is in the budget then.
We might not have to get an extra room for my beard; he's slimming down so I get fewer anal probes going to Italy next week. I may or may not grow him out again.
And if Worm doesn't drink, well, I can make up for him. Are we all going to wear suits the entire weekend, Reservoir Dogs style?

SURE!!! IF YOU WANT TO MISS OUT ON ALL THE FUN LOL
Maybe we can meet up for dinner.
Dinner? Fag. I'm buying a cache of "power pills" the day of the event and swilling them down with cans of "Mr. Mountain Do!" until either the event is over or my heart gives out.
Who's with me, if we just happen to decide to get shitfaced and then <i><b>kick the living shit</b></i> out of him in a hotel stairwell?
What's your beef with this guy again? Is it his games? Look, if I decided that I was going to punch every guy who made a shitty video game in the face -- if I were to make that my life's work -- I'd be as empty and depressed as Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged there in "Life, the Universe and Everything."
You mentioned something about alcohol and violence in there, though, so without really getting into the specifics, I should state that I am "with you." I've "got your back," as the kids love to say.

No, you stupid shitbag.

It's because when he reviewed <i>The Lost Treasures of Infocom</i> he basically said, "This SuXX0rZ! Remakes of these games <i>might</i> be cool if they remade them, like, with spiffy graphics."
Go play <i>Sins Against Mimesis</i> to see The Kunkel in action.
