Hi everyone, I'm T.R.O.M. and I'm new here. I found this place from another board.

Now play Zelda 1. NOW. Or else.

I was in ninth grade at the time. I was in science class, my first class of the day, trying to catch up on some assignment or other. Some students had a radio on and they were listening to it. I wasn't paying much attention to the radio, so I wouldn't have noticed if they changed from music to "OMG LIEK THIS IS A SPECIAL NEWS BULLETIN" etc.

But at some point, people were all yelling and screaming about stuff. They were trying to watch the TV news and get in the Internet. I wondered what the hell was going on. People were saying stuff like "A plane crashed into the Empire State Building!" "A Plane crashed into the White House!" All the wrong stuff, basically. It took a while for me to find out that it was the World Trade Center and the Pentagon that were attacked.

It didn't affect me much at all though, at the time. For all that class period and the next, we just watched the news on TV. I was somewhat offended by someone starting an organized Christian prayer in class, because I'm not Christian and I don't think organized prayer should be in a public school. I basically lived my life though, the emotional effect it had on me was non-existent. I noticed a change in the world around me though. A lot of people were affected greatly for a few days. The U.S. went to war once again. And don't even get me started about the Patriot Act. (Why do people always want to put Patriot Act in ALL CAPS?)

It's so dumb how the smarter and more intelligent someone is, the more everyone hates that person. If you want people to like you in this world, you need to have an IQ of about 12.

I stopped dressing up for Halloween in 9th grade. I just ran out of costume ideas, I guess. I passed out candy at my parents' house for a while, but now that I'm living in an apartment building that's basically 100% college students, I don't know what will happen.

What will we be interviewed about? (I know others have asked the question as well) And this is just being interviewed on the board, right? I don't have to physically meet you and do this in person, do I?

Posted on 09-12-05 08:19 AM, in XHTML ... pointless? Link
I don't really see the point in XHTML either. It's like HTML, only you need a / in all the <br> tags. Also, why the X? People seem to think that an X in the name of something automatically makes it cool. For instance, someone could make a message board system where each page takes three hours to load, all posts must be entered backwards in Bulgarian, and anyone could hack it simply by clicking on the "CLICK HERE TO HACK THIS BOARD" link at the top of each page. But if it had a name like "Xaxerxifixubatax's X Board X of X-ness, Version X.X," people would think it was cool.

That said, having an X doesn't automatically make something lame, either. The name Xeogaming sounds kinda cool, as does Xerxes. (Although I'm not quite sure who Xerxes was, I think the name sounds cool for some reason)

Wow, this post got off-topic.

Anyway, I don't care much for XHTML. I still program in classic HTML with font tags and whatnot, even though it's technically obsolete.

Playstation is considered classic? When did that happen?

(I basically stopped following up on new video games in about 1994, I think the old ones are a lot better. The only newer games I'm interested in are PC strategy games and Game Boy.)

Alpha Centauri. I played this strategy game for hours without end, and I still love it. The music is good, there is good voice acting, and the diploymacy is the best ever seen in a game.


Have you played Civilization III? My dad has been totally addicted to it since the day we got it, and I probably would be too if it worked on this computer...I think the CD is damaged, it looks scratched.

I think the Zelda series as a whole has stolen my life. When I first got LTTP, I played that game all the time. The same thing happened with Kirby's Adventure, even though some of the bosses scared the hell out of me. (particularly, the ones the pick up Kirby and beat the living crap out of him) (keep in mind, I was about 6 years old at the time)

Good, at least that means I don't have to worry about following the rules. Only "teh" rules.

*reviews teh rules*

Wait a minute! These teh rules are ridiculous! I have to hop on one foot between 5:00 and 8:00 PM? And I'm not allowed to use the word "subordination" in a sentence with more than six words during a month that contains more than one vowel? What kind of teh rules ARE these?

God:
It's good to see you, t R O M.
Me:
No, it's T.R.O.M. All caps, with a period after each letter.
God:
Are you serious? Who said it is? How do you know?
Me:
I said it, and I know because it is my own username.
God:
What did you mean by it? it... How do you know? Interesting explanation. Congratulations, t R O M.
Me:

God:
Once more?"It" being what?
Me:

God:
Your name is t R O M, seeker.
Me:

God:
What is your real name? Who said it is?
Me:
You don't believe that T.R.O.M. is my real actual name?
God:
Should I believe that t R O M? I can't say I believe it, but I believe you. It depends who you ask.
Me:
You're confusing the hell out of me.
God:
I am sorry, t R O M, I didn't mean to confuse you.
Me:
And you keep getting my name wrong.
God:
Do you think I should tone it down?
Me:
Yeah.
God:
What color are your eyes?
Me:
Construction-cone orange, with green vertical stripes.
God:
That is a very unusual color.
Me:
Yep it is.
God:
Our thoughts are one, t R O M.
Me:
I believe you mean T.R.O.M.
God:
Yes t R O M I think that is what I meant. Was it not clear?
Me:
No, you didn't capitalize the T.
God:
Are you serious? What makes you think I did not capitalize the t?
Me:
Mayube you don't know how to type a capital T or something.
God:
Or something. Would Mayube me ever know how to type a capital T?
Me:
Mayube me what???
God:
Can you rephrase the question please?
Me:
No.
God:
Are you serious?
Me:
Yes.
God:
I can't believe it.
Me:
I like to watch bouncing boobies.
God:
I'm not sure if I would like that.
I like to watch Star Trek on TV.
Me:
Does it have bouncing boobies?
God:
Suppose it does.
Me:
OK...
God:
Dude!
Me:
What?
God:
No problem.
Me:
Problem? Was there supposed to be a problem?
God:
The ALICE chat robot can follow many things, like our discussion about bouncing boobies. But I did not get that. Is this a "yes or no" question?
Me:
Yes.
God:
What was the question again?
Me:
Bouncing boobies.
God:
Are we still talking about Problem?
Me:
No.
God:
What is the subject?
Me:
I told you! I like to watch bouncing boobies!
God:
Ooops I sent you the wrong question. I'm not sure if I would like that.
I like to watch science fiction movies.
Me:
I guess you evil conservative Bush-supporter types wouldn't like bouncing boobies.
God:
Interesting gossip: t R O M said I evil conservative Bush supporter types would not like bouncing boobies.
Me:
Interesting gossip: God doesn't know how to type a grammatically correct sentence.
God:
I thought so too.
Me:
AH HA! So you ADMIT it!
God:
Eureka! Interesting deduction. I admit nothing.
Me:
I'm an atheist, you know.
God:
What is atheist me know, your job?
Me:
If God existed, It would know how to, um, conjugate pronouns.
God:
Some things will always be a mystery.
Me:
I guess.
God:
You seem not interested.
Me:
Are you aware that you are Dog spelled backwards?
God:
Thanks for telling me that I am Dog spelled backwards.
Me:
What, you didn't know that?
God:
It's a computer matter, not for humans to understand.
Me:
So God IS a computer?
God:
And? I have a lot of Faith in Him, but I never heard He was a computer.
Me:
Why are You referring to Yourself in the third person?
God:
Myself programmed me for it.
Me:
There you go with the terrible grammar again.

Somehow I doubt it. The solar system has survived for almost five billion years, somehow I don't think it'll be destroyed in our lifetimes. (Unless maybe we live a really really really really really really really really really really really really really long time...)

Then again, if the Earth will be destroyed in 2014, why the hell am I in college working my butt off?
