i do go to the bathroom while playing tron - i do not lie :D

ever wondered what i mean by "technical break"? now you know... guess i'll start calling it "pit stop" lol :mrgreen:

i've become very adept at being fast though, i try to wedge the break between dying early and the next round starting...

I've done that before. I do it with snacking too. I'll run to the refridgerator as quick as possible and hope I get back in time for the next round.

6. while you're watching the movie Tron, you complain about the light cycle scene being done "all wrong".
brilliant list, and #6 agreed... i've thought of that, too... they didn't quite do their research, did they?

BTW, is someone telling me bedpans weren't made for tron?? :o

LOL, i hadn't thought of that. ugh, couldn't i have just shut up in the first place?

people playing "army" on laptops gives me a funny idea: let's say you want to illustrate how people are going overboard with too much games and technology. you could show something like a stretch of desert highway, then something fast approaching, then it blurs by and is clear enough to tell it's a motorcycle, very cool and impressive of course and the biker seems totally focused on his driving...

then you cut away to a shot from the biker's POV and you see he has a game gear or something mounted on his dashboard and the game that he's currently playing is a motorcycle simulator.

my head's kind of fuzzy right now, but maybe someone else can flesh out another 'ad'.

Oh yeah, the snack run... Dodge all the furniture. To the kitchen as kick as you can! Not on the counter, look in the fridge! Fill up your bottle of water, take it back with your food. Oh no! Forgot to set away, you're about to die! Drop everything to save yourself! Ahhh, you're alive but your covered in food. That'll start to smell soon. A quick run to the laundry room!

I notice that sometimes armagoshdarn will log me out if I am away for too long. I'll come back to the game and I'll be disconnected.

So, just a warning to all of you other hungry people out there!

And to those of you who have to take a "bathroom break" - and that break had better not be about kittens, if so, I don't want to know about it! :wink:
