A nice cup of rabies

I think that calls for this.

Mine is too large.

From:

Overall I would rather not have one, but I've learnt to be happy with what I've got. Now that I'm generally happy I don't have the urge to cut it off or anything.

It helps that my boyfriends treat me as a completely female person!

From:

I'm indifferent to my own.

From:

What is this, some sort of midget?

From:

Who is this? What's your operating number?

It's a Mega Midget Racer!

From:

You left me behind. I could have handled any incarnation of any Dune quote in reply, but I don't know what this is.

From:

Star Wars (1977)

[Han answers the intercom after comandeering an attack station]
Han Solo: [sounding official] Uh, everything's under control. Situation normal.
Voice: What happened?
Han Solo: [getting nervous] Uh, we had a slight weapons malfunction, but uh... everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you?
Voice: We're sending a squad up.
Han Solo: Uh, uh... negative, negative. We had a reactor leak here now. Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Large leak, very dangerous.
Voice: Who is this? What's your operating number?
Han Solo: Uh...
[Han shoots the intercom]
Han Solo: [muttering] Boring conversation, anyway.

From:

Ultraken! I just said that I'd recognize any version of any quote from any incarnation of Dune, what are the chances I wouldn't recognize a Star Wars quote? No, it was the mega midget racing thing that neither know the origin of or it's intended relationship to the Star Wars quote.

Also, thank you again for putting the rave cannon in the lunar lander in Battlezone. Still think it's amazing that something that amused me so in my early PC abusing days was the direct result of someone who I see talking regularly. Its like you reached your hand through time and space to make me giggle.

From:

That was, admittedly, unfair of me. But it was the very first thing that popped into my head.

The Mega Midget Racer (http://www.amiga-hardware.com/showhardware.cgi?HARDID=64) has nothing to do with either Dune or Star Wars.

From:

That's... wow, there it is and I still don't really know what it is. My family's first computer had a 133mhz processor, so I'm guessing this...whatever it was... was from the start of the 90s? I mean, it looks with a complete motherboard without any expansion slots, and built in ram, but it says it plugs into a CPU slot, when they aught to be saying whether its AT or ATX formfactor...

From:

It's an expansion for the Amiga 500 and 2000. Both of these came natively with a 68000 running at 7MHz (or was it 10? It's been a long time); this sits in the CPU socket and gives you a 68030 running rather faster than that, and the possibility of a floating-point coprocessor. And a daughterboard for it (which would be, I guess, a grand-daughterboard of the actual motherboard this was sitting on) could have added more RAM.

This object makes me feel old, as I can remember when this kind of CPU upgrade was incredibly expensive and lightning fast. Now even PDAs and smartphones are in the gigahertz range of speeds and you can probably get more power than a tricked-out Amiga could ever muster on three chips.

ps. "ought"

...pretty low, I'd say, so I was somewhat baffled. :D

I assumed the Mega Midget Racing was pure randomness and didn't think anything of it.

Battlezone and Battlezone 2 were pretty much my formative experiences in the game industry. Why else would I still use the ISDF insignia? :)

The Rave Gun was classic BZ1-era Ultraken, when I spent late nights at work because I had nothing better to do and I had only dialup Internet access at home. The Rave Gun was just one of many random things that resulted. I wish I still had the original rave loop it used...

From:

There should be some sort of Easter egg hall of fame it entitles you entry to :P

From:

That'd be neat. :)

I haven't made any interesting Easter eggs since then, though.

From:

What games and studios have you worked for since then, if a fanboy can gush?

From:

At Pandemic Studios...
Battlezone 2
Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Star Wars Battlefront
Star Wars Battlefront 2
An unannounced title :)
Mercenaries 2: World In Flames (helping out for a couple months)

I ~~left~~ got laid off the end of October last year, and now I work at a little company called Armature Studio. I can't talk about what I'm working on, though. They're real sticklers for that.

From:

What about the offers for bigger boobs?

Sometimes, you get those offers at the same time. Though I've never seen them in the same e-mail at least.

From:

The Internet used to try to sell me bigger boobs, too. Not any more. Now all I get is offers of bigger penises.

(and v1@gr@ and other perscription drugs, and pirated software, and incomprehensible Cyrillic spam with pictures of cute cats.)

I've seen ones that offer meds that do both at the same time.

From:

I second this motion an am embarrassed I did not introduce it myself.

From:

I will hold your hand and you can hide behind me and we can both look!

From:

Hmm... what's a sound effect appropriate to an implausibly large cock flopping on the ground? Oh, I got it.
