"The Green Mile". The book is also excellent.

Giant? That pistachio is obviously bigger than his mouth.

Kid thinks he's hot s**t with his big a$$ computer.

Pffft, Mr. Sbow has lightsaber chopsticks that look like lightsabers.

Ive never seen one person dressed like that.

What the héll kind of Candyland board is this??

There wasn't 10 hours of TV to watch when i was growing up, 2 hours of Saturday cartoons and Sunday Disney show was about it.

I'm an 80's kid. Huh, thats does sound better than "I'm pushing 50"

Those were the days. I didn't have the Internet at home, so I'd buy a game based on the box, or a friend recommending it. I'd have no idea what I was about to play.

A bit off topic, something about Goku that's bothered me for years is that when he told Bulma how old he was, he could barely count. He could have been younger than he said. Him getting married at 18, given his circumstances, was always so iffy to me, even as a kid in the 90s..

I liked watching Cow and Chicken. My brother asked what that cartoon would do to the children and then we looked at each other.
