Well. Knew you could drink in your own home below sixteen, but didn't think there was an age specified.

Yeah, there's an "unzip" key. You can pee on people until they throw up, then I usually just hit them with a shovel or something.

My mom never really cared what I played. My dad, on the other hand, freaked out once when I was 12 because I rented a T game. But he doesn't care now, I just say something like "Dad, I own Resident Evil 1 and 4, Diablo II, and all 3 Metal Gear Solid games. I think I can handle a M rated game".

My parents were a bit "weirded out" when I brought in Marduk's Fu[I]c[/I]k me Jesus. But they don't really care.

It's weird how I'm baptised and did all the confirmation stuff and all, but my parents aren't Catholic or religious in the slightest. Maybe because the closest school was a catholic one and they wanted me to fit in.

Eh, all in all, learning about Catholic history and the Bible is fairly interesting, there are just some people who ruin it.

Mario Party 1 did not suck.

Shattered_Future 01-11-2006 07:03 PM

Bwahahaha, the first track on F*ck Me Jesus is unbelievably messed up...

Mario Party 2 was excellent. It went downhill after that.

I yearn to play Snowboard Kids 2...I gave my N64 to my friend, I should steal it back from him...

Aw3someman 01-11-2006 07:07 PM

F*ck me jesus reminds me of the Faith +1 episode of South Park. The one where they get busted for downloading music and Cartman makes that christian rock band. those lyrics haha "I want to please you Jesus, i want to get on my knees to please you, i want to feel your salvation all over my face jesus oohhh i want to please you jesus" :lol:

best N64 game was definetly Goldeneye or Perfect Dark

Shattered_Future 01-11-2006 07:07 PM

Oh GOD, Perfect Dark...

That was SUCH a fun multiplayer game. Especially when you're the alien dudes and you get to punch the crap out of everybody.

TheDMV 01-11-2006 07:08 PM

N64 is "where it's at"

Mario Party has always been Good. Ocarina of Time is truthfully the most well designed game ever and shows that graphics don't really matter all that much.

And let's not forget Pokemon Snap.

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]Oh GOD, Perfect Dark...

YES! One of the top shooting games ever. I loved the controllable rockets (I always do though)

Kurtz 01-11-2006 07:09 PM

Why the hell hasn't Goldeneye been mentioned yet.

EDIT: wait, it actually has.

Best game ever, besides GTA III.

Shattered_Future 01-11-2006 07:11 PM

I don't understand why everybody knocked Majora's Mask (Legend of Zelda game for the uninformed). It was truthfully a very good and thorough game. Pity I couldn't beat it...:mad:

I was pretty young at the time (I think that you and I are arounfd the same age?) and I could not figure that thing out. I got my one babysitter to try and further us, and I was amazed that he was able to complete tasks I now have deemed simple. Too bad I can't hook up my 64 and give it another shot. I think the bastard broke :upset:

Shattered_Future 01-11-2006 07:26 PM

I bought the Prima Games official strategy guide for that game. :cool:

I think I got about halfway through...beat 2 out of the 4 bosses, and got up to the dungeon of the third.

I remember being afraid of dying in that game though, maybe that's why I never completed it.

Ugh, what a joke for a game. I rented it at Blockbuster for the five day limit, and beat it on Rental Day 2. It was way too short and not that exciting, regrettably.

The other games people talked about (Goldeneye, etc.)? Classics, basically. Especially Zelda: OoT. Best videogame ever made.

[quote=Bartender]/essay credentials[/quote]

Ah, I see. How many words does it have to be, even though you have 700 already? Is there a limit?

[quote=ShadowsFallen]/church story[/quote]

Your mom is going to have to come around sooner or later. I'm sure that if I told my parents that, that they'd go nuts, too, and be extremely bitter and pissed at me. But eventually they'd have to accept it.

As I said earlier the last time you talked about this, I'm admittedly a lazy religious person. I don't go to a full-blown church while at school; the closest thing to church is this place where thousands of people go to hear what's basically an extended homily, where they pick a theme (let's say, love, to be really vague) and the speaker picks three verses out of The Bible and then mixes that with personal stories. Before this extended homily thing, there's basically a rock concert for Jesus or being Christian in general, where a guitarist, bassist, drummer, group of vocalists, etc. sing songs about God and His badassness or what have you. The rock concert is pretty cool and it's fun to sing, but that's not what I was told is a church. Basically, my parents are glad I go to some form of a church while at school, even if it's something like that.

And when I'm back home, I'm forced to go to church with my family. "Forced" might be seen in the wrong context, but I guess that's the best way to describe it.

But, I really don't have a problem with going to church. My priest and his wife and kids (I'm not Roman Catholic, so don't freak out if you're hardcore Roman Catholic and wondering why my priest has kids and a wife) are all very cool people. Really thick accents, but a nice family. My parents are really involved with the church, but probably because everyone at my church, save for the priest's family and a couple other families, is seemingly 2083408234 years old. My mom runs one of the sections of the Sunday School (or whatever it's called), my dad is on the church board, I guess you'd say.

But yeah, I don't mind going to church. And plus, if I wind up getting married, my parents will most definitely want it to be in a church, and I'm not sure they'd really go for anything less than that (unless my potential wife is of a different religious background or an athiest or something and they get along with her). But that's wayyyyyyy too far down the line for me to give a shi[font=verdana]t[/font] about, so let's not go there.

What I do get sick of is the hardcore church people who try to force their beliefs on you. I would never want to be someone like that, or tell someone they're going to Hell if they don't become Catholic, or whatever. I don't believe in that.

I have a pretty skewed concept of Heaven and Hell. Basically, when you die, God judges whether or not you get into Heaven. If He lets you in, then you'll be extremely happy, and you'll see the people you want to see there, and everyone else who you didn't get along with on Earth will be in Hell. Conversely, if God doesn't think you belong in Heaven, then you're eternally miserable and everyone who treated you like crap will be down there and you won't ever see family or friends or what have you and are forced to do manual labor or other bad things. So, basically, you want to be a good person in life if you want to be happy in the afterlife.

I'm also, admittedly, a lazy religious person, as I said before. I don't pray every night or something like that. In fact, when I think about it, I only seem to pray when I'm crying or really out of whack and upset (except while in church, where prayers are 'normal' or whatever). When that's the case, I have a hardcore praying session, even pulling out a Catechism prayer book if I need it that badly.

So, yeah, that looks pretty horrible, I'm sure, but that's how it is with me. Sorry about your parents going nuts on you.

It was too bad that when you had to many bots, the framerate would drop way too much.

Aw3someman 01-11-2006 08:11 PM

Way too big jom. nice avatar though i was looking at for quite a while


And the best part of Perfect Dark was defintely those mines

GenuineImitation 01-11-2006 08:13 PM

I feel left out. I never played the original Perfect Dark.

Apocalyptic Raids 01-11-2006 08:14 PM

I never actually owned a N64, but all my friends had one, so I played those games alot.

GenuineImitation 01-11-2006 08:15 PM

I had an N64, but no Perfect Dark. I have no idea why. I did have Goldeneye though.

Aw3someman 01-11-2006 08:16 PM

They had this thing called Laptop mines that you could set everywhere and when an enemy walked by it blew up but when you could run through it and nothing would happen. Oh man i spent years playing that lvl which is just one big room and me and my buddies would mine each other to hell

[QUOTE=Jom]/more religion talk[/QUOTE]
I guess I'm following directly in my brother's footsteps, excpt I have a head start. In his freshman year in college, his depression hit him full force to the point of suicide. Many sad phone calls and crying parents later, he's on a whole pile of daily medication along with therapy, and is now a vegetarian and has rejected all forms of religion. My parents went completely insane about it for a while. I could here my dada screaming as loud as he could at my mom at 6:30 am as though the government was forcing us to leave our house or something. It was frightening. I'm guessing she's just worried they'll have to relive it all over again with me.

I used to be a pretty religious person, but I was always a little lazy too. I never wanted to go to church or Confession (Catholic sacrament) or even pay any attention in religion class, but I always talked to God and had deep convresations with my mom on religion. I've been forced my whole life no matter what I said.

My parents are also both very involved in our church. My mom volunteers for virtually everything a 24 hour days allows here, and my dad is inadvertantly dragged into it with her. When (if :() I get married I think I'd like to have it in a church anyway. I know it may not be my thing by that point, but it would certainly put my parents at ease, and I like the traditional setting.

Mostly what puts me off is my mom. She is hands down the most devoutly religious person I've ever met in my entire life. I used to really respect that of her in my (earlier) youth, but now it annoys me. For nearly 17 years she has driven as much Catholicism down my throat as she possibly could and I'm at the point where I could throw up at any second. I'm tired of being force-fed beliefs and never allowed to think for myself on these topics. And then when I make any mention of how I really feel, she goes on about how my life is worthless without religion and proceeds to list all of my terrible traits. I couldn't believe that her way of trying to talk me back into it was by telling me outright that I'm a terrible person. If that's what religion is to these people, I want no part of it.

My parents and little brother are all very religious, and very Christian. I, however, am Atheist. I've always sort of been the odd one out in the family - my dad works all the time and my mom is busy caring for my brother (he needs her more than me, honestly) but one thing that I've always been grateful for is that they dont try and forcefully cram religion down my throat. They used to drag me to Church when I was younger, but now they decided that I'm old enough to make my own decisions about religion. That, and the fact that I'm away all the time at school, anyway. They still drag my little brother, and he hates it because he has the attention span of a gnat.

I've just never felt connected with religion in any way. I tryed very hard for about eight months to understand what it was that drove people to have such devotion for a force that I could not see, hear, touch, smell or feel, but in vain. Religion just isn't my thing, and I can't imagine my parents trying to make me believe it is. I'll let my parents disillusion themselves that God will let me into Heaven as a special exception just because I'm their son. Whatever floats their boat is cool with me, it just doesn't have to be mine.
