Atari's 2600 hooked me on gaming, and I spent my youth in every #arcade I could find. Much love for 80s pop culture, video games, books, music, and movies. Avid fan of VHS, vinyl, Tank Girl comics, and AFX slot racing. #eatTheRich
Saw a Regal Theater mystery movie the other night. I'd never been to this theater. Full of classic charm

- The daily video game history fact -
Alone in the Dark (1992) was originally conceived as the start of a Lovecraft-inspired trilogy, but the sequels took different creative directions after the original developer left Infogrames amid creative control disputes.

Each year I dedicate a tree to the CN show, Uncle Grampa. It's from an era when television didn't totally suck

I've had to shovel my driveway twice in the last 2 days. Not sure that's happened in the last 15 years. And I live in a snowy sort of area

A recent search of my email returned this old 2017 coupon from Toy R US, buried in the depths of my inbox. It brought back a lot of memories

#Santa arrives by #helicopter at a local strip mall each year. I've never been, so I decided to hit it up today.
I guess the weather wasn't conducive so he arrived via firetruck. Disappointed. Maybe next year, lol

Paying for Amazon Prime seems ridiculous when they miss nearly every shipping deadline.
I don't need a tv stream full of commercials and packages arriving days late. Fuck that noise!
