The lovely dialogue spoken.

Lego is so fucking awesome. I remember me and my sister built two Lego town in each of our rooms and we connected them through a lego railway. So we would send the train from one room to the other with passengers. Lego was so damn cool.

I don't know if the perception is true. I have a younger brother who is 11-ish (I'm not sure exactly how old he is) and has scheduled activities nearly all the time. Though all of it is stuff he himself has kinda chosen. The difference I see to when I was younger (except of course that I never did anything scheduled because that was how I rolled) is that he doesn't seem to... uhm play as much in his free time. Except of course computer and video games.

I'm kinda fearing that that old imagining thing is going away. And I know people complained about the exact same thing when I was a kid that I didn't play enough proper games and just played video games. So I guess I shouldn't really coplain. I hope it doesn't stunt ability to make stuff up.


My childhood was awesome. Of course I'm watching it through my nostalgia eyeglasses but it still was awesome. We lived in a suburb a bit outside our town. It had lots of good stuff. In summers we'd be out in the woods fighting wars with sticks and generally playing loads of pretend fighting of monsters of all kinds. Of course all in combination with a healthy dose of football (real football), where most were in some kind of scheduled football team activity. Though never me. I only ever played in my free time.

And while out in the woods there were no cell phones and I never wore a watch. So time just passed or didn't pass. That stuff is great.

And when I started to grow out of it I found tabletop roleplaying. So everyone else grew out of it and I'm sitting online imagining wonderful worlds from the past. I get into nostalgia mode occasionally and writing this has put me in that.

It wasn't even for too many years but damn a lot happened. My last couple of years have just been routinely doing the same thing all the time. I hope kids get to be kids today still and that they remember their days with rosy glasses and a smile. Because if they're forced to grow up fast and be all... Cool and stuff... I don't want...

I'm still a kid deep down.

You know when I was around 10 I was a total pacifist. Some time when I was around 8 I decided to throw away every single one of my toy guns. Somewhere things went wrong and I am now the violence-loving bugger I am. But I was a true pacifist once.

I should stop now before I...

Since no one posted a screen..

GTA4. My screen still stands there all lonely and it hasn't been three days yet. Google around a bit or something.

Der Langrisser.

My game was not Day of Defeat. It's a tactical game not set in World War 2.

I'm pretty certain I played Pong a long time ago. I also remember a game about a cat and when I look around Alley Cat seems like a nice match. Around the same time I also seem to remember Prince of Persia. It would be very late 80s. I don't have any idea what I played first though.

I also had some Game&Watch games and other samey games. I remember exactly when I got my NES though. That was wonderful. Summer 1991. Finally I got to play games at home and not elsewhere all the time. Super Mario Bros of course.
