Is 2015 too late to learn that you don't really have to kill him?
Because I just did and I'm salty as hell. I lost 12 lives to him on a playthrough 15 years ago, and stopped playing the original Sonic altogether.

The barrel boss in level 3 of Carnival Zone in Sonic 3 was worse, because you pretty much had to find a guide to figure out how to get past it (time pressing up and down as it moved up and down).
That whole level was a charliefoxtrot, honestly. Massive for one, the aforementioned barrel boss, and a zone boss that required certain items to appear before you could hit him, meaning that there was practically no time to go exploring or get lost. I almost never reached the boss with over a minute remaining, and never managed a no-deaths clear.

They fucked up on the barrel to be fair. The thing is a meme today. Even the official Sonic twitter account doesn't want anything to do with it.

Today I learned that I've been using the word "acronym" incorrectly. Not only that, it was an ESL speaker who told me about it.
Turns out that in strict usage any abbreviation for which you spell out the individual letters, for example IBM, is properly called an "initialism" with the word "acronym" reserved for things that are pronounced as a word, e.g. NATO.
SAP, then, is an initialism when used by people who work there and an acronym among their customers.
