Guys I am playing Red Rescue Team and I am really bad at it.

Man the new Mystery Dungeon games are out now and I kind of want to get one even though it's a spinoff and I've never played a roguelike before.

Basically I have no impulse control, especially when it comes to DS games. I have over 20 of them now, it's kind of ridiculous.

The cards never took off at my school, we were all caught in the hysteria of Dragon Ball Z cards. Now those were some cards.

Wait, those existed?

That's really awful.

I guffawed.

YES they existed. I tried to get my friends out of the Pokemon game and into DBZ cards, since a fair number of them liked DBZ as a show more than Pokemon, but it was a no-go. They had to have their fucking holographic Blastoise.

I loved pokemon as a kid, I didnt really dig the game that much because I was too impatient to train my pokemon. But I watched the show and collected the cards.  I would buy a pack for $5 at the 7-11 with every allowance I got.

Pfft. At this flea market by my house you used to be able to buy sleeves of 12 cards for like a quarter.

Flea markets and thrift stores are where it's at.

Oh man, card games? The only cards I ever collected were X-Men trading cards. I have nearly the whole 1994 Fleer Ultra set but I'm missing a couple. I have some of the '95 set but not even half. I wonder if they are actually worth anything, because at the time of collecting I must have had about $400 worth, easy.

Very nice.

No, you got some decent cards in there.  Like, you're not gonna find any rare holographics in there, they sold those separately for like a buck, but I got a dragonair in one of 'em one time.

And most likely fake

Oh nooeees I can not play in the tournament with fake cards!!!1!

Are you kidding? After they banned Pokemon here, it just moved underground.

We developed systems for playing the game that didn't let teachers see, we would trade in the cafeteria from lunchboxes. It was contraband, and thus cooler.

Oh God, I remember back when I was into Pokemon I bought a magazine all about it at some New York subway newsstand, and they had a letter to the editor in there that was all whiny and "oh, my principal is gonna ban pokemon at my school, but I'm afraid to fight it 'cause he'll give me an essay blah blah blah bloo blah bloo"

and the answer they gave this kid was like "Maybe you should teach your principal how to play.  Show him that it's a strategy game and he might not ban it.  If you do get an essay, write it about how great of a game pokemon is and why it shouldn't be banned!"

Even when I was like, ten I could still look at it and go "WHO FUCKING CARES"

You're doing it wrong.


I never understood how pokemon TCG was played.  I mean, can I play my "evolved" pokemon like in the game?  Or do I have to play Charmander, Charmeleon, then Charizard?


You know what was a way cooler TCG then pokemon?

Yeah, there was. At one point I think I got a free starter deck at the local game place I used to play at back in Lubbock because of some event, but I didn't really like it and so sold those cards off and never played it again.

I remember stealing the starter pack that the first Trunks card in your pile came from.

We never actually played the DragonBall Z card game here. We just collected the cards based on their stars and how rare they were.

I am pretty sure what I have is a fully-functional super-strong Trunks-specific battle deck that one of my Internet Friends sent me back in the day, but I never had anyone to play against so I never found out.

As for the Pokemon cards, we had a guy who would do the rounds of the playground at lunch time to offer swaps. We called him Pokemon Guy. After a while we all became friends with him and found out his real name, but he forever remained to us Pokemon Guy.

However what I am trying to figure out is that after my post KickThatBathProf wanted to make jokes. I like people making jokes! I am not a prissy ladylady. I am just trying to figure out what the jokes might be, because I am slightly dumb.

Ozy's post that was your face and not Jodie's was actually before my post.  So just pretend that it was after the censored penis and then you get the drift.

(I was going to make some sort of joke dealing with fellatio)

Dude, that comic is truth.  Kids nowadays are growing up fighting with fucking Bidoofs.  I mean, the early pokemon had vaguely clever names.  Now it sounds like the translators are just naming every other pokemon two or three random syllables.  Hey! While you're at it, why not just name every other pokemon "Asscunt"?
