Title: ITT best nerd moments
Post by: The artist formally known on March 10, 2008, 02:36:58 AM
Some guy in the line for Brawl was talking about how long he reserved his copy of Brawl, I just replied, really loudly I suppose because half way though most of the line was looking at me, "Yeah I reserved Brawl when the Nintendo Wii was called the Revolution!" and not joking everyone who was looking at me laughed.

It was fucking awesome;

When I was talking about how Duke Nukem is the manliest kid to ever exist and this kid, thinking he's some sort of awesome gamer, is like "yeah I played duke nukem it's the one with that guy and some sort of huge gun called a BIG or something." I knew he meant to say BFG and the only thing he ever knew about 'classic' PC games he learned from the Doom movie, which he proclaimed to be the greatest action movie ever.

This same kid has only ever owned an Xbox 360 and tries to fit in and says "yeah I once owned a Super Nintendo and Mario" (when I was talking about how the Super Nintendo is the greatest system ever). I asked him which Mario game it was, and he says Mario Bros. Every person says that, but almost no kid today has ever played the arcade Mario Bros or Super Mario Bros. I went on about how Super Mario World is the prominent Super Nintendo Mario game, and Bros only appeared through Allstars. Also, he's admitted to only ever owning a 360 just a few months prior.

Also, this same kid says his computer doesn't run software but just a windows. His computer is made by Windows.

One time, when I was using command prompt to access the FTP server for here to save some school work, he's like, "Man, you're over there hacking." I was like, "um... no." He was like "Yeah.... I know (he was lying.)" Then he says some stupid stuff about how I could use my "hacking" to "go in windows" and hack files and other bullshit.

He claims to know more about computers than me.

He didn't do one part of his presentation that consisted on 99 points, leaving the max he could possibly get at a 201/300. He's right on the border of an F, and I told him if he didn't do it, he'd fail. He says , "No man, that's a C." I say, "Uhh... no; that's a 67." He's then like "You're lying, I know what I'm talking about." I whip out a calculator, punch it in, and get exactly 67. He was pissed.

I hate kids who lie about stupid shit.

In the SSBM it was always "X is in melee you hafta Y" and I'm like "Bullshit".

I hate nerdy kids. They seem to seek coolness via gaming.

Being the only person in my History 020 class to raise my hand with the intention to answer when my Professor half jokingly said does anyone here care to tell us about that law? With most of the class chuckling in the background I raised my hand and got the shocked/annoyed/sarcastic/skeptical looks from most of the class.

But I thought, fuck it, I don't watch the History channel for nothing.

I feel terrible when I call people on their crap when they say they like old video game systems. I ask them whats their favorite NES game, and sometimes they say SMW.

It's not bad, but there's Life Force, Megaman series, Metal Storm, Zelda II, Super Mario Bros 3, etc.

I really dont even care to state my favorite NES game because I didn't play much of it. It was too privative and hard for me at the time it came out since I played SNES and NES side by side as a kid.

I was born around the year the NES came out but didn't have a chance to play it except for SMB3 because I was too young. SNES came out and loved Mystical Ninja and LTTP.



Oh and I hate all this bullshit about how you're cool if you loved a NES or SNES, stupid people who try and pretend that they played a NES as a child? Why? If I find someone who does that I ask them about all the little known NES games that aren't SMB and stuff. Seems that most people think the NES only had SMB and Zelda.

Because most people think the NES is the best system ever because it's the first Nintendo ever put out in the US, and that it might help shield them because they've only ever played Playstations and Xboxes.

Also, it really pisses me off when kids that have only ever owned a 360 say the Gamecube sucks and that the Dreamcast was a great system, even though they've never even seen either of them.

Dreamcast was terrible.

It had some great games but most of those are outdated and aged pretty badly and I didn't get to play them when they came out. Gamecube had plently of gems of games.


I agree, people do that shit all the time. They'll own an Xbox or 360 and have an opinion on every console ever.

I hate this one kid at school who says Wii and 360 suck. He doesn't even have a 360, only a Wii and a PS3. And he's always saying "PS3 Network is better than Xbox Live." And he's a "hacker" because he can get to command prompt, and get this!! He knows how to show hidden folders on an XP machine. >_>
Once I asked if he knew what Linux was and he said "No, dude, I don't use Macs. They're gay." He also doesn't have a mac.

Not terrible, but far from being great. The Genesis is a great machine, and the Saturn is pretty damn fine too, but the Dreamcast just didn't live long enough to get many outstanding games.

I also hate people that say the Saturn is bad, or worse, those kids that say the N64 is the greatest system of all time. Just because it has Ocarina of Time or because it was your first doesn't make it the best. It had very few good games and they were all expensive as hell. The only thing that could possibly be worse is a person saying the Dreamcast is one of the greatest systems ever and the Saturn is one of the worst, when it's really the other way around.

I have limited knowledge of the Nintendo consoles but I did not recognize the abbreviations. As I said before, I don't give a fuck, those are the games I like and that what I'll play.

SNES and PS2 are the best consoles ever. SNES is above but PS2 isn't far behind.
