| 1124 | Article | Vaporman87 | I will admit, I could not wait until you had finished this piece to read some of it, so I used my webmaster mojo to dig it up and read some of it while in draft form. LOL. Pardon my impatience. Such a great article. And a fun and poignant reflection of what summer was like in the vkimo house. From the bbq on the grill, to the chlorine filled pools... I can almost smell the memories. This cracked me up every time: "Ah yes, I remember this themed BBQ. Wear your girlfriend's shorts". I also never went to any summer camp. However, as I have previously mentioned elsewhere, I did attend two summers worth of college preparatory programs on the campus of OU. Those are summers I'll never forget. It was a taste of the freedom of college come years early. And I made friendships that, though they did not last, will be forever etched within my mind. Thanks for this vkimo! | Jun 06, 2014 |  | |
| 5191 | Article | Vaporman87 | I will confess, this is one of those films from the '80s that I have yet to watch. However, during this lockdown situation I have been scratching a few films like this off my list (most recently 'Dune') so I may finally get around to enjoying this one. I love the car design. | The Wraith - An 80's Cult Classic | May 04, 2020 | |
| 603 | Article | shakin steak | I will keep an eye out for DiTillo episodes. I mainly recognized Dini from his credits on Batman TAS. First time I saw his name on the opening shot of a He-Man episode I was like "Holy ****!" I think that was my first clue that there is some quality in there. I've watched a few episodes of Bravestarr; so far it hasn't really grabbed me. Same with Ghostbusters. | New Eyes on He-Man and She-Ra | May 03, 2013 | |
| 349 | Video | Vaporman87 | I will never forget the poop throwing monster. Or the "gassy" cows. | Conker's Bad Fur Day Opening | Feb 18, 2013 | |
| 451 | Article | AceNThaHole | I wish I could have thought to start a business like that in school! | MINOR TROUBLE | Feb 26, 2013 | |
| 4987 | Article | Vaporman87 | I wish I could have tried a McDLT now that I'm an adult who could appreciate such things. Maybe one day they'll bring that back. | Retro Fast Food That is No More 2: I'm Lovin' It Edition | Jul 28, 2019 | |
| 4839 | Article | Vaporman87 | I wish I could remember all the valentines I received from classmates through the years. I can barely remember any at all. We received valentines from everyone each year, as opposed to just one classmate. | Valentines Over the Years | Feb 07, 2019 | |
| 5435 | Article | Vaporman87 | I wish I could say I had a "corner store" nearby growing up. But I did not. I lived at the top of a hill on a dead-end road. The only thing nearby was the skating rink. But after college and a few years of working in the family business, I moved to Rutland and here we had a real, functioning department store. It carried about anything you could want... groceries, tools, had a deli... it was pretty great. It had been open for more than 100 years when it finally closed (thanks to slowing sales and the appearance of not one, but two new dollar stores... Dollar General and Family Dollar). I won't forget that old-timey feel of the interior of the store. I had heard tales of people 40 or 50 years ago bringing in their grocery lists, and clerks going around picking out the items listed for the customer. There was at one time a bank in the store, and the old vault remained there (becoming a little back office of sorts). And hey... it's where I first found Dutch and Hamato, so... there's that.

| 2134 | Article | Vaporman87 | I wish I could say that I shared in these experiences of shock in old games. I found out about Samus before I had even played one level in the game itself, thanks for my friend who had owned the game long before me. Aerith's death was something that magazines and my brother were making a big deal of, but I was not an RPG nerd, so I did not know or care about that. The fatalities of MK didn't shock me, as I had performed several in the arcades prior to getting the games on home consoles. I would say that, if I could pick one thing from an old game that shocked me, it would be hearing the sound of a voice coming from a game for the first time ever. B-17 bomber for the Intellivision was the first game to hold that honor for me. The first time I heard those words uttered from that cartridge made my eyes open wide. | Shock Me, Shock Me, Shock Me… | Mar 22, 2015 | |
| 2651 | Article | kidcoffee | I wish I could take credit for the idea, but this was all my best friend. He was definitely the mad scientist of the two of us, but now knowing a few of his secrets I am pretty sure I can muster up a recreation. I only wish I was able to hang on to some of my old Joes, but I am pretty sure I can still pick them up cheap at Dollar General. Also now I have an excuse to pick up more candy pumpkins, as if I really needed one. | Mellowcreme Madness | Sep 15, 2015 | |
