Caltrops - M.A.M.E.





	[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="Fussbett"][quote]I think the flood gates will open shortly, and I appreciate the patience everyone has shown with the situation. The machinst promises to take the jobs more seriously as soon as he gets over his current situation <b>(Elderly mother died, had to move out of the house, etc.)</b> Here's to hoping Cheers![/quote] Fucking machinist! <img src="http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/5600/stickman.jpg">[/quote] I read this and laughed. I read this again tonight because that "Fucking machinist" line and picture cracks me up every goddamn time. But am I to understand, according to the part I bolded, that the guy responsible the production of the GroovyGameGear Arcade Spinner became at least temporarily HOMELESS when his mother died? Like he's out testing the prototype, trying to get the correct sensitivity setting for <i>Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em</i>, not taking things too seriously as is his nature and then finds that Mom croaked in the tub when he ventures upstairs to heat up another Hot Pocket. I can't imagine having to co-ordinate a funeral and go apartment hunting at the same time. It's going to be months, if not years before we see this spinner. I do like that the guy believes the "flood gates will open" and that he'll get thousands of these just as soon as his contact sorts out a few minor issues that could have happened to anyone. ... ... He <i>had</i> to know this was coming, how do you not have an exit strategy here that ensures a calm and peaceful transfer of the deed? I am beginning to suspect that the ArcadeControls.com forum is a hotbed of follies like this one. This entire situation needs to be investigated further for an article, with commentary boxes from Whorebach, the guy who played Sark and the Cable Brothers. the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey!
