    Agreed. I often miss DOS.

    My first computer was DOS only. Kids today will never understand the joke C:\DOS\RUN. :ohwell:

    I prefer the keyboard and shortcuts to the mouse anyday.

    oh the DOS days.. I grew up on Windows 3.11... I remember HATING windows 95 when it came out ..
    I prided myself on never having to touch the damn mouse. Good times...

    My children ate my brain this morning.

    howd you get cool enough to have zombie children !

    Lucky me. :grumble: :tongue:

    I know what an Edson's Enigma is and have been paid for performing them.
    I occasionally greet people with "Bah weep grah nah weep ninny bong".
    My favorite horror movies are ones you've likely never heard of.
    I'm a 9 times published spec fic author and one of my horror stories has won awards.
    I'm married to a Burlesque emcee/stand up comedian.
    My brother made DJ hero 2.
    I could quote Aliens word for word a quarter of a decade ago,
    When I grow up I want to be a Grammaton Cleric.
    I spin fire.
    I own a replica of the Lament Configuration.
    I usually diagnose the problems on House before doctor House does.
    I couldn't sleep the night after watching The Avengers because I was in too much bliss.
    I'm currently designing a tear-away Master Chief striptease costume for a Burlesque number.
    I've read The Navidson Record three times.
    Tom Baker was the Doctor of my generation.
    Tom Savini endorsed a book I was featured in.
    David Prowse (RIP) once signed my forehead with a permanent marker.
    My wife won Screamfest 2002 with a script judged by Wes Craven.
    We've washed Henry Rollin's underwear in our apartment.
    My best friend designed the costumes for Pirates of the Caribbean.
    I was taught 24 and 48 form Yang style by Master Ma Yue.
    If I'm not back in fifteen minutes, you take this ship and you come and rescue me.

    You've all kept me entertained for two days running. Now the above post from Captain_tightpants has caused me to Swoon.

    Do I get bonus points, not just for knowing pretty much all of the lines from Princess Bride verbatim, but also owning a copy of the book? I have reread it so many times, and now I must read it again.
