What’s the Worst Thing About Online Gaming?

Worst Thing About Online Gaming Family Feud - SQ

This question will make our gamers out there in SQ Nation chuckle out loud; I know I did.  There are just too many things that come to mind that you could argue.  Profanity?  The lack of maturity?  Camping?  “Your mom” jokes?  Lag?  I think I could come up with 100 different things that blow orifices about online gaming, and I think you could too.  Although I mostly reach for the single player venues currently, via Demon’s Souls and Diablo 3, I do jump into the StarCraft 2 arena pretty frequently, although I’m still learning.  Gone are the days when I used to destroy people online in Red Alert, and don’t even get me started about Goldeneye.  Hit the link below for a hilarious take on one gamer’s position on what the worst aspect about online gaming is.  I think most of us will be able to relate!

Who Remembers the Nintendo Power Mullet Kid?

N64 Kid Picture - SlightlyQualified.com

So who remembers the mullet kid from Nintendo Power?  Okay, hold on; maybe I should take a step back here.  Who remembers Nintendo Power?  Anyone?  Bueller?  If you’re too young to remember the awesomeness that was Nintendo’s “Nintendo Power” magazine, then I’m sorry because you honestly missed out.  This was long before the days where you had awesome websites like SQ around; we kids had to wait four weeks in between issues, and let me tell you, when you’re trying to beat Battletoads, those maps that magazine had were priceless.  I remember my original Nintendo Power subscription came with a free game; I got to choose one of three games, and though I can’t remember the other two, I ended up picking Dragon Warrior.  Awesome game aside, do you want to know what else I remember from that first subscription to Nintendo Power?  That mullet kid who had the coolest room in the world.  And a turtleneck t-shirt.  Hit the link below for pure nostalgia, and/or laughter regardless of what age you are.

Funny Picture: And So It Begins

Funny Picture Virtual Reality Matrix - SlightlyQualified.com

People have been picking days on the calendar to be the “end of the world” for centuries now, so I think humanity is kind of immune to them.  The Mayans maybe had the biggest following, but look how that one ended up: we’re all still here, and the six of you that read this secretly awesome website are happy and well.  Hollywood has of course done their part over the years, as global doom will certainly sell movie tickets, however today we look back at probably the coolest movie of 1997, when your’s truly was a freshman in high school, and the six of you were, well, I have no idea (we suck at keeping demographics at this point).  Hit the link below for the full funny picture!

24 Things That Prove Video Games Are All Grown Up

Legend of Zelda - SlightlyQualified.com

It’s sad to think about, but I turn the fresh young age of 30 in approximately three weeks.  I’ve been gaming for just about every single one of those years since my original spawn in 1983, and it started with many of the games/systems on the hilariously nostalgic list below. I’m looking forward (in a weird way) to the day when I’m 60, to see what the average “gaming age” will be then; it will be like the jokes that started on Facebook a few years ago that asked the question, “What happens when we all start getting old?”  Awesome photo roll below that’s sure to make your Tuesday less crappy!

Tensions Mount After North Korea Destroys Asia

God bless The Onion.  My first experience with the Onion came in high school, when a buddy of mine brought one of their newspapers to school, and I’ve been hooked ever since.  Although this video was released a couple years ago, it may have more relevance now than it did in 2011.  Aside from going to the Onion’s website and looking at the publish date, what’s one way you can tell the video is at least a year old?  Answer after the link.

Dude Lets Girlfriend Get Hit in Face with Home Run

Think this dude was in hot water after this one made SportsCenter?  Watch this dude jump out of the way when a home run was incoming at his seats, only to let his girlfriend catch the home run ball with her face.  If this was their first date, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say there won’t be a second.  If they’re married, divorce papers may or may not be written up already, or at least in the works.   Continue reading “Dude Lets Girlfriend Get Hit in Face with Home Run”
