yamamanamaDay 4: Seven things that cross your mind a lot.
1. She's passionate about me. Consider. One: It's poppycock. Two: My damned staff are damned interferers. Call themselves teachers! They lie to add zest to the party. Three: I haven't questioned their lie, so they don't know that I've seen through it. Four: So far, so good. Five: How do I turn the tables against these spoilers of all that is young and wonderful and, let's face it, lamblike? Six: What's wrong with Irma Prunesquallor, anyway? Noses must be some shape or other, or, as that damned idiot Shred would say, they wouldn't exist at all. Seven: No bosoms to speak of, true...but then, what are bosoms, weighed against...hm, quite. Eight: I'm lonely. Oh, Bellgrove, such scouring, not to say moving, honesty! Nine: What a catch I am for any woman. Ten: Oh God, please make her mine!
2. Why doesn't it hurt? Why doesn't it HURRRRTTTTTTT!? HURRRRTTTTT?!
3. Where's a dread power when I need one? The only one out there is the brain eater and I think he'd make me suffer homicidal rage in proximity of a Muslim, and that's not a good thing. And that's all he does, I don't get anything in return from him. That's not even close to worth it. I'm not even going to dignify that with a burning question. "Are you willing to suffer homicidal rage in proximity of a Muslim? And there's no immortality or golden touches or ability to be loved in return for it, just so you know."
4. Maybe if I said something to her when I had the chance.
5. It always happens to someone else.
6. That’s when you know you’re an adult, when those dreams about being chased by monsters become dreams about missing your finals.
7. Syndication cuts: proof that memory is easily malleable.
Someone on Metafilter brought up the time Lisa The Vegetarian convinced them they were crazy because he was remembering a scene where Marge joins in Homer and Bart's conga line about not winning friends with salad and perhaps being a happy carnivore, and she apologizes and says she was just caught up in the rhythm.
I'm reminded of the time before I had an NES but my cousin did (dan, who is not danimal had this to say: the mushroom guys are stupid) and I remember one of the castle levels being brown on the inside instead of gray. I don't know if it's because of the TV settings being wonky, or because it's been maybe 20 years ago (I think Mario 3 was out and someone born in 1987 could put together a coherent thought, for what it's worth).
I'm not Korean. I have never been to Korea. Since Korea neither has monkeys (it does have apes, though, of course) or is in Eastern Europe, I have little interest in going there. The only person I know who I know for certain has been to Korea was there when it could aptly be described as a third world country.

I do wonder if anyone's tried to recreate this in a rom hack, fixing all the scrolling flaws and stuff. I'm guessing no, there's a hammer item similar to Donkey Kong's, and a few new enemies. Not that that hasn't been done.
Burning Question: What foods do you remember from elementary school?
