Actually, DS stands for Drill Sergeant. You see Nitendo's getting tired of the belief that Nintendo games are for kids and they decided that the brand name "Game Boy" wasn't helping them get rid of that image. So for their next handheld they decided to call it the Drill Sergeant [or DS for short] so that when people hear it they will think of in your face action that doesn't let up.
Well, you know how it is OB1. Because your joke was just so damn funny I had to use it myself..
Back in the real world.
GR thats a damn funny idea, imagine if they made a game like that.
The face of a drill sergeant comes on the top screen.
"Well looky what we have here, you look like a little worm, I can't see you but I just know your a little worm, probobly thought a game with the name drill sergeant would be cool, well I'm NOT, now whats your name son"
that'd be a fun use of voice recognition.
"Alright worm, you want to play a hard game drop and give me 20, just kidding, I can't see you do 20 and even if you could do 20 it wouldn't be enough to get you into shape, tap that A button 1000 times go"
Now, 1000 times isn't much, but just imagine how much it's hurt after a while..
This sounds stupid but I think it'd be funny, just to see what kind of insults the damn thing throws out you while your doing it.
"Your worse then a bag of dog hair boy, your useless"
All the time making you do stupid things with the DS.
Tell you what I would actually buy that. If only for the insults.
Yeah right, next your going to tell me the world is round....
That is an insanely awesome idea. Now watch as I steal this idea from you, since you have not as yet patented it and likely would not anyway since the concept is beyond you being of Austrailian descent and thus lack knowledge of the U.S. patent system that I, in fact, DO know of, and make billions of unholy amounts of American dollars that I will use to purchase those things with which I am well pleased.
That's not exactly an easy thing to punch in, as anyone who's ever actually done the jump rope quest in FF9 can tell you (I HATE JUMP ROPES!).
Anyone remember a Drill Sergent flash animation made some time ago? It was one of those AI's designed to respond to what you tell it. The guy was hlarious. "Bill Gates? Yeah I remember Bill... I remember long ago when we was workin' on the ol' farm up north there. Bill had a funny little laugh. Wasn't really a laugh actually, it sounded more like "Come quick! Mom's caught in the corn silo! Help, HEEEELP!". Ah Bill, what a card..."
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
Well, maybe I will! Then he'll like me more than you and you'll be sad and run home crying to your mommie who'll tell you too stop being such a baby and to get a job you worthless mucher!!
Actually, DS stands for Dean Martin(S).. so that... he...
Fuck. :(
If i had a dollar for every time i ran out of hair in the middle of a spoon making contest id only eat your children with a side of slaw and THOSE ARENT PILLOWS!!
Umm, OB1, how exactly could that post be serious? I didn't use a :) because I thought it was quite clear and I use those enough anyway... but I guess like usual no one can tell when I'm not serious. :(
Because of course if your children are failing in their classes you don't want them to feel like worthless good-for-nothings! Just give your child a big hug and everything will be all better! *hugs a tree* *tree explodes and rainbows shoot out*
Quote:we had E's where i went to school. and E was failing, they did away with F's because they screamed FAILURE and that was inappropriate...or something.
"E for Effort" would be even less appropriate then... :)
