About two and a half days short (give or take) on that one there, chief. We had plenty of time. >^_^<
I was running an errand at work yesterday and got passed by an A-Team Plumbing van that looked like the one from the show. Never actually watched the show but I do recognize the van.
Around the time I was just getting into stuff like Slayers or El Hazard, there used to be this one website with a joke comic that had Mr. T taking on Lina Inverse's group and winning. ...I'd read some weird stuff in high school and college. Part of me's glad that my tastes have moved on since then. ()^_^
The amount of bootleg and knockoff branding down here is pretty astonishing. I found this a couple years ago at one of the stores at Broadway at the Beach.
It wasn't the bootleg Knuckles that irked me when I saw that image up there. It's that it was a very, shall we say, specific and memetic version of Knuckles that was ticking me off.
And that's good enough. There's a brief explanation of it elsewhere, but I've always found it fairly repulsive, so I'd prefer not to talk about it. So, I'mma drop this here instead. There's a small part of me that's liked the idea of the characters I've created over the decades throwing down just for fun, but I lack the skills, the time and energy, and the money to make that happen in entertainment form. Running stuff like this through the generator is a lot more satisfying. I know I've said this before, but out of Ambush's kids, Ellen's always fascinated me the most.
