SoundBlaster mono or stereo? What about graphics? The legendary TsengLabs 64 with a full 1mb ram! 1024 x 768 extreme resolution!
My trusty 486/33, SoundBlaster Pro, a whopping 512 kb of graphics memory. That was the pinnacle. After that, computers only got worse.

^^ What I read.
What I heard:
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

On the list: comic book based movies. Yes special effects have made it possible to amplify what is in comic books. But why do it? Do I actually want to view all fifty shades of Walter Mitty available to me now?
Just saw Wonder Woman because we couldn't find anything more promising to see yesterday and we very much wanted to be in an air-conditioned theater during the heat of the day. Nice to see a strong female roll model but don't go trying this at home girls unless of course you're some god's spawn. (The kind of god who puts some of the omni-goodies into your nature and doesn't hog it all to himself. Looking at you biblical Jehovah god.)

Wafels from Brussels. (As a Belgian this is blasphemy.)
Whipped cream.
Facebook. Twitter. Instagram.
Mario Kart (Not awful, just overrated.)
The Belgian Royal Family.
Subway (The food, not the transport.
Yo momma jokes.
Parrots.
21 pilots
Cowboy Bebop (though this might change, have only seen the first ep.)
My best friend doesn't like 'The Godfather'. Now that's weird.

Video games with amazing graphics and dull gameplay.
I'm also supposed to prefer newer games to older games, but I fucking don't.

Lynch mob, stand by...
Game of Thrones.
I'm just not in the least bit interested. All the hype doesn't exactly help, either. Even if I was tempted, it puts me off that it's almost compulsory. The same goes for Harry Potter.

I'm with you on HP.
I haven't watched or read GoT though.

Wife read the first book or two and found it tedious to keep track of all the characters. We watched Season 1 and 2 when they came out. Season 1 was brilliant, season 2 became so unfocused, convoluted and bogged down in tedious plot development, and we kind of lost interest. That was back in 20xx when we still watched things at all.

Yo momma is a good old soul
She got a 10 ton pussy and a rubber asshole
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Yo momma so ugly,
When she gives a blowjob, it counts as anal.
