    I am mentalling a skit one could do on Saturday Night Live, perhaps - a younger person holding up a cell phone in front of them - like a cross - and an old codger from Brooklyn hissing at it through dentures... similar to vampires hissing at a cross

    ha ha!! Someone make a vid for youtube!

    they worried about pac man and yet the true evils were definately cluedo and monopoly cluedo sensationalising murders murderers and the busty pic of miss scarlet practically obscene,

    and as for monopoly..... materialism that definately led to violence, and sometimes you didnt even get as far as playing cos the riot would start with the picking of who was going to be the damn car or dog.

    i dont remember ever actually finishing a game of monopoly , the usual end of the game was when someone started chucking the board round the room and you'd spend the rest of the week finding little red houses in corners and crevices.coulda lost an eye or two playing that.or the game would last so long the players would start dozing off.

    i can honestly say i never saw anyone throw a pacman or space invader table around, i think they weighed about 2 tonne and had 6 inch reinforced glass tops

    bumping, incase anybody got a pacman gift, they may want to consider the light stated in the first post from the WT in 1982.

    Their beeps and booms and colorful lights have captured the fancy and imagination of a new generation of players to the point of obsession.

    But the big question is: Does that 1982 generation overlap with todays generation?

    I as I read this thread I couldnt help but imagine the GB walking around bethel looking for bethelites who where laughing and having fun. When the GB found out what they were having fun with that was their next no fun rule to be covered in up coming watchtower. If you think they keep the congregations under their thumb you should see how controlling they are at bethel.

    I wasn't allowed to play PacMan because of the "ghosts."

    What a weird childhood I had!

    Ah this brings back memories. I remember my family debating whether playing video games, with the flashing lights and sounds, would hypnotize me, and put me under demonic control. In the end, I was allowed to play Ms Pacman, Defender, Q-Bert, ect... though sometimes I wondered if I were doing something that would get me destroyed during the Big A. It seems so silly now.
