Applications such as Exchange/Outlook turn a double dash to an em dash when you type it. I've used them for a couple decades.

An interesting game. The only winning move is not to play.

UHF went up against Batman in the summer of 1989. It made only 6 million at the box office and cost 5 million to make. But that film became a cult classic because it was an absolute banger that everyone slept on.

I think you are right. I keep finding different ways they did it, so sounds like the 1800s was a busy period in the development of mirror technology!

Pretty sure they just poured silver nitrate over glass. You can still buy kits to do that to re-silver old mirrors for the original look. From what I can find, the layered ones were older, and they used tin and mercury which made breaking a mirror a rather unlucky event.

Still better than the Gwyneth Paltrow Oreos. Would not recommend.

People here laughed at those and traded them around like cards. Banning tobacco in all public places though, that got very noticeable and immediate results. The public health campaign "helped" about as much as a 3 year old making cookies with mom.

Furrda!

Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop fucking cats.

I want Dragon Half to get a full run. Shit was hilarious.

I loved having hundreds of c64 games with no manuals. So with this one, we thought you needed to fly the plane out the only visible door in the hangar, which was the one the pilot comes in through, and it was barely bigger than the plane. Seemed impossible to line up. Not like you could look things up back then, and if you were lucky enough to know some friends who played it, they'd often have the same issue. Can't get out of the bloody hangar. Then one day, one of my brothers puts his feet up on the computer desk and kicks the F7 key on the bottom right of the keyboard while I'm flying the plane around the hangar, and the wall opens up. Well, shit. From there, it was pretty fun to make the Zaxxon-like run to the Kremlin and then pick it apart with your RPGs. Lots of good memories of this one.

Cat witch will probably wake up and help.
