Ha. Well, that's interesting.

What guess would you take for my own zodiac sign then? Even though I suspect you've gathered the information in the birthday calendar already.

Well no, I don't know your birthday date. I was speaking rather of meeting people in real though, as on the net it's easy to be someone else than who you're out there.
Still, if I would have to guess, eventhough on a forum the chances are very slim, I would say you're either Libra or eventually Virgo. But I'm probably wrong anyway

I've got about 300 NES games. Almost none of them were actually paid for. Most of them I got just from asking old friends if they still had their old games from when they were a kid... they're usually more than happy to give away a box full of them that's been cluttering up their basement.

Can I have your friends?

I try to collect games (both old and new) but it's so damned hard to find anything. I mean, it's not likely that you're going to find NES games even at flea markets these days.

Huuto.net is the best option. Lots of NES games and the price is ranged from 5 to 15€ (and sometimes higher, if the games something like Crystalis)

I guess you can call that "collecting people"
That is possibly the scariest thing I have read on this forum and I have been here 4 years.

That said, it was meant meeting people in real life, you know, not on the net (repeating myself there). It's kinda hard to learn much about people on the net.

I'm collecting flippers!
...well, actually I have got only one flipper, but I hope to expand the collection during the lifetime!

Another collection I'd like to start is about strange books. I mean phisically strange, like made with uncommon materials.
