Brace yourself

History of 'All Your Base are Belong to Us'

A full page.

I AM NOT, JOKING.

DeusExMachina · Sep 8, 2005

Your Joking? This Is A Joke!

Stigmata · Sep 8, 2005

Post a scan of it.

Evo · Sep 8, 2005

Gotta be joking, those sumbag techers would never do anything like that, ever.

ever!

Shodan · Sep 8, 2005

Holy shit, I want to go to your school.

Next paper will be "What are the G-Mans real intentions?"

She's actually one of the coolest people on earth. We are also reading the book "Everything bad is good for you" which was highlighted in this month's ComputerGamimgWorld (it's about how videogames are good for kids basically, not really, but that's a part of it).

My school kicks ass. And so does that topic, I'll suggest it

Evo · Sep 8, 2005

Hmm, well seems i have been proved wrong...damn you proving me wrong! *shakes fist*

Another one could be: create a ytmnd on gaming related topic

Sulkdodds · Sep 8, 2005

Fuuuuuuuuuck. Admittedly you could easily have printed that and typed it, but I believe you.

Pretending to get a funky handout in class isn't at the top of most people's to-do lists

. <3 <3

Here, maybe it makes more sense in context. We are studying "memes", catchphrases or ideas or fashion that have 'infected' people and spread like virus. For example, another one would be "Got Milk?", or one we talked about in class, the infamous iPod. When she handed out this sheet, I almost died laughing/crying.

Yeah that's what I figured.

Man, you actually learn about really cool stuff in your classes. Information as virus. Anyone read Snow Crash? Very interesting, involving memes.

mortiz · Sep 8, 2005

Jesus, they are running out of things to talk about in English class, they must be bored with Shakespeare by now.

He would turn in his grave if he knew he was being replaced with "All your base".

Sulkdodds · Sep 8, 2005

Bet he wouldn't. It's a very good subject actually, and a perfect example of a widespread meme.

It was a joke

I was implying that compared to Shakespeare "All your Base" is relatively crap, in terms of English of course. I still think All Your Base rocks 100x more than anything Shakespeare ever wrote.

Also since Shakespeare's dead, you're probably right, he wouldn't roll in his grave

Sulkdodds · Sep 8, 2005

Heh.

Shit, I wonder what kind of play Shakespear would write if he was brought back to life?

William Shakespear's All Your Base (a tragedy in four acts)

None.

Actually, I think he'd be too busy clawing at the lid of his coffin to write anything...

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Evo · Sep 8, 2005

I think you missed the point that he is dead and as such would not be able to 'roll in his grave' or 'claw at the lid of his coffin'

TheSomeone · Sep 8, 2005

He was joking about Shakespeare being buried alive.

English was so much fun at A-Level. We got to pick source texts of anything for an assessment, as long as they were monologues. I picked a Bon Jovi song. Passed with flying colours.

I did A-Level English a couple of years ago, it was more like "You can pick any source text you want, as long as it's one of these" *offers a choice of two books*.

EC · Sep 9, 2005

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
main()
roses = red;
violets = blue;
if (base == yours) {
  printf("All your base\nare belong to me.\n");
}
else
  printf("Somebody set us\nUp the bomb!\n");
return 0;
