  • Ya know when someone rounds a corner, they lose traction, run in place for a moment, and then fall?

    Yeah. While in a factory. One of the trailers the next section was working on caught fire, so I bolted over there to assist, and no one in my section thought to hit our E-Stop. I bolted around the corner, hit the red button, turned, was booking it back, hit that corner, and was just in place until my ass hit concrete.

    After all was said and done, we had a good laugh. Got called out at the next safety meeting for being a bit too enthusiastic on making my way back.
















  • Yes, it was! In fact, this wasn’t uncommon! Several early PC titles would ask you questions and point you to the page in the manual.

    Another one was Code Rings, cardboard discs you had to align words/symbols on to get the code to play the game.

    If you lost your manual/ring, or bought a second hand copy without one, you were absolutely fucked on playing your game.
