I skimmed the article to find the reference to Stockton, but didn't find it, so here's the twitter with the link:

NBA Jam Teams, Ranked

NBA Jam T.E. > NBA Jam.

Can you find a ranking for NBA Jam T.E.?

I still play that game on the SNES sometimes.

Sorry? I don't care about video games. I only saw this searching for Utah Jazz news on Google. Posted because someone else might care?

I don't know how to feel about this.

* You're doing something you don't like (posting about video games).

I don't want you to make a post about something you don't like.

* You're doing something hypothetically for someone else.


Which could be considered noble.

Overall, I feel more negative energy coming from you, for posting something which you have no passion about.

So, I wish you'd stop, and let someone who cares about it, make the post.

That way, when someone else who cares about video games sees the post, they'll see the SN of someone who likes video games.

Otherwise, right now, someone might see your SN, and get excited. "Hey, MHSL82 is posting about a video game! He probably likes games too! I can't wait to chat with him about it."

Only to find out, you are as interested in video games as you are in getting diarrhea in your eyes.

I like video games A LOT more than getting diarrhea in my eyes. I have a passion about video games compared to getting feces in my cavities and out of them.

To be honest, though, I did play NBA Jam and enjoyed it when I was a kid. I would still prefer it over other video games, besides Mario Kart, which I like.

Why didn't you provide this info when you were posting the article about the NBA Jam rankings?

That would have made your post a great post, and would have kept me excited about it, especially how it was MHSL82 posting it.

I also like how you mentioned Mario Kart. (Thumbs Up).

I'm sorry, I don't particularly think about it analyze other posters excitement level about what I say or who could be reading. Reading what you said in these two posts is like when I watch a cooking show and the host describes to us how good it tastes. I can't connect to it because I don't get excited over other people's posts (though I do like to read stats).

Aside: When a host describes how good a dish is, I just think, sure because you made it. When I make it who knows if it is my cooking or if it's just no good no matter who cooks it (you're wrong, host!). Also, I can't connect to what the host is saying, because I never gush over good, so I could never have that feeling, though I do love some foods. I'm not social or host-y enough to put on a show like that. It would be fake from me, so I see it fake from them.

So you post on message boards to record your thoughts, not because you also feel connected to others, and what they might be thinking?

I thought I'd seen in the past where you considered the potential reaction of others before making a post.

For example, if I wasn't a registered member of this forum, would you have made these posts?

I guess "excited" was the wrong word from you (my fault for keeping it so literal) - I am interested in what some posters think when it's specific to someone, like you or Sackataters, etc. I rarely am that interested in what the general public think, until they comment on it and then I react to that if applicable. Enough of those reactions from other posters (individually) and I'll get to know them and might post more things in the same vein. Having said that, my posting style doesn't really revolve around others. I know, I'm a selfish prick.

MHSL82, you're real and you're spectacular.

Bonus points for that Seinfeld reference. Lost points for lying...

Thanks.
