    Bum bag sounds funny, but when I learned what fanny meant to you Brits I couldn't help but laugh every time someone said it.

      Ha I would have laughed at you with my palm pilot, hang on a sec while I remember an entire form of short hand in order to do so on a tiny monochromatic screen, once I get the stupid notepad open, but I need to be in the right light... wait never mind, the battery is dead.

    You cover some of the most nostalgic content... that a lot cover in a very mundane way, but you do it in an interesting way. Unfortunately I only stumbled upon you a couple weeks ago, but I guess I got years of videos to watch.

    Yo I'm going to be 100% honest,

    I do have a soft spot for portable stuff... its probably where I do the most gaming. Hell, I had a palm pilot at one point and it was mostly used for playing Wonderswan games. :P (and yes, LCD games count!)

    • @jnharton

      Wonderswan games seem like an odd choice. Exactly what Palm handheld was it?

    • @ZombiWorkshop
      @ZombiWorkshop Год назад

      @@jnharton No idea at all. It was decades ago now. I remember it having dark blue plastic and a "lid" that clipped onto the back. I may have been a generic "digital organiser" of some kind. Either way, it didn't do much, and finding out it could handle portable games was a boredom cure.

  • @BBC600

    I asked on Facebook but got no response. I'm curious what specifically about Northern Ireland law prevents this competition from being valid there? I know in Canada we have to answer a skill-testing question. If you want to include Quebec you have to register your contest with a competition bureau and it's so complicated that many completions say (excludes Quebec).

    • @rawhide2803
      @rawhide2803 Год назад +3

      I'm from Northern Ireland. The gambling laws are different here than in the rest of the UK. A competition like this can be considered as a 'game of chance' i.e.you have to buy something (the book) in order to enter. Once money changes hands it's technically gambling therefore different laws apply here NI. Madness? Yes but just the way it is in the wonderful 'United' Kingdom.
