You do realize a significant portion of the internet is porn, right? There is no world in which everyone has to go to a communal public building for their pornography consumption that I'd be happy with.

Probably not the worst I ever read, but whenever a question such as this comes up my mind immediately goes to one of the Tarot books by Piers Anthony. I don't remember which one, it was just in a pile of books people left in a dorm one time and I had nothing to read. I finished it, but I can't tell you anything about it other than the vague recollection that I hated it.

Was doing research on the background/origin of the key mask in Super Mario Bros. 2/Doki Doki Panic.

I silently lament that this experiment cannot be done at least once every couple weeks. I think it would be the most fascinating experiment to observe. Watching a new language develop naturally in real time!

I will also say it's hard to choose. I suppose it really depends on my mood or feelings at the time. However that being said, Pod People is the most memorable to me, followed extremely closely by Cavé Dwellers.

What do you use as a thousands separator then?

I'm mostly unfamiliar with different systems than the standard comma for thousands and period for decimal. I've seen period used for thousands before, but in that case how does one differentiate between a thousands period and a decimal period?

My friend and I saw Deep Impact in the theater, when the plan fails and the comet fragments are still going to hit earth, there is a dramatic moment when they explain to projected impact sites. One in the ocean and one ... in Canada. For whatever reason my friend and I both burst into laughter when they said Canada. The whole theater turned to glare at us.

Oh man, my family loved Super Solvers Midnight Rescue! I vividly remember playing that with my older siblings, but our monitor was green and black, no color, so I'd never actually seen it before in color. But the music stuck with me and probably sparked my love for In the Hall of The Mountain King.

Also had Ernie's magic shapes and colors... which was pretty hard to do when everything is green. What were my parents thinking buying a color matching game without a color monitor?

Combat on the Atari 2600. There are games I remember better, but I do know that was my favorite... just no one would play it with me.

I am not an expert in any field relating to any of this by any means, but we can all agree that CSAM is unequivocally reprehensible. Thusly many people will have severe issues with anything that normalizes it even remotely. That would be my knee jerk response anyway.
