How is this blog post not closed yet? I wrote a similar blog post a month back which was closed by Micronesia because it was deemed to be of low quality and I wouldn't hesitate to call this blog post, like mine, a low quality one as well lol.

lol wp but I already know I can't report it. I don't need to though. I'm sure a mod will see it and decide what do but I'd rather TL made no exceptions for anyone in regards to blog quality otherwise we might as well bring back SoR, FP, Shauni and others who had some rather bizzare, odd and at times, interesting and funny blogs.

which could've been formatted a lot better? I have no problems with the youtube stuff but the terrible formatting greatly lowers the blog's quality imo. I'm using a netbook right now and the big letters make scrolling down pretty terrible. I can only imagine what random visitors to the site think when they see blogs with this format (will think its acceptable etc...)

yes, the blog section in TL can be a place of madness but your second part isn't fully correct. If a blog post is deemed low quality, it also gets closed. Yoko's posts weren't offensive but were deemed low quality because they made no sense. I think despite this blog having a point behind it (I clicked it because I saw the title reference), the formatting affects its quality. Anyways, I'm not trying to kill 'fun' on TL lol, but, I do think that this blog should at least have better formatting to maintain its open status.

I clicked on this blog to make a joke about the Flock of Seagulls song, assuming that it would actually be about something else, and then it was ACTUALLY JUST ABOUT THE FLOCK OF SEAGULLS SONG.

1982 was a big year guys.

Joe Theisman won teh super bowl. You think he is hard to listen to now.. imagine having to listen to him yap about winning the super bowl.

The NFL's 1st modern day black QB won his 5th Grey Cup in a row. RGee who?

Steve Podborski became the first North American to win the World Cup season title in downhill skiing.

Italy won the World Cup.

its the only year the Vancouver Canucks lost in the Stanley Cup finals and half the vancouver police force didn't have to quell a riot.

But, most importantly, our favourite software publisher that we all know and love... and love giving money to..... they became a super power in 1982. They released Enduro, Chopper Command, Pitfall ,and River Raid. These 4 games were 10,000X better than any other Atari 2600 games ever made. This gave the brand legendary status.

1982 was awesome.

Those are some good additions. Thriller is called the "#1 selling Album" of all time. whatever an "Album" is. LOL

The Commodore 64 came out in January 1982 and is the #1 reason for the B.S./made-up "video game market crash of 1983". There was no "crash". People played more games in 1983 than ever before.

Because the Atari2600 was owned by a media company ( Time-Warner) some narrative had to be invented about why it went into a huge decline in 1983. So they invented the "video game crash of 1983". The bottom line is the Commodore 64 is 100X better and you could pirate every game. The Commodore 64 was the #1 game machine from the day it was released and crushed the competition.

Well no it was more in relation to consoles. The Commodore 64 was part of the crash because it took so many sales away from consoles, and even had trade-in promotions to get people to part with their consoles.

80s music!!!

there are an incredible number of misunderstood bands from this time period and a flock of seagulls are no exception

people ought to listen to at least the debut LP before passing judgement, and their follow-up "listen" is quite strong as well. The debut is quite dark and it's easier to appreciate this song's real theme of reaching for unattainable fantasies within the context of the album as a whole.

the guitarist, Paul Reynolds I think, really gave the band a unique sound as well

Well no it was more in relation to consoles. The Commodore 64 was part of the crash because it took so many sales away from consoles, and even had trade-in promotions to get people to part with their consoles.


the story from my 40+ year old relatives and my 2v2 playing partner is that the C64 was piracy heaven. it was easy to own 200+ games for the C64 and impossible to do so on a console where piracy was non-existent.

Although the C64 is called a "computer" it was a game machine. Modems were uncommon because you had to pay giant long distance telephone charges in 1982. You could only contact other local computers and there was no standards. A Commodore64 computer could not call up an Atari800 Bulletin Board and use it... or an Apple2 bulletin board.. etc etc.

Printing was possible, but academic institutions viewed the primitive dot-matrix printer output an unacceptable document. The Dot-Matrix printer also could not do footnotes and a bibliography in an acceptable way. There was no laser printer.

The C64 was labelled a computer because it had a keyboard. In 1982/3 it was never used in the way we use computers today. Essentially, the C64 and Atari 400/800 were game machines.

Not my cup of tea (although 80ies music is what I sing to my kids

I agree with 'fan, the "simple" blog policy has been "so so" in respect to closing or not closing.

Mmmm, also 80ies forever
