We all know DDR, right? Yes, I'm sure we do. We've seen the crappy machines at Wal-Mart, the mall, or any other venue where teen-agers are liable to be rowdy and crazy. So Stuart, Joey, Sarah and I all went out to see King Kong last night. First off, King Kong is over three hours long. And that might be ok for some people, but honestly had Peter Jackson actually desired to make a decent movie with the film that he shot, it would have been around 45 minutes. Up until the moment they meet Kong the movie is pretty good. No over the top fight scenes between Kong and three T-rexs, no extended stampeding dinos, no crazy giant insect battles, and especially no "ice skating" in central park. Of course, all this does occur afterwards we meet Kong, and well.. it goes downhill faster than people falling off a cliff. And yes, it does take them a long ass time to get to the bottom, and usually not much worse for wear.
Anyways.. (this post is going to be long..) we got out of the movie without killing the annoying little bastards sitting behind us. Those kids were really pushing my last nerve.. and Stuart's also, which is odd taking into account Stuart is well.. Stuart. Anyways, we got out and were sitting around talking about the movie, when we noticed DDR. And not just DDR 2nd mix or something, this was DDR eXtreme or something. Below is a photo account of the Joey/Stuart head to head action.
Here they are starting the game. Clearly Stuart can't figure it out, and Joey appears to already be convulsing madly.
The game continues, Stuart is figuring things out and Joey refuses to even remove his hands from his pockets for he is a video game GOD! (Unfortunately this God-Like presence only appears in first person shooters released in the 90s.)
I won't tell you which, but one of them is not hitting the right arrow. Can you guess which one?
Joey finally removes his hands from his pockets in a desperate attempt to make up lost ground. But Stuart's uncanny balance and ability to match up what his little japenese avatar was doing proved to be the deciding factors in this clash of titans.
Ok, enough for now.. later.

Oh, I forgot to mention the repeated attempts by Joey to ruin Stuart's lead by madly jumping on Stuart's side of the game. Even with someone working against him Stuart comes out the DDR master.
please tell me there were 12 year old asian boys standing around laughing at yall?
I did not notice any, but perhaps that is because I was laughing so hard myself.
Liz, we wish you were here too.. Merry Xmas right back at you. Hope things are going fantastically well over there, or at least as good as can be.
Now when the name "STUART" is screamed throughout the land, it will not be only because Niki is mad at him. No, it will also be a call of triumph for DDR fans the world-over. "STUART" they will yell, and lo, they shall be victorious.
that made my evening. thanks dave. and stuart and joey, of course.
