|  "Back from Veracruz and the rest of Mexico!"
, posted Mon 29 Jul 11:05
Okay -- before I start posting, let me just make a request, if what I read is true:
NOOOOOO!! TalbainEric, DON'T LEAVE US!!
Now to the message. :)
Whew! Well, folks, I'm now back from Mexico, and had a great time down there. Got a chance to meet up again with several family members on both sides of the family, and got to experience a couple of things down there that I hadn't in a while -- for example, I still think that Coca-Cola and Zucharitas (Frosted Flakes) taste better in Mexico for some odd reason. Also, it was oddly wonderful seeing again so many familiar examples of copyright infringement (like Disney characters plastered all over different stores), plus big MIRC icons painted on the front of public Internet stations... ;D
The wedding and after-festivities were also great. Because this second uncle of mine is only about ten years older than I am, it really was almost like watching a cousin get married. Well, either way, I wish 'em the best.
Also, down in Veracruz, unexpectedly, I got my first chances to play KOF 2000 and KOF 2001. While the rest of the extended family was basically resting, I basically stole a couple of chances. I could only play one credit each game, though. I took advantage of them -- I chose my edit team of Shingo, Yuri, Joe, and Xiangfei and proceeded to pummel through a few characters. Unfortunately, these games were all somewhat rushed -- but I'm patiently waiting for the chance to play the home versions of these games. ;)
Also, up in Monterrey with some other cousins of mine, I finally got a chance to fool around with the full versions of Smash Bros. Melee and Bloody Roar: Primal Fury. Awesome experiences -- but I know I need to work on BR strategy a bit when a 5-year old button masher can defeat me. ;)
Ah, it was all great, and now I can return (hopefully, barring some heavy-busy times here and there) to post here regularly. But, since this might be one of the last times I get to go down to Mexico with family, I at least got a couple of souvenirs for you guys...
A Club Nintendo magazine and a Ganzipaleta plastic catapult toy from a Gansitos package!
Club Nintendo magazine: "I am the spawn of Satan! BWA HA HA HA!" *KABOOOOM* *buuuuuuuuuuuuuurn...* *...poof!*
...!?
Well, at least there's still this Ganzipaleta plastic catapult toy...
*SNAP!*
*sniff* It broke...

Ah fellow dog is back!
Yes Coca Cola tastes better over there, my theory is that they add way more sugar on the drink, or maybe some secret ingredient. Now always remember if you are to drink from a glass bottle put the bottle against the light in case there is a surprise inside (once i got a lolly pop stick, my aunt found a rat's head, must be Fox's doing!) All the cereals taste better too. HMmmmm son GRRRRIQUISIMOS!
Rat head!? Ahora con mas proteinas! (Now with more protein!)
quote:
Theres a huge kof fan base in Mexico (hence the addition of Ramon, Angel, and the Mexican stage! thanks SNK!) you ar e sure to get some great matches over there, but beware of "tranzeros."
Yeah, there were a couple of folks huddled around the machine. Might've been more if the mall wasn't about to close, but, yeah, I got good matches. (I.E. I lost. ;] )
What would the tranzeros be?

Next toy in gansitos will be plastic uzis. Recueeerdame.
Whee! With the last commercial I saw of Gansitos in Mexico, going for the cool-extreme culture, I wouldn't doubt it! ;D
Oddly enough, though, at least Gansitos commercials seem to be making their way to the States, too. Futbol commercial, and the Gansito actually yelled out in the end "Remember me!" in a somewhat Mexican/Spanish accent (although, being as there are several Mexican accents, I can't really point at just one).

Hey OmegaPerro! Welcome back!
We've been missing you!
Cool, your travel and family reunion was pure success.
Even when I don't like Coca Cola, Gansitos or Zucaritas, I'm glad you like them better in México than in USA...
Wait, why are we talking in english???
*turns off the english mode*
Ahh, eso esta mucho mejor!
Asi que conseguiste una revista de Club Mintiendo?? ha ha, que dicen ahora? deben estar todos orgasmeados con el Resident Evil de GC, y hasta tal vez comparen las graficas del RE de GC con el de PSX... no me extrañaria nada...
En fin, no hablemos de cosas tristes...
Y truqueros, tranzeros, trabucles, barqueros y demas adjetivos, son el equivalente de "cheap" en ingles, ya sabes, ese tipo de mocosos que usan una estupida jugada una y otra y otra y otra vez... Y lo peor de todo es que se sienten grandes cuando te ganan asi, ha ha, pobres animales...
Bueno, creo que es todo por ahora, nos veremos despues en... bueno, aqui en este foro del Cafe del Loco (ha ha).

Bueno, ya que me dejaste hablar en español... ;)
Es la verdad que normalmente no tomo Coca Cola, ni como Gansitos ni Zucaritas. Pero, nadamas les probé, como normalmente no tengo chance de probarles. Es mejor por mi salud. "SALUD ES BELLEZA."

Je je... no es la verdad que consegui una revista de Club Nintendo. Pero, mis primos en Monterrey (de edades 12, 10, y 5) tenían un montón de esas revistas. Bueno, nadamas estaba leyendo cosas muy positivas para el KOF para el GBA. Y con todas las cosas malas que estaba leyendo en otros lugares en el Internet, bueno... no fue bien. Y mas cosas, que DDR Disney para N64 "es muy divertido", y mas y mas...

Ah, ya entiendo. He visto ese tipo de gente en Mexico (en Tamaulipas), pero no jugue contra el. Fortunadamente, luchaba contra mejores jugadores.

Hey welcome back!! Yes, sad to say a couple of old-timers have left the board while you are gone. Hopefully they will be back. Glad to know you had a good trip in Mexico...
Yeah, 'twas good. And here's hoping those folks will be back. If not by their own accord, then maybe by lasso. ;)
Now for Omar's comments:

Dirt: the secret ingredient. :D
Now, I thought the Choco Krispis had a distinct flavor...

AUGH! Don't release any more classified information! What next? Are you going to tell them my base is in the Plaza Sesamo park?!
... oh, crap.

*LOL*
Next time you are here get Atomix instead of Club Nintendo. I'ts evil and unholy in many diferent ways and will probably eat your soul and steal your food, even tough it does not need food or souls to survive.
WHAT?! What nonsense you speak, lad! Why would ATOMIX IS MY LORD AND MASTER... *droooool...*
