I heard that Yamauchi eats kittens whole for breakfast, while resting on his bed thats made entirely of human skin from the backs of Sony execs.

See, I'd have to respect him then. Not for the kittens, but because, given that Sony execs are tiny, irritable people, that bed would have to be made of at least 30 of them.

Why wouldn't I like it?

I'd assume the beef and broccoli part..

I heard from a friend who heard it from a friend that Yamauchi once broke a PS2 in half with his fist ala kung fu style at a dinner party at Miyamoto's house.

I just don't see what beef and broccoli have to do with kittens. They are made of kittens, are they?
If it's supposed to be a non sequitor, why would I be offended?

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #57 on:** March 18, 2006, 03:48:54 PM »

I don't expect you'd seriously be offended by it. I love cats and I made the thing.

The joke is that it starts out as one of those relaxation or inspirational messages that no one likes but someone keeps insisting work, but then veers off into suggesting that beef and broccoli (and other manners of chinese food by association) is actually cat.

beef and broccoli does not suggest chinese food to me. both are used in many other quisines (sp?) around the world. Are you trying to suggest that a hamburger is chinese food? Now that you have explained the joke I get it, but it doesnt work without the explanation.

TMW · « **Reply #59 on:** March 19, 2006, 08:03:18 AM »

Yeah, totally dude. I think its safe to say your joke needs a little more work.

I heard Yamauchi once flogged a boardmember with a NES controller cord for making a bad joke during a boardmeeting.

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #60 on:** March 19, 2006, 10:35:19 AM »

"Beef and Broccoli" is the name of a very common chinese dish, just like "Cashew Chicken", "Hunan Chicken", "Vegetable Fried Rice", etc. From there, the common joke that chinese food isn't made of the meat implied in the name but of cats and dogs logically follows.

IceCold got it. I'm not going to dumb it down for everyone else.

you should have called it "Kitten ChowFun<house>"

<inside these brackets the text should be considerably smaller that the rest>

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #62 on:** March 19, 2006, 09:52:54 PM »

Ah, alright. I don't think you need to change it, I just wasn't aware of the implication.
I mean, I figured you meant the kittens were turned into "beef", but the Chinese thing didn't register.

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #63 on:** March 20, 2006, 08:13:15 AM »

Actually, you've given me some ideas. You and BNM.

First of all, the "dumb it down" comment was unwarranted. I apologize.

Second, I think I have a way of making the joke far less subtle but I'd need to find the right pictures. Let me see what I can do...

Ugg, shills bumping ancient posts for the sake of post count.

Lovely.

Made me realize what a callous ass I was in this post, though. I sure mellowed out a lot.

Also, half of these people don't even post here anymore.

Having a woman does that to you.
