Just a tidbit that some of you prolly already knew: Chuck E. Cheese’s Pizza Time Theatre, designed to introduce video games to a younger audience within a public family setting rather than in a bowling alley or a bar, was launched by Atari founder Nolan Bushnell. So there you have the connection between pizza and video games. I never much cared for the pizza and the video games, nah, not with screaming kids around. But nobody told me there was a floor show! Just how attractive were the cat-fight contestants 😉 ---

[QUOTE=Freudian Slit] You haven’t spent much time in an all female middle school, have you? :eek: [/QUOTE] No, but I do coach girl’s volleyball…HS freshman and sophomores (been coaching the same group since 5th grade). I’ll stand by my statement. They’re still smarter than their male peers. That said, I think the gum stuck to the bottom of my shoe is smarter than guys at that age. ---

It’s not that adolescent boys are stupid, it’s that the IQ of an adolescent boy is inversely proportional to the number of adolescent boys in the immediate area. ---

What baffles me is how incredibly bad their pizza is. They must go way out of their way to manufacture pizza that bad, because your random nameless hole-in-the-wall pizza place ALWAYS has vastly better pizza. ---

[/QUOTE] Oh yeah, but smartness doesn’t have anything to do with the ability to get into pointless fights/put downs/passive aggressive arguments. Girls are KING at that.
