Trivia a day

[Dartpaw]

For just some randomness each day I will say a piece of trivia.

Wednesday 15: Did you know the videogame the Legend of Zelda was inspired by videogame Legend Shigeru Miyamoto based on when he was a kid he would go exploring a small forest near his hometown and came across a cave. So with only a flashlight he went in seeing what he could discover.
He wanted kids across the world to experience what he experienced. (Exploring and adventure)
-----BONUS NOTE
Did you know in the videogame series Mario. The monster "Chain Chomp" which is just a black ball with eyes and teeth that barks and tries to attack Mario but a chain that tethers it to a post stops it from moving too far.
Well... that was inspired by the same person (creating both games as well as many others...)
From when he was a kid he was attacked by a dog on someone's lawn the dog went right for him but the chain snagged and stopped inches from his face.
All Shigeru saw was a bunch of teeth before he knew what exactly happened.

That is the inspiration to the Zelda Series, and the Mario enemy "Chomp"

-Okay it just passed Midnight as I was typing this. So technically I can do another trivia right now but I won't. ;D

Trivia- did you know...ummm...hmmm. Its...raining??

Ok. False. Well, true, but its not trivia. Wow...im not kidding, the same exact thing with the dogs happened to me. Except only one was on a chain. The one with three legs and small was on a chain, the big one came chargig towards me. God, you'll bet i ran across the street. Whenever i come to the corner that i have to turn arounf where those dogs live, i always get an adreniline rush and im ready to sprint across the street. Earliear, last year, a first grader was hit by a bus and killed on the last day of school. not kidding. She got behind the bus and...god. I'd hate to be a kid that was on that bus. "Cool! A pothole!" ... I was sad...

I really did not want to read that...
Poor kid.

For no real reason, I just gave up on the trivia a day thing...
I have another idea for a thread

[Lisolette]

That's the saddest thing ever, Luke! DD: *cuddles little girl in my mind*

[kidluke]

I was sad... I almost got hit by a car 3 TIMES THIS YEAR!! IN MY FIRST TWO MONTHS OF SEVENTH GRADE I'VE ALMOST BEEN HIT BY A CAR 3 TIMES!

1) i was about to cross when my old art teachers car pulled right up where i was about to step
2) almost got hit by bus when crossing street.
3) Was half way across street. Turned. Saw car coming towards. Varely jumped towards other side of street. Car just kept on going without stopping to see if I was hit or anything. Then a lady started screaming at me from her car window "Why did you do that?! Idiot!"

There's this STUPID blacvk car in my neighboorhood who ALWAYS speeds by, RIGHT PAST MY BUS STOP, and at the same time I het on the bus. Almost got hit twice!

What a strange thread this has turned into. I've got a story to contribute!

Last Sunday, I almost hit a deer on my way home from work. No joke. I live near D/FW (two big cities squashed together) so I never thought I'd see a deer. But there he was, a young buck with wimpy antlers prancing toward the road. He almost jumped in front of me but pulled up short - smart of him, cos as soon as I saw him I went, "*AAGHRAGFHKJLA;?!?" *franticpointlessflailing*, and swerved the wrong way. The car behind me swerved, too.
What on earth was a deer doing on the thin median between two constantly busy highways? Ohman. o.o

If anything, it woke me up. I got home very much awake. xD

I don't want to talk about accidents anymore but since you and the deer were okay I don't mind that.

Back to Trivia, in the Final Fantasy series the species Moogle.
Is called Moguri in Japan which is a mixture of the words:
Mogura (Meaning bat) and Komori (meaning mole) which is sort of what it is, a mixture of the two.
(But ten million times cuter than if an genetic crossbreed actually existed)
But in Final Fantasy 12 and the Tactics Advanced series they are more like rabbits.
Moogles are awesome!!

This article has everything you would need to know about them and has images on the page of one from each game and an Anime. (They have greatly developed changes throughout the series and they all look cool in their own way)

I am a HUGE final fantasy fan. My favourite videogame series.
Then the legend Zelda and third is tied between Professor Layton and Resident Evil.
Mario is fourth, Pokemon is Fifth.

I want to like Starfox. (Because it's Anthro animals in a futuristic space setting which sounds cool) but the games are one of those shooters where you just fly around and blow up enemy ships which is annoying. They only had one game where you walked around and fought enemies in paw to paw combat. (Starfox Adventure) but that was just boring because you don't go to any animal planets or cities. You're just on a planet occupied by dinosaurs the whole time.
