That’s always what people say who give the presents. The guy on the receiving end would probably rather have it the other way around: “it’s the amount spent, not the thought’ 😛
Yeah, me too! I know I once got one from the library and ‘played’ it. But that was years and years ago. Never saw one ever since – guess it’s just something ancient from our childhood 😉
Well… guess since he’s working in a comic book store, he must have read at least a couple of comics. Otherwise he’s just a lousy comic book store employee 🙂
I remember those books. I think they tried to bring them back a few years ago back in the US. I don’t know how well they do in the internet age though.
