[QUOTE="Day, post: 75190, member: 1967"] kind of similarly, but then kind of differently, i begin to start visualising pinball in real live objects, events, activities etc. as a fairly obvious connection, some of my userbase have 28" screens that they rotate and use in portrait mode (something to do with spreadsheet modelling); sure it's a nasty and counter intuitive way of using a screen for productivity, however work was the last thing I was thinking when I saw these strange inverted beasts. another example, I see ramps/slides in the park and imagine myself as the silver ball rolling down them, wondering where i'd career off. and see my miserable avatar, that ain't no badly rendered silverball. no siree, it's a photo of a giant revolving glitterball on blackpool UK promenade (boardwalk). I was imagining what damage I could do with a wrecking ball that size. champion pub..... bring it on. I've had plenty ,more such daydreams.... even drifting into TPA dreamland when looking at shiny chrome auto-bumpers. oh jeez, I'm becoming a lost cause. I did own a pin once years ago. a segassa baby doll. it was too much work to maintain and ultimately the sea air did for all those brass steppers/contacts [/QUOTE]
