One of these days, I'm pretty sure it's going to slip out. You should say that and see if any of them actually get it.

I would have, but I thought it sounded pretty rude*. But "'scuse me, Tron" doesn't quite have the same ring.

*Although, I suppose, so is crowding in a narrow space between wall and boards so the folks getting off the ice can barely get through, eh?

Probably not, not if they actually came over and said something-- 'cause that's geeky too. If I saw them giving me a weird look though, then I might be embarrassed.

Now, what might be embarrassing might be my reaction. "OMG YOU GUYS! IT'S TRON!"

Doubt Bruce or Garrett or Olivia or Jeff are gonna show up in the D, though, so I'm probably safe.

Ykywtmt when you are sorely pressed to resist the temptation to grab any frisbee you see, strike TRON's Victory/I/O Tower pose, and shout "I FIGHT FOR THE USERS!" or even "TRON LIVES!"

Cuz then I'd get fired for doing that in a customer's yard...

Oh no, I'm far worse.

When we had a file inspection at work and I was complaining about all of the extra work to other fans... I had to fight the urge to get my coworker to snap a pic of me in that pose, holding up one of my files.

By chance I watched Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure last night on TV.

For those of you who've never seen it, it's really funny comedy from the late-eighties about two Californian teenagers (Alex Winter and a rather young looking Keanu Reeves) who are visited by a time traveller from the distant future (in a time machine that looks like a phone kiosk) and tells them that unless they pass their history test the world will change dramatically.
The two of them then use the time-travelling phone kiosk to visit various historical periods to gather various historical figures to help them.

One of the characters they pick up (in the Old West) was Billy the Kid, and the reason why I'm saying this is because the guy who plays Billy the Kid is DAN STOHL, who played Ram in the original Tron movie!

Has a kid we use to have this on VHS Tape and we watched it lots of times, and yet it wasn't until last night that I recognised his face!

You mean Dan Shor, but yeah!

Actually, I pretty much spend the entirety of Tron going "aw, it's Billy." ('cause Bill and Ted is the one that goes back to my childhood for me, not Tron... I keep expecting Flynn to go, "Sounds good, Mr. The Kid!")

YKYWTMTWhen....
Your mantra is either "Flynn Lives" or "Tron Lives".

When you meet up with the possibly-stray dog who hangs around your building and ask him, "Where's your program? Won't he miss you? Oh, no, *I'm* not your program..."

nice!

haha, I have "FLYNN LIVES" and "TRON LIVES" on T-shirts!

I ordered two more T-shirts yesterday.

They're both black, and one has an Encom Lightcycle on it (like Flynn's, but blue), whilst the other has a Blue Identity Disk on the front.

They should arrive this week.

(Actually, the reason why I orderd them was because I thought I'd lost one of my old Tron T-shirts. It was black with Tron Legacy written on it and an Legacy Lightcycle on it. I looked EVERYWHERE for it, and only found it AFTER I orderded the two new T-shirts to replace it because I thought I'd lost it).
