Can someone post a screenshot of the 'MY NANITES' log? I think it's the one you find in that pleasure chamber on the rec deck. Thanks in advance.

Well, heres the text from it. I'll see if I can whip up a shot for you later.
[SPOILER]"Damn! Why don't I just make a bonfire and throw ALL my nanites on it. Last night with Nikki was amazing. Holo-woman, real woman, you gotta love technology. But I must have left ALL my nanites in her room in the Senusal Sim center. What a maroon."[/SPOILER]
If you don't mind me asking, what do you need the screen shot for?
Mr.WaeseL on 28/12/2007 at 08:25
I need to convince a friend the log was really in the game, because he doesn't believe me.

[SPOILER]I think the mall is correct. It's a nice tip on where to find a nice chunk of nanites.[/SPOILER]

Haha ... I thought the spelling mistake was Corinthian Jazz typing too fast, but it's in the original. I think the guy wants to be saying "What a moron", and not "What a maroon" color. It's sort of a funny typo.

I think Looney Tunes made up "what a maroon" so I could see how that could trickle into common usage. It may not be proper but it's popular.

You fail at culture.

What? It's Bugs Bunny. I guess I wasn't expecting it to be so time/culture-specific in that way, and I haven't really heard it outside that context, so I didn't catch the connection and figured it a typo. Everybody has an off day. If I would have heard it spoken (as opposed to just seeing the text), then I probably would have caught that ... which is probably why it didn't raise an eyebrow when I was originally playing the game. I caught it the first time around.

Yeah, I'd say I was having a bit of an off day when I posted that. I can't believe I forgot to also direct him to a post I had made just a couple days earlier as it had a link to where you could hear the log as well. Oh well, c'est la vie!
