my lil brother still collects and plays yugioh, the other one does magic the gathering.
i make fun of both of 'em for it "wiimote in attack mode" was by far the funniest; think we caught a video of it hitting him ^_^
they were both into those pokemon trading cards or something; and pogs.. i just don't get the fascination with any of it. did try at one point but just thought bugger it, as the rules really are quite random imo
i mean i get the whole attack and defence thing, but then each card has "sub-rules" and summoning requirments and... something about paying tribute to the nerd god. guess the plus side is my lil bro doesn't LARP or LERP or LEAP... whatever the sod it's called where you dress up and become Ugoth of the Northwind tribe of giants or something; then go off to drink grog (which 9/10 ends up being fosters or something)
always try to support the crap my brothers are in to, but it's just so hard to well do something that by essence really points out the geeks and dorks in society; it's almost as obvious as make-up on guys = goth or emo (depending on the application or something) and addidas = chav.
still seems a tad shameful, but some people just love that who "play dressup" thing; sometimes not a bad thing.. but if it's someone trying to put me in a costume means there is something wrong with the universe.
that series though is piss funny though, i mean used to watch that show when it was first shown state-side (meh students never have better to do that watch cartoons or jenny jones
) .. so the piss-take is quite funny.
although I think DBZ might've really benefitted from the same treatment.
