My Toe! My Toe!

Adam came home a little while ago. After we prepared our dinner of tilapia and vegetable soup, he went upstairs and turned on the PlayStation 3. After a few minutes, I hear him yell, "Oh! Wow! Really? Yes! Hey, honey! Guess what?" I came into the den, and he pointed at the screen, and he said, "Look what just became available for the PS3!" I looked.

TMNT: Turtles In Time.

The noise I then made would most likely only be heard by dogs. It was followed by a slightly more audible "EEEEeeee YAY!" followed by a little dance.

See, I don't really play video games. But I used to. When I was a kid, I had a SuperNintendo, and then a SegaGenesis, and my very favorite game was the original Turtles In Time. I must have beat that game I don't know how many times. My love for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles never died, of course. But I missed that game. When Adam got his PlayStation 3, I kind of mourned the fact that the system didn't have a version of Turtles In Time.

Now it does.

It did always bug me that Partners In Kryme sang about Raphael being the leader instead of Leonardo...

I always had the theory that Raph threatened partners in kryme like "I'm the leader, gawdamnit! Don't MAKE me break yer face!" They just didn't think it was worth the fight. .... of course, there's the explaination that SOMEONE didn't do thier fact checking before recording the song :p Also, Leonardo has 4 syllables and they needed a 3-syllable name (Raphael) and they were too lazy to try and fix it. Punkasses. *keels dem wit her mind* ;D

They could have just not said anyone was the leader. You know, um, "one other fellow, Raphael, he's the hothead of the group" (or some other two-syllable description). But, hey, that's just my logic! *GRIN*

I always saw Raphael as emo!Turtle. Leonardo was very firmly the leader!

I think those singers screwed up for some unknown reason!
Raph was always a hothead, not a leader!

I always so Raph as being this hot head who could go into brooding sometimes. he needed a strong leader like Leo to help him stay calm and stay out of a brood.
