Would that be the generic programming trading cards, anime, or computer
games? Have you collected them all?
Although at your age... sheesh. The target audience of those paradigms
is really preteen children, you know.

Should I admit to owning the Pokemon Trainer's Handbook? Nah, I guess
that would be a bit sad...
What can I say? It was the least boring thing on TV. Later they added
Yu-gi-oh, which was generally more interesting. (Hmm, I'm not really
helping my case here, am I?)

I saw yu-gi-oh or some such (I think it was at least) for a brief few
minutes while flipping channels one day. All it seemed to be was a big
ad for the trading card game "My such and such tempest dragon whizbang
has 42 hit points, 80 attach points, and 30 defense points and can beat
the snot out of your overdeveloped domestic cat"

...which is amusing, since (AFAIK) the cards featured aren't actually on
sale anywhere. (There's a Bash.org quote about this, but I can't find it
right now since the site is still down.)

Hell *I* didn't.
And reading it, you start wondering if whoever came up with it should
maybe start taking something... o_O
