454: You see in black and white
455: If you blink really fast you can see shades of grey
456: If you squint and strain your eyes really hard you can almost see blue...

460: When you refer to AAAs (batteries), you say tr1p1eas instead.

It's a pun on "Triple A", type of battery, and "tr1p1ea", username of community member.

I can't bother to look through to see if these have been mentioned, but anyway:

461. You bought a TI-73 just to port your 83+ programs to it.
462. You bought a TI-80 just to see if you can hack it for assembly.
462. You bought a TI-81 just to try out the assembly hacks.



The userbars in my sig are links embedded links.

And in addition to calculator (and Python!) stuff, I mod Civilization 4 (frequently with Python).

yeah, I knew that, I just didn't get the pun.  I always think of "AAA"s as A-A-A, not as triple A's.  It's kind of hard to not know tr1p1ea's behind Desolate when his name pops up at the beginning of such a great game.  :)

Oh right I forgot he had his nick in the game x.x

It has been a long while since I truly tried it. The old MaxCoderz board was still up.

464. You beg to beta-test new calculator models.  You don't need to be paid, forced or asked.
465. You convert your computer OS into a TI OS

466: You convert the TI-OS into a computer OS (don't know why anyone'd actually do that, though :D)

468. You port Kerm Martian's Scouter program to the 84+, and it runs faster.

469. Instead of relaxing with Starcraft II, you only play it long and hard enough to port it to the nspire
