Yeah, if I had been there when Chernobyl had that melt-down, I'd be dead for sure.

Seriously, let's have some more diverse topic titles, eh?

Actually, my parents and myself were in the area(in Europe) when that radiation cloud passed over. 1986-1987 were the years that I spent living in Germany( as a young child).

I've kicked a bucket before.

What was this radiation cloud? A cloud of acid rain was in the air I take it?

No, when Chernobyl exploded, it released a massive amount of radiation into the sky, that passed over Europe and other countries in a large mass until it dispersed. There was some hysteria over it, and some believe that people have suffered ill effects from it despite not having been anywhere near the site of the explosion.

:eyebrow: wha? did i miss something? or is it the magic kool-aid that's manipulating my mind? 😕 i think i just went cross-eyed.....

i always knew that magic kool aide was trouble... DAMN YOU HAPPY FAT TALKING KOOL AIDE PITCHER!!! DAMN YOU AND YOUR MANIPULATIVE SMILE!

Ah, thanks for the explaination, Daarkseid.

The Hsu and Chan comic is using what Daarkseid said about Chernobyl, that's where it comes from apparently.

Hsu and Chan are great. For everyone asking, Mr. Z was talking about a specific comic strip of "Hsu and Chan: Video Game Designers" that appears in EGM, where the two brothers copy Pokemon and create "Chernobly!", a radioactive little hamster monster.
