All your base are belong to us?

[Sir Bamalot]

What does this mean?????? I can't figure it out, and I see it every now and again and want to know.

Thanks

All your threads are two days ago. Seriously, there was a thread like this from two days ago. The saying came from the video game "Zero Wing" on the Sega Genisis. It was porrly translated thus "All of your base belongs to us" becomes "all your base are belong to us". It's not that funny and is little more than a injoke for computer nerds.

Ahh, sweet memories of freshman year in college, watching the AYB bit in comp sci class.

What computer class was that in ShiplordAtvar? A 101 class? or higher?

I suppose it was a 100 level class, it was an introductory level computer science class (Programming Concepts 1, 54-183).
