Leisure Suit Larry

When I was younger, I was "exposed" to Leisure Suit Larry. Y'all know what it is, right? (If not, it's a video game where the goal is to get laid as often as possible. So...you can imagine what kind of game it is...) So, I dunno how, but my brother got his hands on this game, and me being the pesky younger sister, watched my brother play this game when I was all of 10 years old or something. Not fully understanding it all, I just remember thinking, "I probably shouldn't be playing/watching this" but it was rather humorous, so you kno, I went along with it.

Fast forward fifteen years to me and my PA talking (somehow, all weird/stupid conversations revolve around me and my PA). We somehow begin discussing the pronuciation of "leisure" and I mention that everyone says "lee-sure" for "Leisure Suit Larry". Of course...my PA had no idea what Leisure Suit Larry is, so I told him that it was a 'funny' video game and that he should look it up.

SO. Did you know that in the past fifteen years Leisure Suit Larry has released SEVEN versions and *vastly* improved its graphics and has also become MUCH MORE OPEN about its laviciousness? Yeah. So I didn't. My PA went and surfed a little bit through the website and was shocked and bemused at the content. "So, *this* is the kind of games you play on your free time." So, to try to explain myself, I went and looked up the website and was VERY *VERY* embarrassed. I tried to explain, but my PA would have none of it. I think I just gave him enough ammo to mock me for the next three years...
