On C64 the signs of puberty were usage of words like “lamer”, “loser/looser”
Loser vs looser was especially painful. “Haha, we know it’s loser but looser sounds cooler.” A lame cover up, somewhat contradicting the whole meaning.
90% of the scroll texts were about contrived stories of displaying superiority over lamers and losers.
The folks from Finland appeared to be a bit over the top with references to their weight lifting careers to appear like some sort of brutal fighting machine.
