A subject of controversy between "old-school" and more recent FF fans. Those who started with FF7 almost invariably say that it is the best one in the series, while those who have played the earlier games mostly think that while FMV scenes and improved graphics are nice, they don't make the game. This latter group tends to consider FF7 to be, while good, highly overrated.

A high quality brand of kitchen cutlery with a guarantee and marketing campaign based on the concept of never having to buy another tool for a given purpose. Illustrates the infuriating tendency of most people to refuse to give salespeople a chance no matter what the product is, and to balk at a high up-front price while not truly realizing the costs of any alternative. The sales program tends to breed cynicism in those who fail to make it in the long term, which unfortunately is most people.
Rep: "...and they pay me just for showing a product to---"

A form of English characterized by bad translation from Japanese by someone who is decent at translating vocabulary but has a poor grasp of English grammar. Tends to be a word-by-word literal translation with humorous results for native English speakers. Engrish is most common in old video games and anime subtitles.
The term "Engrish" comes from the fact that the Japanese language does not have distinct L and R sounds. They do have a consonant that is roughly somewhere in between these two sounds, but whether this translates to L or R in English depends on the situation (and therefore can be interpreted wrong.)

All your base are belong to us. (Your bases are all under our control.)

Somebody set up us the bomb. (Someone has placed a bomb on our ship!)*
Make your time. (I have no idea what this means.)
*PS: The original form of this is "set up us," not "set us up" as most people say it. If you're going to make fun of the bad translation, try to get all the mistakes.

To go to a place that offers goods, services or facilities that allow you to do something you need to do before or during a trip or errand.
Hmm, I'm out of cash. Excuse me, I need to go hit up the ATM.
It's a good idea to hit up the bathroom before you start a road trip. And you may need to hit up a gas station on your way out.
