F; And those rocks are ….
D; The asteroid belt.
F; I see. You know, our solar system evolved from a gigantic cloud of dust and gas.
D; In other words, a nebula.
F; You know what you're talking about.
D; I learned it from a video game.
F; For heaven's sake!
D; My favorite game is Planetary Conquest and so far conquered Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus.
F; What about earth?
D: What about it?
F; Have you conquered earth yet?
D; No.
F; Why not?
D; It’s no fun and it's too close.
F; For heaven's sake!

K; Whew! That was fast.
T; Yeah, faster than a speeding bullet.　※ Faster than a speeding bullet!　弾よりも早く
K; Yes. She knows what she's talking about.
J; Yeah, and kids do talk fast.
T; I have a question.
K&J; Yes.
T; Do you play video games ever?
J; Ah, not any more.
K: Ya, you know, I don't.
T; What kind of video games did you play?
J; When I was in college I was working in an electronic store, and that was the first time that Pong and Space Invaders came out.　　　※ Pong テニスのビデオゲーム
T; Oh!
J; Do you remember the old one?
T; Yes, I remember.
J; And we used to play that all day because nobody would come into the store.
K; You got paid to play video games?
J; I got paid to play video games.
T; That was a genesis I should say.　　　※ genesis　《複》geneses　起こり、起源、創始　
J; It was! No three-dimensional games. They were just two-dimensional. One was even just black and white.
K; Wow!
T; So you don't know much about new games.
J; No, not about new ones, but I played the old ones so much I know what I'm talking about.
T; Great!
