So I'm playing Fallout and the TV is on in the background. Not sure why, but Wheel of Fortune is on. It's college week.

Guy routs his two female opponents and is at the final challenge or whatever. Nails his letters, and is left with the following:

MAG_C
_AND

He doesn't get it.

I imagine at that moment his dad turned to his mom and said, "I'm pretty sure we're wasting our money sending this moron to college."

I've not seen that show in years, and I can still recall the freebie letters. They're perma-stamped into my brain.

When I was wee and watched it with my grandmother they didn't have freebie letters.

Also there was a rotating prize wheel that peeps chose from after every round.
