Um, okay...
Okay, here's a real PNQ... Why do Canadians use the name Kraft Dinner? Putting aside the fact that macaroni and cheese isn't quite a full meal by itself (at least it's not SUPPOSED to be...), Kraft Dinner isn't really descriptive of anything in particular, least of all a specific style of macaroni and cheese.

That answered absolutely nothing. I wasn't asking WHETHER, I was asking WHY. As in "WHY is it called Kraft Dinner?" I'm not bashing the product (in fact, both as a poor college student and now a poor ex-college student, it is a staple), I'm just asking why it's called what it is in Canada.

Would Ocarina of Time have been more fun or too easy if the Iron Boots and Hover Boots had been equippable as C-items instead of having to manually switching them in the subscreens?

That would have been a significant improvement. I remember without that, it went something like:
5 Open menu 10 Equip Iron Boots 15 Close menu 20 Fall past where you're supposed to go 25 Open menu 30 Remove Iron Boots 35 Close menu 40 Rise above where you're supposed to go 45 GOTO 5 for two or three loops.

I only know SQUIDTRAN myself, and that's purely by dint of having made it up this instant.
