Okay, COMPLETELY off topic here but anyway: Pretty much everyone knows the Konami Contra code. Apparently the guys over at Digg have a sense of humour - they've put in an easter egg on their website that if you use the keyboard and enter the contra code it will expand the comments so that they're not nested on each page.

I'm reading this, and I recognize it as English, but I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Video Game Speak?

Yup. There's a famous cheat code for Contra. I *believe* it was for the original NES version. Well the guy's over at Digg.com hid the code in their comments system so that if you enter it in, it will show all the nested comments in a full expanded tree. I'm pretty sure the code is:
up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, a, b, a, b, start

The SELECT button was used if it was a two-player game. Otherwise, the code was up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start.
It wasn't just for Contra, either. It worked with several Konami games, most notably, Lifeforce. And I think a similar code worked for Super C, or whatever the sequel to Contra was.
