In the video gaming world, zippers are those arrow marks on the road that make your car burst up to turbo speed for a bit. Good zipper games are RC Pro Am and RC Pro Am II for the NES, and Super RC Pro Am for the Game Boy.


For that crazy amusement park ride, see The Zipper.

Note that it wasn't until 1937 that zippers were largely embraced as a method of securing men's trousers. Apparently, it was French fashion designers (who else) who first decided that putting sharp interlocking metal teeth in the direct vicinity of the most vulnerable area of male anatomy was a perfectly reasonable and fashionable idea.

Just in case you really needed another reason to hate The French. kidding!
