I am so happy to have a new friend. I have two friends now! And one of them is a girl! I have a girl friend!. No, wait she isn't my girlfriend. I have no girlfriend. God damnit I have no girlfriend, I hate my life. Jesus Christ on a crutch.
So for christmas I dropped a buck seventy on my sister...
(why Joey, why would you spend that much on your sister?)
Because I'm a good brother, parenthetic cheapskate.
And bought her a gba sp with super mario bros. 3, a game we used to obsess over as small, obsessive children. Today I fruitlessly spent on said game, rekindling my old obsession and it led me to posit on the nature of video games. Video games used to be much, much scarier. Sure, now you've got scary scary games with zombies and ghosts and they're all quiet and suspenseful. In Mario Bros. I damn near had a heart attack because I had to run across spokes and lava, with fireballs shooting up, running from ghosts (with teeth) and humongous crashing blocks of stone (with teeth on my way to fight a spiky, blinking dragon. There is nothing scarier than that. I have typed way, way too much.
