I have been watching videos like this for the past few weeks or so. I even watched an Ocarina of Time speed run that is just under five hours long. It is 1.25 GB and took forever to download. I don't know that I would want to try speed running myself, but I really like watching them.

I am too sensitive. It's hard enough for me to deal with someone saying something harsh to me, but flat out personal attacks really freak me out. I can't stand to argue. I doubt I could ever participate in the kinds of discussions that go on in the Current Events board unless I toughened up. Should I toughen up? Are there any merits to sensitivity like mine? I think I'm more sensitive than is healthy. I worry that if I were tougher I would be more mean. Maybe I should work on this.
Right now I really wish I could be a hermit. I would miss my loved ones but maybe I could be a hermit with internet access. (Is there a feminine form of "hermit"? Hermitess? Hermitrix?)
In the spoiler is a YouTube video of the world record Super Mario Bros. speed run. By Speed Demos Archive rules, the timing starts when the player presses start and ends when Mario touches the last axe.

I think I might be overly sensitive. I avoid conversations with strangers (or even people I know) because I am afraid I'll get a negative reaction. I was picked on a lot, and made fun of for dumb things I said. Also, people would drag me into conversations just tomake fun of me, or disagree with me. It makes it hard to meet people to date, or even friends. I'm so lame.
