I dunno, I've been jumping and slamming my head into bricks for years, and have never once gotten any money or food or flowers out of them.

Sad, but true. I can think of a few people I went to high school with that are unemployed and have more or less quit life to smoke weed and play Halo.

Yeah, video games are fun.... Gran Turismo 1-4, Heroes of the Pacific...

but if you stop living your life to PLAY 24/7 in a virtual one, well, the word

I wish I had z's luck. I haven't touched anyone's mushroom in ages.
