BLOOP BLOOP

I'm not much of an impulse buyer, but I saw this today and read the description and it made me laugh... thus I decided I had to have it.







The description is:

Infinite Protection in a Track Jacket

Wouldn't life be a hell of a lot easier if it were a video game? Concrete goals like "Save the Princess" would make worries like "What college do I attend?" completely obsolete. No more confusion about who your enemies are... just steer clear of any spiky shells or strange turtle dragon hybrids.

Of course the 1up Mushroom would be there to help. Many times in life we avoid taking a risk because of the dire consequences (death, dismemberment) involved. Collect a 1up mushroom and you would have card blanche to try pretty much anything with no permanent repercussions. So go ahead... stick that plasma mug in the microwave for 30 minutes. When your house turns into a nuclear waste site simply use your 1up Mushroom to re-spawn at the beginning of the level. No muss... no fuss... we would.


I can't wait to be able to walk around the city jumping on things to squish them and jumping over spiny critters. I might even accidentally impale myself now and then... the 1up will fix all. Hehe!
