A Life Less Ordinary, And More 8-Bit.

What if life were like Nintendo?

What if life came with a strategy guide?
What if life had a pause button?
What if life were as easy as passing the first level?
What if life had a restart button?
What if life had cheats codes?
What if life had an eject button?
What if life gave you continues?
What if life gave you instant gratification?
What if life had free lives available around every corner?
What if life were like Nintendo?
Then what would you do?

Answer accordingly,
~Curtis Rx

    If life were like Nintendo, where I could press a pause button…I would have saved myself from making some horrible mistakes. Sometimes I wish I could do that…

    let me think:
    My strategy guide would be worn and torn. My pause button would barely work. Sometimes I can’t get pass the first level. My restart button would break. I would lose my cheat codes. My eject button would get stuck every now and then. I would run out of free lives. And when I play an intense game…I don’t get any instant gratification.
    So if my life were like Nintendo…I’d still be screwed.

    Well if life were like nitendo i would:
    Tell Arokh he CAN land on that mountain (Drakken)
    Tell Leon he’s better off with a dog than Hunnigan(Resident Evil)
    Shoot the crap out of all the terrorists(any game that has guns and terrorists)
    Tell Bush he needs to get a life without saving and quickly restart my life from where i left off (aw crap! i forgot to save!!!)

    I wouldn’t change a thing.

    Yeah, I’ve made some mistakes, some bigger than others, but they’ve all changed me and molded me and made me stronger, made me who I am today.

    And I wouldn’t change that for the world.

    If life were like Nintendo?
    Damn, if life were like Nintendo
    I wouldn’t need to ask myself what I’d do-
    it’d be in a walkthrough.

    I’d be screwed, but if it is Guitar Hero with Miss Murder or Girls Not Grey or Medicate from AFI on it I would be VERY happy. or better… CF! :D

    I’d forget to save,
    Bring the mole to my door shouting “You impotent knave!”
    I’d fight with little pocket monsters wondering why this isn’t illegal,
    Poke fun at a stupid looking red and blue American eagle,
    I’d spawn a ring, a hobbit, a wizard, an elf
    Talk to an alchemical pot all by itself
    Bring on the Meta Knight, I’d say

    Take that Kirby!

    i sometimes DO imagine that life can be paused, restart, save n being restart again at the save point… that would be awesome, i won’t regret things i’ve done wrongly :)
