Let's talk about sumthin fun, and sumthin I actually know a thing or two about. VIDEOGAMES! Some ppl ask, Why play videogames?..."waste their time" , they say....." you could be doing something productive, like your homework!" ....but u know what? Screw that! Life is not all about work. "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"....I'd say it makes him a putz. I know, sum ppl read, others write, others shoot squirrels with bb guns, but I play because I love it.....and because it helps me keep my head when i feel like im losing it. Yeah, i know, this is the world we live in, and we've got to play by these rules if we're ever to play, but no one ever stops to say..."man...these are some bullshit rules! Why in the world did i buy THIS game?"
We live in a world that dupes us, where our first words will probably be IPOD...and SEX!....We live in a world, a world filled with beautiful life, that gets lost over a few words of discomfort. We're rebels!...but against what?! I like videogames because they tell you whose the bad guy. No uncertainty..no 95% Confidence Interval (srry....i took stats dis summer..)...just plain good and plain bad. No gray areas...just red crosshairs.
But life doesnt come with a manual...does it?. Life never told me to look out for people close to me, ppl i assumed were lookin after me, and most of all it didnt tell me to look out for myself! Never said, "Dude! Behind you!" (or rather....right in front of you). Not until it was too late. Shit, in metal gear you at least get a radar!. We barely get hunches, and c'mon....HOW many hunches have you been right about? Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my life, and the ppl around me, and i TRUST most ppl that i call friends, and, as fun, awesome, good looking, great friend and HUMBLE as i am, I don't trust that easily...so those who are my friends...i do trust...wit all my heart, and i hope the feeling is mutual.
But shit is, life doesn't tell u this...no clear mission or anything....but worst is....it doesnt tell you that sometimes YOU get to play your own supervillain, and that sumtimes you think your high and almighty and think you can police the world and dare step on ppl that do not deserve it. Sumtimes we want to help but we cause more damage, trynna put fires out wit gasoline aint helpin...yet we see heroes of ourselves where other see just a dumbass. Sometimes we're the same ones we're losing to. Our side that seeks comformity, repetition, safe, but what's fun in safe? What's fun in playing the rules like we've been told!?
We live in a GREAT world, a place worth living in and dying for, yet we care more about brad and angelina's baby's bone structure?! Seriously!?....WTF?! I know i might be talkin out of my ass here...(like dats anythin new)....but we've lost ourselves to comformity! And yeah, im still a little kid and i still look up to my fake superheroes because this world's running a bit short! Ppl who stand up for what they believe in, even beliefs themselves are running short nowadays. But dammit! If there's something that one's gotta be hyped about is that its awesome to live! Yet we throw it away, comformity for freedom!. Sure, we don't get nightmares anymore, but when's the last time u really dreamt?
I know i sound crazy, talkin about videogame superheroes, but they're mine, the ideas embodied in them have long gone to waste here, Sure, they're not real, but what they represent it, or was, and i hope it'll be again. Telling the bad guys apart. Knowing, for sure, that it all work out in the end, that you're on the right side! Sorry....dunno why im even writing this...its not like im the poster boy for my own words...jeje..(dont worry, im not gonna say hope that i could summon Bahamut on my teachers....although it'd be pretty sweet..)..i hope i actually WROTE something down of the things i wanted to say, not known for words or eloquence but here are my delusions of some crazy mofo, but would u have me any other way?
batman beats superman any day of the week :)
