Life Game

well here's my wise bullshit for today.
life is like a video game.
it really is.
you have your main character...
you train, you level, learn new skills...
you meet other members of the cast...
some are just great role models, others are just laughable.
you may lose a battle to a better player, it'll piss you off sometimes.
but you get over it.
i know i do when the AI in company of heroes starts maliciously ferociously starts pounding my strategies to shit...
but anyways.
you learn from it. defeat teaches you how to win.
you start looking for signs of that player's strategy in other player's style of playing.
sometimes you run into a character... and have their controller hanging out of their mouth like some cow eating hay.
then there are the kids who just eat glue a lot, not getting into that.
you have players who use the caht and are really friendly.
others that just like to cause shit.
those who are unfortunate enough that find themselves unable to find the words to say.
some are just quiet...
focused on the next strike.
the final kill.
the meal to come.
they are observant, patient, planning, they'll walk next to you.
every instant you are at their mercy.
one minute you're alive...
then...
WHAT THE FUCK!!!
I FUCKING DIED!!!
WHO KILLED ME!!!
if you are fortunate enough to have that guy on your team.
they are quiet.
they excel in all situations.
some games even allow cheat codes.
you can use them to help yourself and smite the people that you can.
you can justify it however you want.
lie to people say you didn't...
just as long as you admit to yourself...
i took shortcuts in my life.
your game.
it's your game.
play it how you wish.
unless you give your controller to another player and submit to their control over your life.
if you are independent enough...
it's all your's.
kill your whole fucking team.
work against them for the other team's gain.
use other characters for your own gain.
lose it all to some shitbag mcgee who looted your fucking treasure chest.
clip an old lady with your car.
cause fucking chaos everywhere.
your.
game.
sure, there are penalties for all of this shit...
but who cares.
if you don't mind the results...
do.
what.
you.
want.
even in other things.
you feel nervous about making a move.
it's ballsy.
you feel outnumbered.
should you surrender and submit?
OR KILL AS MANY FUCKING FUCKERS AS YOU CAN!
you're gonna die...
dig my grave wide.
because these motherfuckers are coming with me.
surrender, live to fight another day.
we are the players.
we live for the kill.
without regret.
regret slows down our next attack.
you need to stay on your feet.
AND GOD DAMMIT CONROY!!!
TIE YOUR FUCKING LACES!
keep that head on a swivel or you might miss something important.
sniper, box of kittens, easter egg, the horrors of existance...
you know... normal stuff.
love your game.
there are no retries.
it's a full fucking play through.
video games after all...
are simulated reality.
but yeah... i could go on about this forever and ever...
video games.
you diggin' it?
