50. I have asthma now, but apparently I don’t in the future. What the Flip?
Young Pixel here, responding to yesterday’s post. Here’s the necessary quote:
I told myself that I would eventually have enough disposable income to buy candies whenever I saw one of those machines and felt like a sweet confectionery.
Anyway, I realized that I wasn’t living up to the standards I had set for myself so long ago. I wasn’t going back in time and giving myself Super Nintendo games I picked up in a pawn (pwn!) shop, I wasn’t fighting crime, I wasn’t becoming a doctor president, I wasn’t finishing my collection of awesome ninja turtles and making time every day to play with them, and I wasn’t making $300k a year and buying my parents a house
…
So I’ve decided to make me proud. I’m going to work at it until I accomplish all of the goals I set for myself…
What the heck? For gosh’s sake, where do I flippin’ start with how he misrepresents me and what a disappointment he is? First of all, I never really expected to make $300k, that was just the amount of money that I would need to stay in a hotel in Hawai’i for ever. And I’m sooo through with ninja turtles. Now I’m onto X-Men. And that’s okay if I don’t play with them in the future. Who knows what toys will be popular then? And what the heck is the doctor president line? I have never EVER wanted to be a doctor.
But not bringing me back Nintendo games you bought in a pawn shop? Yeah, that’s just cold. Man, when the heckfire are you going to figure out time travel?? Because I need it now!
And frankly, the fact that you think you can appease me by buying 25¢ runts from a candy machine? Wow, I feel sorry for whomever you’re married to. That’s always just a passing fancy, I don’t know why you think you have to buy some every time in order to make me proud. It’s already far, far too late for that.
Yay to the little pixel! Note to self: money and things (except Nintendo games) will not make kids happy!
