Our Mighty Lord God skittrel was Floored With The Flu during the holiday festivities so he had HIs Own pal come in and write a post for him about a meaningful topic while he was cursed by his garbage, trash body and stuck in bed
arcades sure are cool aint they
just a bunch of real swell guys sitting in a booth hitting buttons with their greasy fingers
unaware about a greater expanse of time slipping past them never to be regained
later growing old and fruitlessly keeping their dying hobby alive to relive their glory days
in any case isn't it heck of weird that somehow in our real cool generation of all these consoles and pc stuff that the arcade hasnt been kept alive even though Great Goons still play fighting games over the world wide web like a bunch of fucked up little children still freaking out over learning how to throw a hadouken
maybe because Arcades carried with them a necessary physicality that is impossible to replicate
the smell of other players necks while you gently nuzzle them during a match of Great Samurai Swords II watching patiently for your chance to drip your hot quarters down the warm inviting slot of the arcade machine and play a round with a real good friend
to a limited extent this is still possible through digital platforms like STEAM but nothing beats the stained carpet and french-fry smell of your local arcade. maybe as a species its because we crave the attention of others and a high score etched forever into the memory banks of an arcade game is in our own heads more permanent then any accomplishment we make together as a species
arcades are impossible to recreate i guess
haha!! see you all in 2016!!
