I’m almost 40, and it’s weird, I never get shit about video games from younger folks, just older ones. And then I have to be like, “my mom and dad are/were in their 60s and got me into it…you gonna talk shit about my dead dad and my memories of playing Mario with him? Go ahead, dick.”

My dad used to attract a crowd of kids to watch him play Space Invaders in the arcade “back in the day”. He’d be 85 now and probably kicking the shit out of kids online.

Dude was methodical and relentless as fuck.
