Video Games


"Jump jump!! come on!! no..no... nonoonononno!!!! dang it! DIE DIE!!! HA!" " Move over! wait! You pushed me down a hole! HIYA!! TAKE THAT! OHNO! fuzz..."

These are the sounds that float up from our basement as my sisters struggle to master our new video game. Super Mario Brothers WII.

As they wave the controls in the air and yell things like " Wait for me!" and " Don't die!", it looks and sounds like some strange ritual dance. I can't help laughing.

It gets more interesting as they start to have conversations with each other.

" We need to visit the KILL IT! KILL IT! the uh , the library."

" Oh ya, my book is, AAH! dumb goomba!, my book, overdue, it is."

It's like Yoda speak with strange interjections. I love my sisters but I'm beginning to wonder just how much I could get for them at the funny farm.

My favorite part is when they start making up words like" snozle fluff", " Gooberfuzz", and "stinking-flying-stupid-whats-it".

And faces they make are to die for. With their tongues sticking out and there eyebrows doing a strange wiggling dance over their squinting eyes, that periodically widen and scrunch depending on what combination works best for which sister.

I'm beginning to think the secret to winning this game is holding your mouth right, standing on one foot, and saying some combination of magic words. When they finally figure out what combination that is... then maybe I'll try my hand at this madness. ;)
