This afternoon I came across this picture. It spoke to me in so many ways. I had to share it with you.
1. I can’t really walk these days (or drive), but this little girl is and it made me jealouS.
2. Since I can’t go out unless it’s w/ wes or ted driving…I’m stuck at home  (as if I really had places to go w/out them) and so my options for entertainment are computer and video games. I have a wii.
3. This girl combines both walking, and wii and throws it in my fayce
4. The covers as shoes reminded me of the Jelly shoes that girls used to wear when I was in elementary school. Is anyone reading old enough to remember that?Â
5. It made me wish I was a kid again, when my feet could prob do the same. Nowadays I don’t think I could even get my big toe in there.
QUESTION!
Gameboy ~ DS. sorta. not really.
If I missed one…put it in the comments. You get a virtual high-five. I’d be really surprised if ppl out there still had their Dreamcasts, Atari Jaguars, Nintendo Famicoms, etc.
Oh, and this video might be old to some of you, not sure how far it got around…but it’s hilarioussss. Been meaning to share it with y’all. How many of you are like this girl and that’s pretty much how of the story you know, and how many of you are like the guy and laughing your butt off at “Hans”?

I have a wii, 360, ds and ps2. I technically have a ps3 and a psp. But my brother has it. I did have all of the older systems except the n64 and atari but my parents shipped it to the philippines when we got newer systems. (cries)Phil I thought you guys have a 360 in ur house also? I swear I remember seeing one in your video that you guys announced the nice guy contest.

Wii ftw.
I’m pretty young but my friend still likes to wear jelly shoes…

Every console until my PS2 was a hand me down and didnt get htem till like 3 years after it was released. So lets see:
3 NES (some randomly work)
2 SNES ( 1 US, 1 Japan)
1 N64
1 Dreamcast with NES emulation
3 PS2 (they break so easily)
1 Gamecube
1 PS3
1 Wii modded to play old NES games
It looks like I’m a big gamer but not really. I only play my wii for classic 8 bit games. Yes I’m very retro

Actually… as weird as this may sound, I still have the Atari lying around somewhere in the house. But, of course, I haven’t played that thing in ages.

I’ve never had a gaming system in my life. -sadness- But I did play Gunbound and Ragnarok on my computer.
LawLL. Oh wait! I had a Gameboy Color. The only game I had was Pokemon Silver. My parents wouldn’t get me new games
But now I just play Wii or PS3 at my friend’s house. Raving Rabbids!!!

i don’t get it. nooooooooooooooo…!!! =(

I used to have a PS2, but it was stolen a couple of years ago. Now all I’ve got is a PS1 (free gift, lol), and a Nintendo DS (which is on loan in Koreaaa). You totally forgot arcade gamers! California is the number one arcade state in the US (though not a quarter of what it was ten years ago), it’s a major disrespect to the old-schoolers. Here’s a vote for arcade!
You guys are such an influence. Just got Far East Movement’s A-a-a-a-a-animal.
