I’m pissed off at games!

Anger runs in my veins! Whenever I’m playing a game and loose for no apparent reason i tend to go on a swearing rampage! The games that tend to make me do this are the games that i tend to play a lot! Games like Mario Kart and Smash Bros are the most constant ones but sometimes games like Kameo and, if my memory serves, Vivá pinata!

I have a vague idea of why this happens. On most games it’s because of an annoying AI or other player who beats you at the last second or because you do something ridiculous. Let’s take Brawl for an Example shall we? Many a time when i am online, i tend to SD (Self-destruct) which makes me rather angry. It’s usually my fault for not knowing that i couldn’t do a second jump at that time and yet when the same situation happened earlier i could. Mario Kart also really annoys me with it’s constant battering of blue and red shells. Of course, it doesn’t annoy you too much when it’s another human doing it to you, but when it’s a computer you feel that the game is cheating you in some way.

I tend to blame it on the controls. When i get hit in Smash Bros ‘Ah, ‘cum-on! i Dodged!’. When i just died ‘I swear i jumped!’. When i fall off in Mario Kart ‘I didn’t do that!’. It’s all annoying when it’s just you on your own, but as soon as you get your friends round all the anger disappears. I have no idea why friends tends to make anger disappear, it must just be because you know them.

Just remember that when you start getting angry just remember: don’t get angry, get friendly!
