Just lay on the guilt
Soggy Toast | 7:06 PM on 04.24.2008 7 comments


So I was looking through an old Robocop comic and what did I find? An ad for Snake's Revenge and Super C that makes you feel nothing less than guilty.

As you can see from just the tag line, if YOU lose we are screwed. And then it goes on to say that, "civilization will cease to exist. And you'll have no one to blame but yourself". Well thats just great, hows that supposed to make people who suck at games feel? What if, for instance, there are these two great friends and they decide to build a tree house together. Now what if one of the friends decides to play one of the games based on the ad he saw, fails miserably, becomes increasingly depressed, and commits suicide. So heres the other one, friendless, wracked with grief, and the owner of an empty tree house. Fast-forward to present. We now see the same friend grownup, friendless, and sitting alone in the same tree house. He never got any other friends and instead of laughing at jokes in podcasts he has to laugh with them because he is so lonely.
Now you can see how one advertisement can ruin a whole person's life. Or I may be dramatizing the whole thing.

Anyway I guess what I'm trying to get across is that Robocop is awesome.
