βOh, itβs monster. Nyah! Oh, yeah!β
Oh, Steve.
Iβve been having a pretty crap day up until βSteveβ came along (thanks to our beloved Aaron Linde). Iβm behind schedule, stressed out, and getting nowhere with work today. But then this probably intoxicated Japanese man narrated his playthrough of Game Boy classic Mario Land on Japanese video site Nico Nico Douga, which has since become a hit on YouTube.
His choppy English over the three stages of Mario Land are so funny that I ended up crying from laughing. He has a lot to say, and not all of it makes sense. He gets quite passionate about βbad monstersβ that he somehow ties to breaking windows in a house. My favorite part is where an ill-timed jump ruins the payout of a coin box.
βOne coin? Facke you,β he says.
Iβm always constantly reworking my list of the top ten people Iβd love to hang out with. βSteveβ now ranks very high.
Steve, you are a bat-to boy, but youβre the best.
