🎮My Life: The Game🎮

Humans. Society, so much for notoriety 🤨

Once a lad, not sad

🎮Played with friends

So much fun when you win

A loss sometimes a little down

Too much win, remorse😅

Anxiety about doing right

Make the right move

😸Pokémon evolved –> Yugioh

All my friends played, so I did too

Gameboy and Sega evolved–>

Nintendo 64 then GameCube🎮

Looking back—tons of fun

Underneath play–animal🐒 hierarchy, rank, competition

Everyone wanted to be the best, not just Ash Ketchum

🐵Top monkeys get mates

Top gamers got nothing but glory

No way to explain in it to me then

I loved my friends🥰

We’d play the same games again and again

Very chill☃, no sin

Eventually the games came to bore😑

Play World of Warcraft 10 years more

It was a lot of fun

😐But regret spending so much time

A grind, no longer fun

Games rarely translate to real-world benefits💰

🙅🏽‍♂️No resources or status ups🔼

Rare skills: Hand eye coordination / solving problems

I’d far rather play: My Life The Game🎮

Over The Sims or Harvest Moon any day

Believe it or not, overtime, real world benefits accrue😲
