When it comes to playing side scrolling, running and jumping video games, my favourite is the Super Mario Bros. series of side scrollers.
They are fun, entertaining and will inspire a lighthearted mood in your day if you have just finished playing a rather serious RPG epic.
But sometimes when you have played one too many of these games, certain aspects of the game remain with you when you are not even close to a video game console. So I came up with a few of the ways you can tell if you have been playing too many Super Mario Bros. side scroller video games. Here they are:
Someone mentions he/she has a plumbing problem and you say without hesitation, ´call Mario.´
While perusing an article or book, you come across a question mark and you silently wonder what would happen if you were, to say, touch it.
Your cell phone rings and you get strange looks from other people in the room because the ringtone is from a Super Mario Bros. video game.
You are watching something on National Geographic or the Discovery channel, but the second you hear the word Peach or Toad, you immediately think of the Princess Mario is always trying to rescue from Bowzer´s Keep.
You spot a flower that is similar to the Fire Flower and wonder what would happen if you suddenly gained the power to throw fire balls at things if you touched the flower.
Someone mentions the word shy and you instantly think of Shy Guy.
You see a flagpole and wonder if someone could jump all the way to the top without getting hurt.
You spot a coin on the ground and wonder about how many coins Mario has accumulated over the years.
You see, hear or watch something about dinosaurs and wonder what Yoshi does when he is not in a Super Mario Bros. game.
You see a mushroom and wonder what would happen if humans could grow instantly taller or bigger just from eating one.
Those are only a few, but if you are ever in the mood to play a video game that´s fun and entertaining, give a Super Mario Bros. side scroller video game a go.
And start having fun all over again.
