An excerpt from Red Delicious:

Oh how the mighty have fallen! Believe it or not, the coffee grinds in a leather glove known as “The Red Delicious Apple” was once a robust firebrand credited with reinventing the apple from mere cider-fruit into a full-fledged lunch-worthy sidepiece. It even won the Stark Brothers apple contest in 1894. Likely your great-grandma’s favorite apple, this once flavorful Prometheus has been mass-produced into desolation.

Nowadays, you can find this thick-skinned, flavorless, mealy imposter unwashed in a dirty wicker basket on the floor of a convenience store. What a sad state of affairs. It’s time to hang them up old man, your time has passed.

That's exactly what my first thought was. How many kids did you know growing up who practiced singing into their hairbrush, convinced they would be rock stars?

Beautiful! How are you keeping the critters out of those?

I'm stuck in that same kind of gaming rut, I think it's because dealing with "being an adult with responsibilities" is a lot more stress than when I first started gaming as a kid. My brain just does not want to learn a new system of rules, and I end up quitting new games halfway through the tutorial.

The couple times I've fought through that feeling, I've found a few new games I really love. So maybe it's a mindset thing. I miss the ease with which I used to lose myself in new passions.
