Stay Away From The Mushroom

When you are Mario, all you want to do is get big. You don’t want the stupid flower power to chuck fireballs, those are useless. You either want the feather to make you fly with your brand new cape, a 1up, or a mushroom. Mario looks far more handsome when he is big. When that mushroom pops out of the question mark, you couldn’t me more happy.

So what about in real life? No thank you. If there was a question mark up ahead and I knew a mushroom was awaiting, i would just ignore it. I am one of those ‘big kids’ who I don’t think will ever grow up. I was even in Toys R Us the other day and I was just as excitied as if it were my 8th birthday. Man that place has choice. Sure I don’t play with dolls anymore or anything, but if I were still at that point in my life, I would be going crazy in that store. They don’t only just have the dolls that poop or blink, now they have dolls that cry when they are hungry, walk by themselves, geeze I wouldn’t be surprised if you could buy a doll that throws spaghetti on the wall.

The point is is that if you don’t want to grow up, then you never really have to. There are plenty of things to keep you young, and no one ever told you to grow up quickly. If they did, that’s just wrong. Stay away from those mushrooms I tell ya and don’t ever let that kid inside you escape!
