"His People"
So I finally capitulated and took lil brother to go see "his people." By that I mean the dudes who work at our local used video gaming store. Lil brother just loves these paid-by-the-hour dudes. These guys are about 37 years old, wear old, faded black t-shirts with Pac-man iron-ons, haven't shaved or showered in days, still live in their parent's dark basement, and have played Every. Single. Solitary. Game. EVER made. So lil brother will hustle up to the counter with his baggie of dollars and change and will ask for the most obsolete game... and every time they're like, "Whoooaaaa dude! I LOVE that game. Just a minute... Hey, Gus!?! Where's that (fill in the blank game)? I KNOW we had it. YESSSSS!!! HERE IT IS DUDE! You are so lucky, man." And lil brother is TOTALLY stoked. Of course I have to ask the obligatory mom question about whether there are any naked ladies in it, and they assure me just killing and cussing which is perfectly acceptable over here at blither blather headquarters. I'm not necessarily proud of that, but lil brother's already blown my cover on that one... So hopefully this will be my last trip of the summer until lil brother's fall b-day which is around the corner. And then I can guarantee you he's gonna be begging to go visit "his people." Until then...!
