    That would have been an improvement. When we did finally get a second NES game, the family discussion went something like this:

    1. Me: “The Legend of Zelda is supposed to be really, really good.”
    2. Mother’s live-in manchild boyfriend: “I LIKE RACE CARS!”
    3. Mom: “It should be TWO PLAYER. Is LEGEND ZELDAR TWO PLAYER?”

    A couple of weeks go by, and my mom comes home with a game. She says it’s two player (it’s not), it has RACE CARS, and she can’t remember the name but it starts with an “R.” I’d been doing my research up to this point, and thought maybe it was Rad Racer, which was supposed to be all right if you’re into that sort of thing.

    Nope. RC Pro-Am. Manchild boyfriend played it twice, got frustrated at the fifth or sixth level, complained that the yellow car cheats, and never touched it again. Mom tried it once, couldn’t figure out the controls, and declared that she didn’t like Nintendo games. I beat my head against it for a few weeks during summer vacation and never made it past something like the 15th or 16th track because of how badly the difficulty ramps up after that. (And yes, the yellow car does cheat; it had glitched physics that allowed it to lap you multiple times on some tracks.) It was one of those games that Rare published while they were on their “punish the untermenschen swine for not having perfect twitch reflexes” shit, not unlike the vehicle stages in Battletoads.

    Suffice it to say that I have hangups.

    CW for possible transphobic bullshit in the sidebar recs; they’re clearly trying to pull a both-sides here

    Edit: OP left off the product description, which is possibly the best part. fellow-kids

    So, I am wearing something new everyday. I feel fresh and exiting. Also don’t forget the Original I Know An Unsucked Dick Hate To See Me Coming Shirt so you should to go to store and get this messages and drawing on T-shirts. That’s made it special. If you want to wear a long t-shirt in a stylish way, pair it with leggings or skinny jeans. You can also knot the t-shirt at the waist or wear it off-the-shoulder for a more trend-forward look. Er…well, this American does. I wear T-shirts frequently, because they’re comfortable. They’re very commonly worn in the US. I expect most Americans would have reason to refer to them at some point, even if they don’t wear T-shirts themselves. To me, San Francisco based designers Nice Collective make some of the best, interesting and at times innovative t shirt styles in fashion today.
