The self is continually re-authored until fiction becomes identity and identity becomes brand.

“I got stuck on nearly every level for hours, and it made me realize how boomers had to live back then. They had to get a job (sometimes as a courier), own a home, and get around without Siri.”

“And as a courier, a boomer wouldn’t even have had a GPS telling them ‘turn left’ or ‘turn right’. They had to listen to themselves and do that [expletive] manually.”

“Sometimes figuring out where you were headed felt like walking in circles endlessly with no meaningful progress to show for it. Nowadays we have all sorts of objective markers and robots telling us where to go, and quest objectives and project managers telling us what to do.”

“Our generation just gets that stuff for free — we collect unemployment and apartment complex employees mow our lawns for us. Gone are the days of real work and home ownership.”

“Thank gosh,” he said, “I’m sorry to every boomer I ever doubted.”

“Gamers have been asking us, ‘Why can’t we pay more for this?’ for ages, so we decided to open up the system and allow customers to pay as much as they would like” Clive Chesterton told journalists, following the report.

“We had been increasing the price of our Live Services for years to keep up with demand — Xbox Game Pass Ultimate already exceeds what we believed any responsible consumer would willingly pay at $22.99 monthly, but our customers kept telling us ‘We want to pay more!’ So we decided to open our system up to allow gratuity payments.”

The report indicates that basic gratuity payments are set to begin at 20%.

Post-publication update: Major grocery retailers, including those utilizing self-checkout, are reportedly monitoring Microsoft’s gratuity rollout. Some have begun trialing optional gratuity and round-up prompts in select locations.

A landmark Mideastern study indicates participation in high-level World of Warcraft raiding is not predictive of measurable life outcomes, including income, well-being, or life satisfaction.

“We found no correlation between participation in top-tier World of Warcraft raiding guilds and any measurable life metrics,” Anna Linderstrum remarked. “Even at top-tier levels of play, raiding appears to have no detectable effect on outcomes outside of World of Warcraft.”

Chris Thompson explained that researchers expected at least some level of financial impact. “We assumed that there would be a relationship, given the cost of subscriptions, expansions, and microtransactions. These often exceed 180 USD, plus a lengthy time investment. No such relationship emerged in the data.”

Oliver Randolf added: “We all expected to find something . . . Even buying additional in-game currency (gold) with USD is always offset by other factors.”

After review, Dr. Gyges theorized: “It’s almost as if an invisible hand offsets every dollar and hour invested into World of Warcraft . . . How could there be no effect?”

Verdict: 10/10

Industry leaders stressed the importance of solidarity with Nintendo in response to unreasonable customer affordability metrics.

“. . . Customer behavior regarding what they can or cannot afford has monopolized entertainment and oil prices for too long,” said Chess Custardly at a press briefing earlier this afternoon.

So you’re an adult who bought a Nintendo Switch 2 (Yikes!) and you are tired of children’s games like Splatoon 2, Super Mario Odyssey, and Hogwarts Legacy. Here are the top 5 Nintendo Switch 2 games for adults.

5. Resident Evil 4

The controls are too tense for modern children because you cannot run and shoot at the same time.

4. MudRunner - American Wilds

Kids these days weren’t forced to drive manual transmission tractors on the farm. This is a game for adults because adults can drive stick.

3. Diablo II: Resurrected - Infernal Addition

Adults learned how to add things together in the Horadric Cube when they were children. Today’s generation never had to memorize this kind of thing.

2. No Thing

A game set in 1994, a time only adults can remember. No Thing isn’t as hard as life was back then, but younger generations will still struggle because they’ve been given everything for free.

1. Astro Bears

Astro Bears is an offline multiplayer snake game. It is an adult multiplayer game because adults can drive to their friends’ houses to play it. Children can’t do that, which is why this isn’t a children’s game.
