Chapter 4- WOULD YOU LIKE TO CONTINUE?

  Before

  I died.

  WOULD YOU LIKE TO CONTINUE? the game asked on screen.

  Sometimes you py the oldies. You py for nostalgia. You py to enjoy something simpler.

  For a guy like me, for whatever reason, this hasn’t worked on his streaming channel. Not yet at least, but there’s a chance. After all, there are these two guys pying all these SNES games on their channel and it’s making enough for them to live comfortably. But these games were pretty damn hard. Honestly, the ones from the 90’s are practically impossible without cheat codes.

  Christopher does not do cheat codes.

  Would I like to continue?

  “Nah,” I told the game, but let the timer run out on the screen. I didn’t have the energy to deal with this today. I didn’t have the energy to deal with a lot of things tely.

  “You’re terrible at this,” someone commented on the stream.

  “You know it,” I told him, but the commenter was already gone, bringing my viewers down to zero.

  Terrible at this game? Terrible at streaming? Terrible at life? Maybe some combination of two, or maybe all three.

  I switched the stream off, got my broken ass up off the couch slowly, and made my way over to the door.

  This is Christopher’s hobby failing to generate any additional income.
