So. Fucked. Up.





I would like to play that video game that you mentioned, though. As a teenager I spent a lot of time at the arcade playing Street Fighter II. I'm sure this is a lot less complicated (like, I bet it's point and click v actually having to use button combination to do the moves) because it's a pc game (and possibly because it's for the ladies and we are too stupid to operate a game controller?) but it could be fun.

The "hey baby" game is pretty rudimentary- you can just click on the link above to play it, it's free. Yay Street Fighter! Tekken is good- I just got one of the newer ones for my PS2. The murderous schoolgirl characters are my fave, natch. (Did I just say "natch"?)

And OMG about the cigs !!!!!!! Holy shit.
