If you could write a letter to yourself in the past...

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

Dear Me of the past, circa 2004.
Do not sell your PSone, even though the PS2 seems so cool. Instead, keep it, and instead of buying a PS2, get an Xbox. If you do get a PS2, don't sell it to your little brother to help get a 360 when it comes out. You will definitely regret it, especially once you start missing MGS2, and you'll end up having to buy it back and rebuilding your collection. Except this time you'll have to buy scratched up used copies at Gamestop instead of new copies at Walmart. Also, take better care of your PC games. And PLEASE start reading reviews online before you buy games, that way you'll end up with a lot less junk. Oh, and stop being so obnoxious, it makes for embarrasing memories.

From the you of the FUTURE!!!

I'd tell myself to stop throwing away cardboard boxes. That's about the only thing I regret - how all my SNES games are just carts with the exception of TMNT: Tournament Fighters.

Also, make sure I never lose Super Mario RPG.

Dear 90's Flak Beard,

When something called the "internet" finds it's way into modern day culture, avoid it all costs. It's collective cynicism will infect you and crush any dreams you may have had.

Sincerely,

Flak Beard's Shell of His Former Self


P.S. Japan is cool.

Dear Merz,

I think you should sniff less cocaine.

Ciao!

Dear 13 year old me,

Shave the mustache. NOW. It may be cool to know that you got pubes before everybody else, but that shit just looks stupid. (The mustache, not the pubes, dumbass. And quit laughing because I said the word "pubes".)

Also, don't worry about the 18 year old gangsta kids (in 7th grade) who jump on you and your friends and dry hump you in the locker room. Just remember to laugh to yourself when they call you "fags", because most of those guys end up getting locked up and are paying off a little karmic debt.

And don't let those guys skew your view of their race. Your hometown's a fucked up place, and soon you're gonna realize that.

Oh, and one more thing: Try to be a little nicer to your little brother.
