The 1 Mr E
Banned
Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later, my xbox is in a coma-like vegetable state. The lil motor that drives the discs has finally died, (ive had this one for four years now) and now it wont play anything. Ah well, se la vi and all that. Dont really have the money to buy a new one, so i guess its time to bring out the old MASTER SYSTEM and get a new highscore on double dragon or something ( i do have some full games on my harddrive though).
On a side note, i was so angry that it died i grabbed my MW2 disc outta it, figured i could save it or it might get stuck or something, saw that the xbox gouged a trench in the disc like the panama canal got more irritated, aimed for an open window and threw that damn thing like a ninja star. Maybe should thought that one through a little better because it went like this;
" What the hells wrong lil xbox buddy?" i asked.
"im not feeling so well Mr E, all these dang glitchers and modders are makiing me sick" it replied.
" i understand you on that one bro, however lets just try and see if maybe we can find a game without them, if we do, would that make you feel better"
"we can try, for you Mr E, we can try"
"ok lets see"
Dashboard ok, login ok, live connected, starting disc reading, reading, reading, disc error, error, error, error.
"oh no," i gasped and quickly removed the disc to make sure it wasnt dirty. Put it back in, reading, reading, brrrt, zeeet, heeerrnrn. But alas, not RROD, just coma.
"NOOOO" I cried, not now, not ever, but wait! all is not lost, I ejected the disc, and NOOOOOOOO, pretty multiple little perfect circular scratches in it, SONOFA .
Hand,
Disc,
Open window,
Energy surge,
Throw.
Made ense to me.
It sailed beautifully through the air like a small thin alien ship, hurtling towards the window and the creek trial beyond. However something happened, a small gust of wind coming in or divine ironic intervention, it changed its course and embedded itself into the sheetrock of the wall.
I sat stunned and amazed.
I think ill leave it there in the wall to remind me that sometimes things just happen, all we can do is pick ourselves back up and continue on. (or maybe sara will see it when she gets home and wonder WTF happened)
Farewell xbox, we had good times.
Funeral services will be held in my home at 9 PM PST.
Good thing i had purchased an extended warranty, otherwise mighta ruined my day.
