"Open that carton of mangoes and read me the contents."


It's always depressing when you find that something with your exact specifications has already been made, far in advance of you making it. It's sad for inventors, and for goofy people. I personally recently got ahold of a stack of MP3s of the Goon Show from the 50s, and if I were forced into writing a script for a radio show or somesuch, this is more or less exactly what I would come up with. Except my version would be noticeably less awesome.

It's sort of fascinating.

And very funny.

Its a good feeling, when it isn't overwhelmingly depressing.

Sometimes I will read about a game, and realize my extensive psychic powers have assembled a team to build and publish a game I once thought would be cool to play, if it existed. Sometimes my mind-waves even travel through time to force people to make things for me before I knew I wanted them, or before I even existed.

I usually respond by playing it. Sometimes I'm not even disappointed!
