My manager has made me pitch in Wii Sports baseball two nights in a row. I’ve thrown two no-hitters in a row, but I have a slightly pulled groin muscle from pitching. I’ve heard rumor that some people can pitch sitting down, but where is the fun in that?
On a rating scale where 1000 is pro, I’m a 322. If I keep going, I might make The Show in another 10 games or so.
You pulled a muscle. Playing a video game.
I pulled a muscle WINNING TWO video games. Shesh. How dumb do you think I am?
My coworkers enjoyed this story. Stitches has a Wii game and empathizes; he almost pulled a muscle demonstrating how these things happen. JP chimed in that there’s a whole Wii wing at the hospital now.
wow. mr riordan playing video games. perhaps the influence of me, josh, and steve??
No, actually, I don’t think that’s weak at all. If someone offers you food, it’s not the most polite thing in the world to refuse your host’s generosity with a pretentious nod and a lofty, “No, thank you. I’m a VEGETARIAN.” Then, not only do you look snobbish, but you’ve put your host in the awkward position of guilt.
…I was going to go for that compromise myself.
