Summary

You soar over a Mediterranean villa and find it so thrilling you think, "Hey, I'll build myself a new computer so this looks nicer." In the time it takes you to have this experience and this thought, a plastic robot toy built in 1985 completes Super Mario World.

As you wipe the thermal paste from your hands and start again, the robot turns off and is carried from the stage to rapturous applause.
