Jason: Hey! What are you doing?! I was in the middle of a game! Paige: Oops. Sorry. I thought you were done. Jason: Done?! Couldn't you see I was just about to do battle with the red orb guardian?! I just paused it so I could get some more sugar in my bloodstream! This was going to be my 10,000 attempts! I was feeling extra-lucky! I can't believe you reset it! Paige: Who said I reset it? Jason: Then where's the red orb guardian? AAAA! You got past him?! How?! How?! What'd you do?! Paige: Well, let's see... the first time I sneezed, I think I pushed this button... or this one...

Paige outdoes Jason (again). And he did get more sugar in his bloodstream. Poor Jason!

I did that to my brother once. He flipped out.
Now he wonders why I don’t game with him.

and in other news ESPN Classic is showing Super Bowl XXXII. I predict Denver will win 31-24.
I will check back for my accolades tomorrow.

…easy to “call it” because these are all classics from Bill Amends’ vault. Jason begs and cajoles Paige for many days worth of comics to tell him how she beat the Red Orb Guardian - promises her the world. In the end, she finally tells him that she simply walked past the Red Orb Guardian without attacking him. Jason is shocked that, perhaps, this video game might be attempting to teach a moral lesson. His comment is something to the effect of “That’s absurd! What next, comic strips?!?”.

This particular strip is completely new to me. I hope that doesn’t make me a bad person.

Yay, Paige moved past that obstacle for Jason! He should thank her and get on with the rest of the level. But NOOOO, he has to get upset. Guys….

No, bluetopazcrystal,. temperamental Theorists regardless of sex. Theorists hate to admit incompetence, especially when one of my fellow Catalysts beats him or her by sheer luck.

Temperamental theorists and gamers – I want to solve the puzzles myself, not have my sister solve them for me!
