First of all, if
you thought this was going to be a page about the
movie/TV series about the Solid Gold Dancers or
something like that, get the hell out of here so
i can tell my story.
The month was November of
1993. One cold morning, I awoke to found the new
GamePro(tm) magazine sitting in my mailbox. Of
course, GamePro was and still is a cesspool of
ignorance about the gaming world, but back when I
was 11, it was the coolest thing since Super
Mario Bros. Cereal. Anyways, I went to the ProTip
section on a whim, and I was amazed at what I saw
on page 245.
That was me! My name,
immortalized in GamePro forever. Instant
popularity, if you will. Women surrounded me,
other boys idolized me. Of course, I knew in the
back of my mind it wasn't me, it was the ProTip.
Then all of a sudden, my followers stopped, er,
following. And I was left with nothing.
So let this be a lesson to
you kids. Don't read GamePro. Oh yeah, and stay
in school and all that good stuff.
