You know those side scrollers where the side keeps scrolling and if you stop running for too long you die?
Yeah, that.

My life is very much like a point and click adventure game especially Discworld.

Full of humour

Aimlessly wondering around with no idea what I am doing or where I am going.

Full of illogical puzzles and situations

Trying random things in the hope it will work

Having repeated pointless conversations with people.

And trying to always keep one step ahead of the grim reaper.

Ima throw in horror/survival/strategy.

Life is horrible, we gotta do what we can to survive and pretty strategically aswell with too many side quests distracting you from the greater goal.

Sad as it might sound, the best video game description of my life is that tetris joke

Your failures stack up, whereas your achievements disappear.

Job and daughter ensure challenges a are being thrown my way to, but but unlike an rpg where you get rewarded for doing good, the only reward is more work, and what you've done gets neglected because everyone else is doing those things as well.

    I know the pricing of electronics nowadays isn't "how much it actually costs" but "how much we can get away with", but putting up a poll is just cynical.
