Does it ever amuse the heck out of you when kids call looking for video game guides? I have a young one on the phone right now, and I can actually hear the Megaman cartoon playing in the background, well..at least I could until he put me on hold...and he was asking me about all these video game guides. Frankly, as a parent (I mean, I'm not a parent, but if I were), there's no way I'd let my kid have a fifty dollar game and then let him buy a twenty-five dollar game guide to get through it faster. If I had to suffer the personal hell of not getting past a Sonic the Hedgehog level on a handheld back in junior high, there's no reason you can't puzzle things out by asking a few friends, or turning to the internet.

Also, why should you, young impestuous prepubescent voiced grasshopper, "have a lot on your mind right now" and not be able to remember the umpteenth glorified product placement book you were looking for? What's happening to the kids these days?
