Livejournal are having a comeback?
So today was sweltering hot and I almost died during lacrosse practice from doing roughly 52 one-on-ones. But that's not very interesting.
Anyways, yesterday I learned something while at the boardwalk for 10 hours. And that is of course that you can find some of the most depressing people on earth in a boardwalk arcade. During our time there I managed to see at least 25 people with a novelty Disney shirt or a shirt with a picture of cats on it. Also more than half of the people there were overweight. How could I tell this you might be asking, well let me just say that there was a line for the buffet going all around the arcade. However probably the most depressing thing I saw the entire time was an old man who looked to not have much money playing a crane game. Sure that may not sound very sad, but I haven't told you that the game is rigged and he just kept playing. It's painfully obvious that no one can win when you get the crane right on that stuffed dog 5 times in a row, yet the crane is too weak to hold on to it. But for some reason this guy thought it was very likely that he would win, and I just didn't have the heart to tell him that he was being stupid.
