One of my favorite websites is the endlessly entertaining TV Tropes, a wiki that curates various genre conventions, cliches, and idioms that pop up across all forms of media, with scads of examples for each featured subject. One of TV Tropes' pages is called "Nintendo Hard." To quote: "Back in the '80s, video games didn't have the advanced storylines of today; Excuse Plots were the norm. So much of the feeling of accomplishment one could derive was from overcoming the insane difficulty that the games provided, if only so one could brag to one's friends. Plethoras of enemies and impossible jumps were not just the name of the game, they were the game. These games weren't just hard; they were Nintendo Hard!"

It's 1:30 AM, early on a Sunday morning. The air is still, and I'm riding a giant beach ball. Well, riding is a bit generous; I sat on the ball, and it tipped over. If I could see under the table that's in front of me, it wouldn't surprise me if wads of virtual gum were stuck there. The only reason I'm here at all is because I've been playing Second Life for a month -- I'm starved for something resembling human interaction from it, and a girl with a tail wearing an altered white flower-girl dress with a pink-bunny doll strapped to it told me to do this.
