Step 22: Be On Team Steve Weibe

So, I finally watched the movie King of Kong: A Firstful of Quarters. It was delightful. For those of you who have not seen this movie, it is a documentary about people fighting for World Records in video game scores. Not modern video games, but old arcade video games. The movie centers around the fight for the top spot of the game "Donkey Kong." A man named Billy Mitchell had held the record since he was a kid and thinks that this makes him a badass. He is actually a huge loser who sells chicken wing sauce and whose wife will be ugly no matter how tan she gets or how big he makes her breasts.

ANYWAYS, Steve Weibe is just a nice guy from Washington. He has a wife and kids, but no job. He has experienced a lot of failure in his life. Steve is just the coolest guy. He isn't a freak like the rest of the gamers. Steve has a lot of extra time on his hands and starts playing Donkey Kong. He gets good and breaks Billy's record. Billy and his people are then on a crusade to discredit Steve's score. It's an excellent movie.

If you want to be me, you must watch this movie and then swear that you will spit on Billy Mitchell's face if you ever see him. He is a jerk and a butthole.

Go Steve Weibe!
