In retrospect, maybe GameFly was a bad idea, since it there's no cost to me letting just any old game into my house, no matter how terrible.

Take Viva Pinata, for example. You spend hours watching un-cancellable, saccharine cut scenes in which hundreds of tiny paper animals move into your garden and try to eat each other. In order to make sure that this happens, you have to clean up trash, dig holes, water plants, and buy gardening supplies. After a while, the animals get sick and die.

At least I get paid to do my real job.

(If you want to advance to the next level and get the shovel upgrade, well then my friend you need a fox. But you can't get a fox until you've given it a chicken to kill. How do you get a chicken? Well you have to buy it at the store. It costs over a thousand dollars to buy a chicken.)
