The title of this video — which I got tipped to from the Twitter feed of Gawker colleague Adrian Chen — led me to believe it’d be focused on the pot-smoking antics of someone playing video games. There’s no marijuana in evidence but the proceedings are still pretty loopy.
Sure, it looks like nothing so much as some improv while playing Super Mario World but the randomness of it all is what makes me laugh. I guffawed at the “Maaaario” bit because I grew up on Long Island and the affectionate humming along is something we’ve all probably done while playing along to our favourite games.
