On a Christmas in the early 2000s, I received my Game Boy Advance SP. A lit candle on my grandmother's table fell over starting a small fire on the tablecloth. My mother quickly grabbed the closest thing to stamp out the fire, which happened to be my charging Game Boy. The fire was put out, and the only lasting mark on my Game Boy was that the sticker that contained the copyright and safety information was slightly discolored.
My point being is that I am slightly disappointed that an impervious set of armor hewn from many Game Boys was not an item discussed in this video.

My biggest problem with this guide is that, if you had fell into the river Styx as a child a god would have saved you. So your current situation would obviously be a trial of some sort or a -prank- from Hera for being one of Zeus' umpteen illegitimate children. Yet you provide no aid in turning the device into a weapon to actually aid your familiar, nor do you mention the proper method of game-boy sacrifice to placate Hera.

Whilst I absolutely support and encourage anyone seeking therapy for whatever reason they may wish to seek it, Especially if you do not have access to a broad community of support. I am totally not down with the everyone must go to therapy vibes. We need to be smarter than this when it comes to mental health.

Jenna. This is so good. This is perfect. It's such a wild series of new facts, wrapped in a brilliantly ridiculous concept and presented with precision-strike dry humor. I can't believe you knew exactly my sewing machine response!

Just when I thought I knew Gameboy stuff, Jenna blows my mind. Hello, doctor? Yeah I'm going to need six more weeks; I just found out there are way more Gameboy accessories. But good news, one of them you might be interested in.

GOD i remember when those platform shoes came out. i think this means i'm in the exact age range of people who would be carrying old gameboy accessories with them when they travel (and are subsequently stranded.

So your dad gave you a gameboy color for your birthday and you're flying back to your mom's when the pilot has a heart attack and now you're stranded near a lake with nothing but gbc peripherals

Kudos for the therapy mention. For real, it helps. Even if you don-t think you need help, proper therapy helps set things straight you might not have even thought were crooked.

Your -Flashlights- didn't arrive until after the -Deluxe Flashlights- came first, then your -Mecha Suits- the simplistic mini light wasn't around for earlier gamers. ;)

From this list I only have the light, but it DOES come with a magnifying lens. I've also got the extra long game link cable. What would you say my chances are?

I can personally confirm that the gameboy sewing machine exists and that it doesn't take normal sized spools and is terrible at button holes.

Huh, maybe I should get a gameboy just to check those peripherals out. Maybe even try writing a custom cart or something, I don't know.

I feel like, this wasn't as good a video as many by polygon. It feels very forced. Still enjoyed, but could of been more entertaining
