The earth was without form, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And God said, \u201cLet there be Sonic the Hedgehog.\u201d And there was Sonic the Hedgehog. God saw Sonic the Hedgehog, and it was good. He totally loved it so much that he played it all night. Thus there was night. Morning followed. The first day.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8230;On the fourth day, God invited his friend over. His friend played a little, but said it was stupid. Super Nintendo was better, he said. And TurboGrafix 16 was better cuz it had Bonk, he said. And NeoGeo was coming out and even though it cost $600 it had totally radical graphics and it was better too, he said. God\u2019s friend was being an idiot. God made his friend into a tree and thus there were flowering plants. Super Nintendo was for babies. The fourth day.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">So there you are.
