A Lifetime of Button Mashing

from Nailing Jello to a Tree · host IamSQWRL

Some people collect trophies. Some people build businesses. Me? I have spent my life mastering the fine art of button mashing.From the arcade birthday parties where I ran a full-scale ticket empire to becoming a Call of Duty menace who made teenage boys rage-quit, gaming has been my longest-running commitment.In this episode, we’re covering:**🎮 The scam that was arcade prizes (5,000 tickets for a plastic slinky? Seriously??)🎮 How Tetris trained me to fit $1,000 worth of groceries into a compact car.🎮 Why my Call of Duty skills were ahead of their time—and left grown men emotionally damaged.🎮 The moment I realized I was NOT the main character—my dog, my kids, and even my gaming consoles were ahead of me.If you've ever spent just five more minutes gaming, if you've ever felt the heartbreak of a lost save file, or if your pet gets more attention than your social media posts, this one’s for you.🎧 Listen now for the nostalgia, snark, and undeniable proof that gaming has been my longest, most committed relationship.
