During the cutscene of meeting FLUDD at the start of Super Mario Sunshine, a brief shot from FLUDD’s point of view appears, filled with various writing on the sides of the screen. Due to the low resolution of the movie file that contains the cutscene, it is not possible to see the Japanese characters clearly; however, experts who have analyzed the low-quality text came to the conclusion that the block of text in the center of the left side the screen is a Mario character profile, and most likely reads (translated from Japanese):
Mario of the Mushroom Kingdom
Nemesis: Bowser
Occupation: Plumber
Favorite food: Spaghetti
Loves which person: Secret
Dislikes: Poison Mushroom
Body weight: Secret
Height: Unknown
Chromosome number: Unknown
Father’s name: Unknown
Mother’s name: Unknown

So there’s this artist, Alex Schaefer, who makes a bunch of paintings of Chase Bank burning.
There’s just
so many of these
and I think it’s incredibly funny but
I just read this bit from the artist and
This is a "plein air" painting which means I set up my easel right across the street of this Chase bank in my city and painted it like it had caught fire. The police questioned me on the spot. Three weeks later Homeland Security was knocking on the door to my home. The question they kept asking me was "Do you hate these banks?" I can honestly say yes.
And I just think this is the greatest artist statement I’ve ever read.
