"I'd love to live inside your head"

No you wouldn't, seriously... Inside my brain there's a beautiful meadow, it's all whimsical and shit ya know real fairytale stuff and nothing can hurt you in a fairytale right? Wrong. Under this gorgeous field is an infinite number of landmines and you have no idea where any of them are.

Why not just stand in the single patch of grass you spawned on? Because if you do nothing for too long you die that's why, so you gotta move forward, good job you spawned with the immune to landmines ability isn't it?

Again no. While you can't actually be killed by one it will render your avatar completely frozen for an undetermined amount of time, okay that's not too bad... Wrong Again! Remember if you do nothing for too long you die? Yeah that's also an undetermined amount of time too, so you spend the whole time you're frozen convinced if it lasts a second more you'll die.

Now what happens if you somehow make it across the field? Well then it's great there's loads of other worlds for you to explore behind an infinite amount of doors. Some you can stay inside for an hour, some a week, and a few give you a few months break from the minefield meadow. But there a some doors that will just teleport you straight back to the middle of the field, and even worse sometimes it's the doors to your favourite worlds.

Yeah my head isn't a fairytale landscape of whimsy at all, it's a majestic minefield meadow surrounded by hundreds of thousands of millions of doors that keep you alive by being opened but at any point any of the doors could send you back into the minefield. Sometimes it rains, sometimes it snows and sometimes the sun shines deliciously with a calming breeze almost convincing you that the beautiful meadow surrounding you on all sides is nothing but innocence and whimsy, a paradise without pain, suffering or hardships.

Oh and all your actions inside both the minefield meadow and the many worlds you explore have consequences on those you love and care about, your friends, your family, your colleagues and even total strangers but I won't get into those.

Me: Standing at my backyard door

A fully grown (like almost 30 year old) adult: "I don't think that was a completely safe thing to do..." "...but YOLO-i guess..."

Me: wtf?

You know, I hate me. But I love me back ...
