Matt = Extra buddy

“THIS ISN’T ART!” Ted shouts out for everyone to hear as we watch this absurd movie that Riley wanted to show us. Laughter follows after Ted’s critique. Personally I don’t get what is going on here. So far we’ve seen a man in a rabbit suit smoking while crouched down on an overpass bridge while an old lady sings a folk song, and then these kids are trying to work out in someone’s basement while their mom comes down and starts to sing to them about how a tornado killed the people that used to live in that house all while she is wearing an eye patch, and then there is random footage of house cats…yeah I have no idea what is going on.
          “This movie makes me want to kill myself,” Matt says in a mild manner.
          “KILL YOURSELF THEN!” Riley blurts out to Matt very much peeved. Some are laughing in the room. “SHUT UP! I can’t hear it!” Someone else calls out.
          “There’s nothing to hear,” Another says followed by some snickering.
          “OK, that’s it. Let’s go back to Halo, c’mon. My house, my rules.” Josh says as gets up about to turn it off.
          “HEY! It’s almost over!” Riley says sharply while folding his arms.
          “Over? Nobody gets this movie but you.” Josh says as he hits the eject button followed by the lights coming back on.
          “I’ll fight you for it,” Riley stands up now.
          “Dude, hands down you know I can kick your ass. C’mon let’s just play some Halo,” Josh says with a reasoning tone. Riley disregards by trying to lean into him which of course is never a good thing, Josh is pretty built on top of being over six foot. Plus, he has Irish blood. He can definitely throw a mean left hook, but luckily for Riley's sake, he is really level headed.
          “C’mon Riley! Don’t start what you can’t finish!” Charlie shouts out. Riley is in a hold by Josh. They at first block the TV then work their way over to the side of the room with grunts and wheezing. Meanwhile, I lean in to turn on the machine and uncoil the controllers and the rest of us begin the game. Some playing start to lean in abruptly as if trying to dodge other characters in the game.
          “YOU’RE AN IDIOT!” Shouts Carl
          “You’re the one who died,” Charlie laughs at him.
          “Hey did a Mark get a new motorcycle?” Someone asks.
          “What do you need that for when a normal bike will do?” Jake asks
          “Well it’s not that new,” I clarify then continue, “You have to kickstart it, that’s cool I guess,” Music comes on in the background.
          “Story of the Year! I love these guys! WHOA IN THE SHADOWS…”
More grunting continues with the lights flashing as a lamp gets kicked over.

          “C’mon Josh! Just knock him out already!” Charlie yells as she dies in the game.
