Realistic Mario: Dinosaurs Aren’t Good Friends
 |
I’ve been enjoying Pete Holmes’ “Realistic Mario” skits, that show how Mario by any actual metric would by now have sustained multiple concussions and drowned. But only this one amused me so much that I had to give it its own post, especially since it has a nice little tie-in to Godzilla. It shows the pitfalls of trying to befriend an actual dinosaur of Yoshi’s size. (“Realistic” is relative, though, as you’ll see at the end.)
Yes, it’s completely stupid, but in a great way.
