Soundtrack to the most tragic character I never made up on purpose

He is alone in a watchtower. Fog whistling in. Thoughts of big-bearded women in his head, gypsies dancing. Deep circles under his eyes, sunken, cigar smoke. A goatee like a thicket of ants. His wife has left him, he loves his kids on auto-pilot, he taught them to love God, he is sexually distraught for a mechanic. He's exploding cigarettes. Jameson forgot the egg nog. Greasy-kneed cargo pants. White and sad with a twelve-pack at his sneakers. There are no Christmas lights here, it's black. Jaundice headache starving. Blasting broken blues music and head banging weepily to it, long blonde slithers up and down. Bony shoulders. He's there overnight and his t-shirt is stained.

Hemingway wrote, "It is awfully easy to be hard-boiled about everything in the daytime, but at night it is another thing."

I will be honest

I watched this whole thing. All 21 minutes. Even through the theme song. It's unbearable, and this guy is never getting laid. He was pretty upset by the graphics in the 1980s.

However... biblical video games are fantastic. Biblical Candy Land, Noah first-person slingshooting cattle to death, Mother Mary carrying towers of soldiers on her head, Mother Mary throwing baby Moses in the water, true or false quizzes without questions...
