The most gaming your fish has ever done is swimming real quick through the bubble blaster, maybe even being lucky enough to watch you slave away at Zelda for hours on end. If I was a fish, I might ...

My only question is — when the hell did Jared from Subway start building LEGO sculptures? Pretty impressive work, even if Yoshi’s nose is large enough to swallow a medium sized planet.
