I was in my 20s, long before having children, and I was yelling at them like toddlers, too.

My friend at the time was plying and accidentally called a whole pack of blue Pikmin through a wall of fire, killing all of them, and he just paused the game and said, “I’m a bad father.”

Pikmin is a crash course in what it’s like to have dependents.
