" I thought Sonic was pretty cool as a kid. Then I saw his cartoon and learned that he was a cocky, chilli dog eating douche. Being a mild mannered flat footed vegetarian I didn't find him very likable. Now as an adult I have gone back and played the games and learned that Mario won there little war for a reason.
