I HATE YOU, PETER CREATED BY ACTIVISION THAT COMES WITH A NOVELTY GUITAR CONTROLLER

So, I just bought you, Peter, about a week ago and I'm addicted. I play you in the morning, I play you at night. I play you in my sleep. My fingers are mashing out fake chords from you right now. I'm not very good at you, but I'm obsessed with you. Damn you Activision. My fingers hurt. I'm losing sleep. I'm missing work. A lot of work. I hear your songs in my head. In fact I'm typing this to the beat of your latest song, Peter, that I can't seem to beat on "Expert." I need help. I was sitting at the bar with a girl the other night and a song came on and I was like "I know how to play this," ... on Peter III. Then she came over the my house and broke my lawn chair. Long story.

Also, I already know the entire soundtrack to you, Peter, and even though you already cost me like $70 bucks for you plus a novelty Fender-shaped controller, I have to buy more songs to download. And I'll definitely have to buy Peter II. and Peter III. and probably Peter IV, when it comes out. I can play you accoustically. Late at night, when my roommates are trying to sleep, I have to turn the volume down and all I hear are the clicking noises of your multicolored buttons. I hear it now.

Clickclickclick. Click Click. Click Click. Clickclickclick click click clickclickclick clickclick. I LOVE that song, which I think is by Black Sabbath. But I can't seem to master the bridge to My Name is Jonas. I guess I just need to practice more.

I hate you, Peter. I just want my life back.
