So, I did it. I gave in and spent the whopping $3.99 to play tetris on my phone. It's more than nostalgia that convinced me this purchase was neccesary. If it were just about satisfying some kind of nostalgic longing, my house would be full of trolls and I would be lifting every rock in my path to look for newts and earth worms. I think there's more to it. Tetris has something special, something savvy, even. The multi colored falling blocks of different shapes, so sharp and clean. The theme song, sexy and catchy. The flying satellite that pops up on the screen when you get more than 100,000 points (only the privileged can appreciate). It's just something I can't put my finger on: something beautiful.
So you can imagine my excitement when I discovered this necklace--now, I can not only play tetris, eat, sleep and BREATH tetris, but, now, I can WEAR tetris as well. Geeky? No. Cool has just reached new heights.
