Seriously!?

He's about the third boss in FF IIj, and seeing how many of the enemies are a walk, I didn't think he'd be a problem.

He's a floating skull named Shrieker, and he's on fire. There really shouldn't be much of a strategy for him to employ.

My defense? Cure1. My biggest attacker (Gus) does a whopping zero damage when equipped with a Mythril Axe. It's fucking Mythril! How is this possible?

This game makes no sense and I want to die.

In the meantime, I have one week off from school, so I'm bound to have a creative thought or two at some point in the next week. Then my creativity will be summarily murdered again by MBA coursework, during which I say things like "differentiation to achieve competitive advantage" without irony, and my college English teachers scream in agony from the depths of hell. Assuming they're dead.

Boringly enough, this also makes no sense and I want to die.

I need to stop playing this game and take a walk in the worst way. Backwards. Downhill. In flip - flops.
