Big shoutout to davepollotart for the terrific work here. These are the kind of paintings you can stare at in peace, and for a while at that.
If you’ve ever played Super Mario World for Super Nintendo, then you know how annoying the Big Boos are.
However, after 26 years, some super Super Mario player explained how to kill them on Twitter. You just slide down the stairs and crash into them.
It’s an amazing moment watching people come together in their shared interest of defeating video game ghosts. Now, if only we as a country could come together and figure out how to defeat actual ghosts. Seriously, there are too many ghosts in this country, especially on Tinder.
Sorry.

Italians who can't pay their utility bills are getting help from an unlikely source: Super Mario.
Wearing Mario masks and blue overalls, a group of vigilante plumbers from Rome have been turning the water back on in homes after utility companies turn it off.
They are fighting for underemployed citizens' "right to water" and investigate each case before deciding to take action, according to Vocativ.
About 25 percent of homes are late on payments, and they reportedly get about 200 requests a day.
