SELECT YOUR DESTINY BOOK #9 - HAUNTED MANSION MADNESS!

Decades from now, you'll look back on this moment from your bed in a poorly funded old age home and wonder what might have happened if you'd gone to the reading of your great Uncle's will.

Ah yes, the 'Golden Years'

Maybe something interesting would have happened instead of the colorless, drab, tepid existence you slouched through until finally landing in this bed, delusional, incontinent, covered with bed sores, and more than anything else, finally dying of boredom.

Never took a chance, never went out on a limb, never sowed a single wild oat, never even kissed a girl, a whole life lived doing absolutely nothing at all. All the air you ever breathed could have been breathed by somebody who did something with their lives, but no, you selfishly sucked it into your completely uninteresting lungs, breath after pointless breath.

Maybe the afterlife will have something to offer you think as you die, not even knowing the answer is no, that heaven and hell are for people who did something good or bad in their lives and all you did was take up space, and you were pretty lackluster doing even that.

START AGAIN, AND THIS TIME FOR GOD'S SAKE, DON'T PICK SUCH AN OBVIOUSLY WRONG CHOICE!

If I sleep in the nude, why am I wearing the same clothes I "rolled out of bed with in the morning"?

"Doctor says he's got the diabetes, says that makes him hyperglycemic. Know what that is? Means he's got to get a lot of sugar in him all the time, or he'll get all listless and moody!"
One of the best Destiny Books so far.

Of course there's also the issue of why I have toiletries when I didn't pack.

I'm still loving this. It doesn't need to make sense.

Two words: birthday suit.

Wait a second, when you go back to your room after killing that monster, is that ghost from the "A Christmas Carol" movie starring Albert Finney as Scrooge called "Scrooge"?
I think it was a musical. My family watches it every year.

I would like to propose that the sentence "He flails wildly about as you punch him in the hump." is one of the funniest things I've ever read. Kudos to you guys.

I really hate to be a wet blanket, but as an actual type 1 diabetic, I'd just like to point out that too much insulin is the cause of a diabetic seizure, not at all the solution. The solution to hypoglycemia (what causes a seizure) is more sugar, and the way to deal with a seizure in progress is to give the person a glucagon shot, which is quite distinctive from an insulin shot.

You know that this story is supposed to be funny, full of teh jokes, and in no way educational or based on true events, right?

I was just glad I could spell "diabetes" correctly after years of hearing those commercials with Wilford Brimley.

so, is there a good ending? I think I went through all the choices and never saw one that I would think of as a happy ending for player.
