This is what my video game birthday present was:

Yup that's right...my parents SOMEHOW randomly decided to buy me Monster Hunter for the Wii as my birthday gift.

I want to give a little insight in why this is one of the greatest unintentionally hilarious gifts ever. When I asked my mother why she bought this her exact words were "I hear you like anime, so we got you this Japanese video game." That and when she inquired which video games I may want as a gift I said Bioshock Infinite was a solid game that I'd like to play.

Now I didn't DEMAND Bioshock, but I still have no idea how my parents got to Monster Hunter based on my enjoyment of anime alone. However when I opened the package that ominously looked like a video game box and found it to be Monster Hunter...I broke down in laughter.

It was PERFECT! At no point did I let on that I wanted to play Monster Hunter, and at no point have I ever wanted to...I mean Jesus. I don't know how or why this happening to me...but it's magical. I cannot believe any of this is happening to me.

So I guess I have to play Monster Hunter, eh?
