I am currently listening to John Lennon sing "Stand by Me." I declare this infinitely derivative side-scrolling to be the last Flash Game that I ever play. I've been doing this crap for years, and have finally realized that futility of trying to maintain this potential-draining lifestyle any longer. It's been a great run, Newgrounds, and I may miss you at some point, but it's all for the best.
Oh, and stop making games about samurais. They weren't that cool; they became those horrible Yakuza.

I love how you skewer Stephanie Meyer's writing style throughout this spoof.
Quick English lesson, boys and girls- YOU DON'T NEED TO FOLLOW EVERY SINGLE NOUN WITH AND ADJECTIVE, OR EVERY VERB WITH AN ADVERB.
Oh, and the rest of it was funny, too. :P
Also, it doesn't matter what myths are true about vampires or not because they AREN'T REAL. Not even those psi-vamps. "Oh, I can tell what other people are feeling! I must be a vampire!" No, seriously, who came up with that crap? How does that even make sense!? You wanna talk about disregarding vampire lore...
That, my friend, is more F-bombed up than a sparkly person.

The voice acting, music and artwork were stellar.
I don't mean to be a spoilsport, but if the person was deaf, why was he able to speak so clearly?
Also, I feel like the "flash cards" thing took the punchline further than it was able to go. It's like having sex- any "movement" immediately after the "climax" is kind of "painful". We've already been told that this man is deaf (whether we believe him or not)- belaboring the point adds nothing to the funny.
Author's Response:
I think you read too much into it...
But while we're on the subject, there are some deaf people who can speak quite clearly, usually the ones who became deaf later on in life.
By the time you're an adult, speech is subconscious. It comes so naturally that even when you don't hear yourself you can almost know what you sound like and speak clearly.
Anyway, too each his own. Thanks for the review.

The out of tune piano really emphasizes a drunken stagger, as do the slight "hiccups" in the string section rythym. A nice piece, which suits "How I Buy Petrol?" to a T. Great job!
