A young man stands in a skate park. It just so happens that today is his sixteenth birthday.
He does not use pesterchum, as he has never heard of it and in fact does not exist. Nor does the reality-altering game known as Sburb. No, nothing of that sort will ever happen to this young man.
However, something of equal import will.
But for now, he is unaware of any of this; on his mind right now are only two things: the fact that later today is his driver's test, and the fact that his best friend just lost to him again.
> Enter name
Nope. Vert Wheeler has had his name for his entire life, and he's not about to change it now.
> Be Vert
You are now Vert Wheeler, surfer/skater extraordinaire and all around stereotypical south californian teenager with hair that can only be described as anime-esque. Good thing you're not into anime.
This is more-or-less based on the obscure series of movies known as Acceleracers. More About AcceleRacers
This is inspired by Iji MSPA which is in turn based off of Iji.

Below is a list of stuff I've been reading/watching off and on in my spare time. I recommend pretty much anything on this list, as long as you're interested in Let's Plays/Fancomics (I would assume an interest in Forum Adventures, if you're reading this :P). Currently Processing YouTube
SlimKirby's Let's Play Super Bomberman 3
Odinspack33's Let's Play Donkey Kong Country Returns Webcomics
Square Root Of Minus Garfield [haven't checked in a while, though]
The After Subtract [A concluded sprite comic with relatively normal Mario and Luigi; a talkative, split-personality Link (Navi included); a talkative, homicidal (when it comes to food) Kirby; a Waddle Chu; and relatively normal Sonic and Tails. It starts a bit slow but after that it stays consistently funny.] Forum Adventures

>Be incredibly stereotypical.
>Rub it in your friend's face!
As Alek Wood, a good friend of yours for some time longer than you can remember, picks himself up off the bottom of the ramp he just failed on, you, being ever the kind, considerate person you are, decide to rub it in.
Speechlog:
Vert: Bummer. Next time you want to lose to me, Alek? Try surfing; water's a lot softer.
Alek: Man, we gotta get up a team; add in ol' Sharkey, maybe that chick from Hawaii who just moved in... Surf or Skateboards; ether one! We could get sponsored!
You contemplate the idea. On one hand, it's a good concept; maybe then you'd have an actual excuse to do what you enjoy on a regular basis; on the other hand, you're not sure you like the idea of all the other people.
