NYC Student (20 years old), she/her

"I was in an Uber heading to the airport when I got the most sudden, intense stomach pain of my life. I tell the driver to pull over and get out of the car. I went to 3 stores and not a single one let me use the bathroom. It’s late at night so any publicly available bathroom I knew of anywhere nearby was closed.


I run into a Duane Reade in tears and ask if they have a bathroom. The guy working in the store says “sorry, for employees only” and my

heart sank. I thought I was going to have an accident. He must have seen how devastated I was because he then told me I could use the employee restroom. I couldn’t stop thanking him.


I just remember thinking that if I wasn’t a 20 year old white girl with nice clothes that he might not have treated me with the same kindness. I think about the shame I felt when I realized I may have an accident in public and that shouldn’t happen to anyone."

Funny how the offline dino runner became such a classic over the years. What started as a simple way to pass the time without an internet connection has turned into a surprisingly addictive browser game. The controls are easy to learn, but chasing a higher score can keep you playing much longer than expected. Give this Chrome Dino Game a try here: https://dino-chrome.com

That sounds like quite the ordeal! I can imagine how frustrating that must have been. It's good you made it through okay. Speaking of tough situations, I've found say the word on beat game really helps with quick thinking and reflexes - it's a fun way to stay sharp!

That twist gives Wacky Steps its personality. The character does not feel stable or heroic. It feels awkward, vulnerable, and a little ridiculous, which is exactly why the game is memorable. You are not trying to perform flashy combos or chase complicated objectives. You are simply trying not to fall over, and that simple goal becomes surprisingly entertaining.
