While I didn't have this opinion when I was younger, as on a New Year's Eve, my dad installed a couple Mario games onto my family Wii's Wii Menu, I absolutely hate Mario. I don't know how long ago it started, but I want nothing to do with Mario. Moving on, a couple times on my church's Wii, recently, whenever I pitted myself as Sonic against the CPU as Mario, I won. Afterward, I literally said "And that just goes to show you that SEGA's better than Nintendo." Once more moving on, Mario makes me think of a YouTuber named MiniLadd, who when on GMod is almost always Mario. Once on a Halloween video of GMod, a fellow YouTuber/GModder named Vanoss was Mario and said "Hey look! I'm MiniLadd!"
Long story short, I hate Mario.
