Default Anyone feel for poor Line Rider?

I have come across the completely alterable account of Line Rider as he slides along his blank path, only blinking while facing one of the worst possible fears: eternal bordom. Here is a metafilter page on this unfortunate character:

This person is most unfortunate, and there is no better possible way to explain that than how jimmythefish did:

Line Rider is at once a model of every man, and also an individual for whom we should hold great regard. His is a fate drawn on a blank slate, sure in path but difficult in execution. His path is frought with difficult and sometimes impossible obstacles which all end, ultimately, in certain death.

Yet, alone, he faces these tasks head on without complaint or objection. He merely blinks at such fatally dire consequences as pixel-crushing jump, staggering boredom (should he stall on course) and infinite chasm. Only by the tack of his scarf do we know his trajectory in the chalk white matrix.

God speed, Line Rider.

Think of his three pixel kids sitting at home, and his wife, who knit him the scarf.

Right you are, jimmythefish, right you are...

Here is a movie that demonstrates exactly what linrider can do:

If you want to try to help Line Rider overcome his largest obstruction, you can download the program here:

This is the kind of programming that I want to start out doing - awesome, huh?

Good for laughs.
