Yeti (SkiFree)
5 NOPE Moments That Ruined Our Childhood
We hate the yeti. We truly do. SkiFree is a simple computer game from 1991 that consisted solely of skiing. That much may be apparent from the title, but the ‘free’ part is something of a misnomer, for in actual fact, you are fleeing from the perpetual threat of the yeti. Perhaps it should have been called ‘SkiFlee’?
Like all of the other villains on this list so far, its sole purpose in this life is to eat you (that wasn’t an intentional choice; apparently everything that’s scary just also happens to be fond of human flesh). Alas, there is no reprieve from this fate, as this mountain happens to be of the eternal variety – the sweet embrace of death is the only thing that prevents your perpetual decline. In this sense, not only is the SkiFree yeti petrifying, it’s also far more symbolism than we’re ready to handle at this point in our lives. The worst kind of aggression is that of the existential variety.
