    The guards in Ocarina of Time were long overdue for a performance review, so I went undercover to see how good of a job they're all doing.
    ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ About j0rts ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
    Hi there! I'm j0rts (Ben), and I like to explore mostly pointless things in video games while playing them in weird, unconventional ways.
    Despite my name, this channel has nothing to do with jorts. In fact, I've never even worn a pair of jorts in my life. I just find the word fun to say... j o r t s.
    Anyways, thanks for taking the time to check out my channel. If you'd like to hang out with me live, be sure to visit my Twitch channel over at / j0rts

    If you refuse to sell the Death Mountain guard the Keaton Mask, he’ll lock the gate again until you do. Even if you’re being a brat about it, dude’s defying s royal decree.
