A starving hipster artist gets tired of everything. He is tired of his two annoying room mates. He is tired of the shitty punk band downstairs. He is tired of the filth covering the city streets. Most of all, he is tired of being poor. Reno tries his best to cope, but sometimes you just have to kill somebody. With the aid of a portable battery pack, Reno wonders the streets killing the scum of the city.
