+414 The person who invented the blue shells in Mario Kart must have been a firm believer in the phrase "first is the worst", amirite?

I hate those communist blue shells.

Unless you're in second...

Well then, in that case, a red shell would do just fine. You know, then all the other players wouldn't have the power to spin you out from anywhere on the track.

True, but red shells can miss while the blue ones can't.

actually my brother has been missed by one. and in another case, my was in first and had a blue shell on me, but when I crossed the finish line, it zoomed back to hit my brother who was in second place

Also if you go through a cannon or some jump you can't miss (Jungle Parkway, DK Mountain, etc.) you won't be affected. ...not that I'd know by experience...

You can use a mushroom to dodge a blue shell as well, if you can master the timing.

It sucks when you're in second and really close to first and the blue shell hits you and them.
