WoW

WATCH THIS!


This is insane. I played world of warcraft trial, thought it was fun, but never wanted to pay 20 bucks a month for it or whatever. I never got addicted or anything, but seeing this I'm so glad I never got into it. I know about 10 friends who are addicted to it, but I don't think they got this insane.

WTF. All those types of games can be very addicting (pokemon anyone?) and they are very hard to shake off when you're locked in. The problem is that there is never an end to it so you can go on forever.

Thats why I will never get into one of the those games every again.

That reminds me so much of being 16 or so, and my brother and dad having those kinds of arguments.

"You've crossed the line??"

Kid crossed the line with the first round of infantile whining.

If the folks hadn't let him get away with that shit when he was three, they wouldn't be having this problem now.

Please remember that parent is an active, not passive, verb as well as a noun. Thank you.

I couldn't hear the OT, so I was only relying on the text on screen.
It made it very apparent that the parents were negotiating from the beginning.
Even children used to getting their own way usually respond when spoken to in the "right" way ie no negotiation, no compromise. Otherwise they'd never get through school.

I accept it must be hard though.

I just listened. Now that everyone is out of the office I could turn up the volume.

What a little asshole, is all I can say.

The American Medical Association has lost it's collective mind.

We were having a discussion about this at work, so I played the first clip for our shrink.

I've been thinking about this carefully, though, and am considering the option of going out on disability ... for Video Game Addiction and Binge Eating Disorder.

I just have to get a good couch for my ass to grow into before I can start the paperwork.
