In the recent wake of Warcraft adiction, my friend Charlie sent me a link to the following articel that shows what happens when things get really bad:
They can't stop playing video games
Addiction has proved deadly in some cases
Seems that if you play upwards of 15 hours a day, you might be endangering your life. The article goes on to explore a number of video game deaths that have occured in Korea. Seems you have to be a bit extreme to kill yourself......or do you?

Actually living in South Korea and seeing how addicted these children are to computer games, it is not surprising that some people stay up for days at a time. The Internet cafes are on every corner. They all have broadband and it is extremely cheap to go there.
When I ask my students what they like to do in their spare time, about 90% of the males answer go to the PC room or play computer games. Of those, all most every single student LOVES Starcraft. It is one of the most popular games here.
Bizarre! GAMING = ADDICTION = STAYING UP LONG HOURS TO WIN= BITCHES THAT DON'T CARRY THEIR ASSES TO WORK = BECOME LAZY = DEATH
*bitch slaps some goddamned sense into C's head*
You're just askin for an ass kicking.
Don't make me come out there.
I think the longer you don't have sex, the grumpier you get. Fucking get laid and shut up.
The Night Elf has spoken.
It is inappropriate to call her by C anymore, she is now Valarya, the Night Elf Druid. Valarya is an Officer of the Emrald Star Order and keeper of Azroth. C is now an afterthought.
While this post may have been started in jest, I now get a sinking feeling seeing it again.
(refer to my blog for the signs of addiction)
Mike is Ultra Super Sayajin 4!
The Night Elf seems to be grumpy too...
I'm not gonna run off and get laid for two reasons:
1. It's now become a personal challenge...How long is it humanly possible for me to go? If anything, we should start an betting pool.
2. Tom is my boyfriend, and I kind of like him. If he's off getting laid while I'm gone, good for him. I don't want to hear about it. Likewise, I'm sure he doesn't want to hear it either.
So- I dare you to come to Jeju. You'd forget all about kicking my ass once you were sitting on an awesome beach with a mother fucking pina colada in your hand. Eat some candy, play uno, and shut the fuck up.
PS. I really miss fighting with you like this in person...
Ooh... face.
Miss ya too, hun.
T,
Good to hear you'll be around! first, to keep in line with the thread here: not an extensive choice of gaming options while you're crashing at my house: ps2 Tiger Woods 2005 and Golden Eye. And there's my desktop from my thesis year(sllllllllllllllllowwwww 256 RAM 1.8G processor w/ Nvidia GF3) with all the rendering and modeling programs you could want (I'm sure that's just what you're looking for, lol). So looks like all we're going to be able to do is drink... damn
As for Clint, I've seen him around for the last few Thanksgivings and Christmas'. I ran into the Tatnall crowd @ the Brandywine Brewing Company (now closed). No idea where Conner is. Shoot me a line or two by email and let me know what the deal is with timing and all that.

Daaaaannng. You guys are all fighting now - what the hell is goin on???????
There is no time to play video games in North Korea, because my citizens spend all their time worsipping the Dear Leader. I, however, like to play the SimCity.
