A girl's father asks me what World of Warcraft server I play on; I turn to the girl and say "Hey it's been real, thanks for letting me put my wiener in you; gotta go!"

I don't have GT but my friend does and when I come over to drink he and I usually race a lap in his Logitech seats it's great fun after a few beers to see how long you can stay on the track lol.
Madden - pretty much the same thing play a quick game then we're done.
All in all; I usually get bored of a game within 30 minutes at a time - or I'm too busy with other stuff. Only a few games that I will even be buying this year: Madden X, Batman Arkham Asylum and Brutal Legend.
Don't get me wrong man, I used to play WoW...for 4 years. I know it's addicting and **** but one day I woke up and I realized...I'm literally wasting my life in front of a computer.
Video games are fun - but when you take out the immediate social interaction (playing with other real people) and input that third wall...suddenly it becomes more of an unsocial action.
I was fortunate to realize that with WoW before it fully gripped me...now I see 'friends' that I haven't seen in literally YEARS who are hooked on it 24/7 and will cancel appointments, classes, work, and going out because they are playing.
I urge ANY World of Warcraft player - from the casual to the hardcore - STOP.

my brother got messed up in wow bad.. he lost everything close to him literally. The job, house, kids, wife, friends and family.. all for a computer game.. I have also seen this happen to everquest people.. its a shame when you can't put a limit on a game and let it suck you in.
