The shame for me is greatest when I end up playing really shitty games for very long periods of time. For example - ArmorGames.com - tower defense games are a past time for me when I am burned out on EQ/WOW/D3/OVerwatch/Whatever. So I will sit and play Monkey Balloon Tower Defense 5 for 4 hours at a time. Or I will load my Zelda Classic and start running through custom quests only to realize I've been doing it for 5 hours straight.

WoW is actually great because you simply run out of sh!t to do and it has self imposed daily and weekly timers to keep you from wasting your life away. It just gets kind of boring and the 'thrill of pixels' is not nearly as great as it is in EQ. There is a medium between WOW and EQ (Final Fantasy Online almost it it) that would make the P99 community very happy

Perfect example is my new Avatar - I took a SS when I received Agni playing on my SNES emulator a couple of weeks ago (Breath of Fire). I sat for 5 or 6 hours and beat the entire game in one sitting.

I don't need an excuse for what I do for entertainment as long as it doesn't hurt anyone and doesn't break any laws. The inference is flawed.

please don't compare Breath of Fire (one of best games ever) to tower defense.

Hard to believe Tim Curry is 71 years old now.

Rocky Horror Picture Show was awesome, I used to go see it at a theatre which played it every Friday night and people actually acted out the movie as the movie played.

The best part was when the wedding took place because movie goers came equipped with bags of rice which they slung all over the place, rice was thrown at everyone and everything. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I don't... I just do what I want to do because I am an adult and life isn't worth being serious about. You are going to die and the Universe will never know you existed.
