Stuck in the middle with you
Hm, maybe WoW is a little too addictive...

Wanted: Life

I would like to purchase a life, I came to the conclusion that I don't have one, that they sound quite interesting. I currently play Warcraft for 50-70 hours a week, if not more. My entire time I an not working or sleeping (3 hours a night for sleep) I am playing warcraft, I have come to realize I am a loser.

When I go to work, customers hit on me all the time, I often walk past bars and girls try and get me to come in and talk to them...I always turn everyone down because I want to play warcraft. When my friends ask me to go out? I check with my warcraft schedule to see if I can fit in a few hours with my friends....I even drink a lone now, because I can play warcraft and drink alone at the same time.

I recently realized that Warcraft has become a problem when people I play with online have become more like friends than my real friends. I girl I play with from Michigan asked me for my number tonight, because she was upset about game issues, and needed someone to talk to to console her. She ****ing called someone from a video game? WTF? Sad thing is, I found this a reasonable request and we talked for a few hours trying to make her feel better.

We use voice servers ingame so that our guild can talk to each other, I find that most of the people I talk to in the game talk to each other more than we talk to people we actually know. This is terrible...I used to go out and get laid. I used to go watch baseball games, go out drinking, go out doing the stupid things that people do to have fun (and get in trouble.)

I really need a life, I think my warcraft addiction is less healthy than a crack addiction would be, atleast if I were a crackhead I could have sex with other crackheads....can't really say that it would be better than beating off while talking to other video-gamers....but I would think it would be?

If anyone has a spare life laying around that they don't want anymore, give me a holler.
 
wow. thats a sad sad person.. good luck to him, he sounds like he could really need some help..
 
Unfortunately I know someone like that. He failed all his classes, got kicked out of school and isn't going to college because of WoW. He often sleeps in his chair at his computer desk.
 
Replace "Warcraft" with "MacRumors" and you could probably apply that to a few members here...

Well, hey, we don't have voice servers. So it's entirely different....
