I found this in the local nespaper.

seems kinda ridiculous to me but I know a few people who could actually use it.

I have no social life, but thats just because I don't like people. It has nothing to do with my video games.

My friend could sure use that detox though. He skips school just to play WoW.

Reading it makes gaming sound horrible.

Oh, it is horrible.

I hate to say it but there are people who seriously need this stuff. Like the guy who died because he refused to stop playing WoW and died of a starvation/sleep deprivation combination.

"Bakker already has treated 20 video-game addicts, aged 13 to 30, since January. Some show withdrawal symptoms, such as shaking and sweating, when they look at a computer."

I had to laugh when I read this part, if you are having this type of reaction to being in the presence of any piece of hardware...its definately time for a "group intervention"..or "a swift kick in the a$$ to get a job and a life"

Hmm, maybe their heads are a little too close to the monitor or something, or they should stop licking the power supply cables.
