Thats one question that pops into my head after reading stories like the one i came across today!Here is a excerpt from the news article:
“A man collapsed and died from exhaustion after playing computer games for 10 days without a proper rest, police said on Friday. The 38-year-old man collapsed on Thursday as he was playing an online game at an Internet cafe in Incheon, west of Seoul. “He was carried to a nearby hospital but declared dead on arrival,” a police officer said. The officer said the man had played computer games from morning to night every day and had barely stopped to sleep. In August, a 28-year-old man died in southeastern Taegu city after playing an online computer game for more than two days.”
Wow this is crazy! And pretty sad too because this isnt the only incident i heard about this in Asia.I have also heard some one stabbing a friend for selling a “digital sword” that he had aquired in a game and killing that person.Another gamer jumped out a window because his mom forbade him from playing anymore world of warcraft for the night.And others just playing themselves to death!! How can someone sit there and play hours and hours on end with out getting up to eat or sleep! I seriously dont know how someone can do it! I consider myself a hardcore gamer,i own pretty much every game system that has come out and play video games on a day to day basis.But i have never been able to get my self to play for more than a few hours,so playing for days on end is beyond my comprehension.I can understand to a certain agree on why though.On games such as World of warcraft (which i havent played myself) you tend to join clans and go on on panty raids or go out hunting Emoo’s or what ever the hell you do in it,but when you do you mostly travel in packs,so as to not let down your team members you might tend to stay on longer to help your “clan buddies” out.You know the more people there are to help attack the more the odds are in your favor.But still is it worth loosing your life to help your buddies destroy a level 9 spice weasel,ummm i dont think so! Get a life dorks! But i dont know i guess alot of asians are really hard core with it,but then again its a known fact that they love fighting games and Rpg’s.I wonder why dont these cafe owner’s kick these loosers the fuck out after seein them sitting there for 10 hours straight? I would think that would be the smart thing to do! See if the guy dies u cant charge him to use your cafe anymore! see makes sense,so next time u see some one pull a gaming marathon do the smart thing and send his ass home! Duuuuh!!
After a week of waiting i finally got my tea sampler from adagio teas!! Woot Woot!! I really been drinking alot of tea especially at work to help give me a caffiene boost.Well i guess im kinda addicted to the stuff now! lol Well its not a bad thing anways since tea is supposed to be very good for you.I really have to cut down on coffee and soda because if you leave that stuff sitting on metal it will eat right through it,so imagine what its doing while in my stomach!!Well anyways i heard about this company from Kevin Rose from the diggnation podcast,who is also a avid tea drinker.So i decided to check it out and place a order since i was bored and didnt have anything else to do lol.But when it ariived it came wit a cool little filter mug which is pretty smart idea,maybe ill take a pic of it to show it in action.Also the tea is not the ones that comes in the little white bags its actual loose leaves! And i must say they look really good and smell awesome! Imma try some out today and maybe write a little mini review on them if im bored =o)
man its 6am!! one more hour of work and i can take my happy ass home to my bed and get some sleep! I Cant Wait!!!
