<< Boryeong Mud Festival | Main | Save your soul. Find my droid. >> July 19, 2006 >> Mania I am a filthy antisocial lately. The source of my isolation? An old enemy, returned to wholly devour my waking (non-teaching) hours. It's pretty sad - I push myself through 11 straight hours of jabbering children just so I can sit on my computer and play Star Wars until I pass out. It has become incentive to live. I've woven this pattern before: if past instances with The Game Video are any indication, I will ignore any and all social responsibility for the next week or so in favour of watching Jedi do badass lightsaber flips on my computer screen. I will become extremely vindictive and surly and irritable if anyone tries to pull me away from this entrancing image. Then, ultimately, I will burn myself and never manage to beat the game. I will tell myself that I will come back one day... finish it when I have more time... but once the madness subsides, I never play again. The only road to success lies through the straits of furious obsession. I stride the path, Force within me. [antisocial] [obsession] [video games] Posted by Chris at 09:21 AM >> Commentations (5)
