Too Much Gaming, Anyone?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the yes-there-is-such-thing dept.

Nrik noted a wired story about too much gaming and how sometimes a few too many hours of gaming can cause your mind to blur some lines. For me it was Tony Hawk- I played so much that I started sizing up curbs for grinding while driving home from work. Katamari Damacy has been a problem too. I'm fairly certain my car is large enough to pick up the railings on the overpass near my house. I'm even more certain that these thoughts are bad.

    In my opinion, we haven't seen any advantage for oil and question why anyone would expect that going to war would help with oil prices/quantity. To me, the war is not an issue of oil.

    That's because you're not seeing it from the right angle. It's not a war *for* oil, it's a war for *control of* oil. You didn't expect that the oil industry (of which I am a part, fair disclosure and all) would want prices lower, did you?
