Slashdot Mirror
PopCap Titles Life-Savers
GameSetWatch has a humorous look at a recent press package they received from PopCap Games. From the article: "'Earlier this summer I had a terrifying situation where an unexpected interaction of two new prescription medicines sent me into a panic attack so severe it made me attempt suicide. When I got home from the hospital that night, I sat there playing the endless version of Bejeweled 2 for most of the night, while the last of the overdose I had taken worked its way out of my system.' This, kind readers, is why casual games are actually pretty hardcore."
a panic attack so severe it made me attempt suicide. When I got home from the hospital that night
If the hospital sends you home "while the last of the overdose [you] had taken worked its way out of [your] system" then it wasn't much of an attempt so much as a whiny cry for attention. At the least they'd make you swallow a disgusting charcoal drink or pump you out and keep you for psychiatric evaluation.
Trolling is a art,
Just like watching movies, seeing plays, listening to music, reading novels etc.
Right?

Sometimes a few ounces of pure escapism can be a good thing, you know? Keep you from going slightly crazy, work out your anger nondestructively...
The World Wide Web is dying. Soon, we shall have only the Internet.

Har har! Overdosing on drugs and trying to kill yourself is funny!
I hate you, slashdot.
