Saw it on fox news first(but wasn't on their website?). Dude weighed over 330 lbs. Kinda makes you wanna turn the computer off and go fishing or something...

lol theres a much more interesting life outside computers. I cant believe these sad gits who spend 4 hours plus a day on world of warcraft or something! How depressing must your life be to do that!!

yeah its really mad isnt it! did you ever hear about that bloke who played games for like 78 hours straight or something ridiculus like that. it was in Korea somewhere! madness and it was a few years ago aswell. its really sad aswell in a sad way.

i dont get how people can sit and use computers allllll day. i mean i work with them but it sometimes gets to me.

This seems to be a recurring theme in Asia.

I heard that a guy killed himself with a shotgun when his WoW girlfriend dumbed him online. When they found him his game was still loged on. Crazy, I play games, but I make sure I do other things to. Like tonight I have a Tae Kwon Do class to go to. I also have college, & a job. This guy stop coming into work just to play WOW. I wonder What level he was. Must have been high.

I am ALWAYS on my computer.
I do school at home, and work on here.

Though, I am walking alot everyday and .... eating rather healthy

I tease my brothers till they get off of it... it may sound cruel, but they dont play it as much anymore... and it made one of my brother loose his girlfriend... and she was a babe.
