    I'm really glad I don't play WoW.

    Give me Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, Mass Effect, and Fable 2.

    Well I don't really agree with calling him a loser, since the term is a social construction relative to each society and individual anyways.

    Social constructions change with every passing day sometimes hence why I avoid using them if I can. (ex: smoking was cool in the 70-90s and now it isn't)

    For example, the recent term 'lack of a life' obviously refers to a social life, but you can lack an active social life(at least by the standards of teenagers these days) and still be a very healthy human being. Society and the media have influenced people in the lifestyle they live.

    But I digress, this isn't a philosophical nor ethical thread lol, it is about us, uniting to observe a phenomena not seen everyday.

    While I personally do not agree with what he's doing, I do not label him anything other than an individual with an odd passion.

    Btw, did anyone confirm what job he was working at to pay for all those things? :confused:

    I can imagine this being very expensive on the electric bill. I'm wondering if he chose the laptops because they use less electricity than desktops?

    Number of friends who dropped out of university to play WoW: 3
    Price of the last computer game I've bought: $49.99 (CoH)
    Number of Java applets that auto-run my web-based games like KoL: 3

    Number of times this guy watched 36 adult-films at once? Priceless

    Mom! Get out of my command center!

    Seriously though, this guy must have crucial macros and coordination.
