1. Spending 12 hours playing "Candy Crush" instead of adulting
Because who needs a social life when you can have 1000s of points?
2. Getting stuck on level 10 of "The Legend of Zelda" for 6 months
It's not cheating if you're just... re-arranging the furniture?
3. Accidentally joining a multiplayer game with a botched account
Who needs a functioning internet connection when you can have a 56k dial-up?
4. Spending $1000s on in-game purchases
Because who needs to pay rent when you can have a pixelated sword?
5. Screaming at the screen for 2 hours because of a minor setback
When the going gets tough, the tough get going... into therapy?
6. Forgetting what game you're playing and playing the wrong one instead
Who needs a memory when you can have a "help me, please" message?
7. Getting married to a character because you can't get over them
When love is a many-splendored thing... of pixels?
8. Spending 3 days trying to get 100% on a single achievement
Because 99% just isn't worth it, apparently?
9. Getting a gaming-related injury that'll leave you in a wheelchair
When you're too busy gaming to get up from the floor...
10. Dedication yourself to a gaming chair for 6 months
Who needs a social life when you can have a good chair?
