Going Overboard

Thank God the husband no longer plays World of Warcraft.

You're probably thinking that he quit because I was having trouble with all the time he spent playing. Nope. If he wants to play MMORPG's, I don't really have an issue with it, so long as he's not spending every waking hour on the damn computer either playing or dealing with "guild business." It's fun for him. While I don't get it and never really will, it's not for me to judge. And, as I've mentioned before, anything that leaves me with sole control over the tee vee is a good thing.

No, the reason I'm glad he's not playing WoW anymore is because of crap like this.

Now, the husband would never want this bit o' machinery in the first place, mainly because he likes to build his own gaming rigs. But, I'm glad he quit playing because I don't want him associating with people who would buy this sort of thing.

Embracing your inner geek is one thing; slapping down your credit card to buy a World of Warcraft Edition Dell Laptop is entirely another.

Back in MY day, it was BCGs and pocket protectors that announced your Everlovin' Geekishness to the masses. Huh.
