I started this thing on Twitter with the hashtag #thisisyourbrainonvideogames I thought it was a pretty fun concept so I decided to write about it.
How do you know you're addicted to videogames?
- When you buy a new sweater you think to yourself: "plus 5 style, plus 10 warmth, -50 gold"
- When its dark and you hear crows outside your window you worry they'll fly through and you contemplate if you should: a) waste bullets on them b) knife them to death and risk losing health c) run out the door and come back because they won't be there anymore.
- When you see a red sky in the morning you think of dodging fireballs on a rooftop.
- When you see a full moon with clouds surrounding it you reach for your morning star and have an urge to whip candles.
- When you're tired you imagine a lifebar above your head reaching the red.
- When you find a quarter on the ground you hear the chime from Legend of Zelda when Link finds an item.
- When you've actually planned out a tactic for a zombie attack.
- When you see a dragonfly you want to pull out a net and catch it so you can give it to the Owl in the argyle sweater.
- When you see two animals fighting you scream, "tackle attack!"
I'm sure there's more. Are you addicted to videogames? Is this your brain on videogames too? Or is it just me?
When you waste your walking.
