your guilty pleasure's...

[Chlorine]

Nomas---"it's just the tight-ass in me that makes me feel guilty about relaxing or entertaining myself for the purposes of entertainment alone..."

Think that's symptomatic of our generation. Can't sit still. Hence when we have a bit of free time it becomes weird.

Frasbee----Yup, this forum is my addiction. I love reading the stuff, some of it is so damn funny.
BTW, I've noticed you've gone back to basic black. Found your true self?

Sometimes simple is better.

I'll change it up every now and again regardless.

yes halo 2 is the ultimated guilty pleasure

everytime, i ask myself why i waste my life on this thing.

I sometimes wonder how many hours i spent on it. You can check how many games you played, and i have over 500 ranked games played, at around 10 minutes each. So, thats 5000 minutes = more than 80 hours wasted on this stupid game. Im willing to guess its double that.

I keep telling myself, as soon as i reach level 30 im gonna quit, but i cant seem to get it.

Fras, what level are you?

Hmm, I have never played Halo, maybe I should try?

I love science fiction theme. I seek in old Lucas Arts adventure games etc.


But when I was a gamer, I spent like whole day playing CS. another day 14 hours a Half-Life mod called natural Selection when it was in its early stage without those stupid CO maps, then the game was scary. Maybe I should try AvP also?

Lately, I havent been much into gaming. I just don't feel like gaming anymore. I have GTA SA and I have only 2 missions left, the end mission and that casino robbery mission or whatever is it. But I just don't feel like playing that stuff anymore. I better read something.

Fras, what level are you?

I think I'm level 17.

I don't care so much about the levels though.

What's your gamer tag?

[whaywardj]

Nah, its nothing like that. The guilty part is spending the money on them. I love new books and I often borrow money from my parents to buy them. lol. I should be hiding from the bookstore, but I love it to much!

Do the words "public library" ring a bell?

[boobaa]

If i buy a book, then usually it stays on a bookself. if I lend a book from library, then it usually stays half a year on a bookself or in my schoolbag somwehre and after that, I read it in 2 days and a month later turn it to the library.


But well, most of the stuff i read, comes from the internet. I spend half of my time in forums...

i like books too.

I can't go to the library because I h`never have time to return them afterwards. Now, I have so many overdue books, I think they're sending out the public library cops after me.

Yikes.

I used to go there all the time when I was little. I've never really been interested in going back there since then.

[whaywardj]

Might want to re-visit. CDs. Video games. DVDs. Books, even.

[misombra]

i fail to see how reading books is a guilty pleasure.

[artyemi]

It is if you're spending money that you don't have, which is what I usually do.

And it's too crazy because I'll spend $10 on a book, and I'm finished with it two-three hours later.

The alternative was sitting at a library for a few hours and read a few books.

I can't do that these days, no time to spare between the son, the family, the boyfriend and the friends.

I have no arty time. That makes me depressed sometimes.

[misombra]

ten bucks? you know you could go to amazon and buy them way cheaper used. i just buy the oldest, cheapest used book listed. you could get books for a buck. and the best thing about it is you don't have to bother going to the stupid second hand book store where they've filtered out whatever isn't profitable to them.

[artyemi]

yes, yes, but you can't go sit at an amazon...

there is a little book shop though that sells them cheap. it just closes way too early for me.

[boobaa]

Dam, I have books in my computer. Like 70 pages to 300 and I need to print those because it is too confusing, frustrating to read them from monitor.

But well, I am not so computerized. 5 hours per day is enough. I go out every day and I even know what is the feel of sunburn!

But I hate winters. In Baltic, we have the grayest winters on Earth!
