All these WoW threads are the same. Someone mentions they got WoW, everyone overreacts like they just announced they're shooting heroin. Don't blame a lack of self control on a video game.

Some people do use heroin on a regular basis and live to a ripe old age. The OP asked a question and got some feedback. I think it's a bad choice based on my experience. Is there anything that you would blame a lack of self control on?

The problem is that WoW is being compared to heroine.

Bod - If that's a problem why did you quote my quote of the quote? Why not just quote the first quote? The quote I quoted was the first time in the thread heroin was mentioned. I was merely responding with a counter example to implicitly imply that the hyperbole was superfluous.

 There was no implication in your post from which I might infer you felt that the comparison was malformed; in fact, your only reference to the comparison was in defense of it, which apparently was intended as sarcasm.
