Why buy coke then, when you can just play games all night?



I can only hope that the Tory cabinet has the common sense to ignore this. At least he didn't say this when Gordon Brown was in power, but then Gordon ignores his advisors and does whatever the hell he wants anyway. See: Marijuana's reclassification.

He is WRONG! I do 1 line of coke everyday and can confirm they are slightly diffrent.



It was definately a high coming home from the pub, use some cocaine and play splitscreen gt2 for the rest of the night.

Ugh the amount of self abuse we went through to wind down from a high stress job :/ Why is gaming always bad for your health, high stress jobs are far worse.



But coke is addictive  and with gaming i can stop at any time..really i can.

 

this guy is an idiot. Give a person a reason and they'll deem whatever a menace to society. Meanwhile we can have other things like prescription pill popping (which i dont know how you guys but in my area is taken all other drugs by storm) and not deal with it. whatever...

...When death is on it's way"

gaming can be addicting and yes not only world of warcraft. one of my friends destroyed his life with videogames. hes without work for 5 years now and he's very intelligent. he has no friends anymore, he didn't have a girlfriend since i know him and he's doing nothing than playing and sleeping.

 

he is 30 and i don't even know if he ever had a girlfriend  or other friends than me but that all doesn't change the fact that gaming isn't as bad as drugs and i will never believe that someone kills his school mates just because he played cod...



So... we're all going to jail, right?
