WeChat & avast! 7 launch in Malaysia @ Zouk Club KL

Hello people.

Last week I had the chance to try out my new camera at APAC Venture's Glitz & Glam Blogger's party; the official launch of WeChat and avast! 7 at Velvet Underground, Zouk Club KL in Malaysia.

Dun Dun Dunnn..

I had to briefly excuse myself from a shoot and drive all the way Subang to KL for this event. Thankfully I got there just in time for the speech.

Assistant General Manager of Tencent's internetional business group, 
Norman Tam



Chief Channel Sales and Operations, Avast! 
Arthur Baumann

The launch was celebrated together with 200 bloggers, local celebrities, media members and partners in the number one club in Malaysia, Zouk Club KL

Master of Ceremonies, 
Celebrity supermodel Leng Yein

The one with the angelic smile,

Rebranded as WeChat on the 19th April 2012, it is the no.1 most free downloaded app in the world which supports English, Simplified/Traditional Chinese, Indonesian, Portuguese, Thai and Vietnamese on iOS and Android, Symbian and Windows. 

I downloaded WeChat and it's pretty cool. You can do the basic functions for text messaging, voice messaging, broadcast (one-to-many) messaging, photo/video-sharing, location sharing and contact info exchange.  

Your emoticons can be customised to whatever you want as well as the customisable background.


There are also pretty cool games that you can play like Rock-Paper-Scissor mini-games on your phone that you need to try out.


WeChat is loaded with futuristic features like "Moments" which is better than Instagram providing artistic filters, captioned and distributable photos you can easily share with your friends.

Many celebrities are using this app too!

There's a pretty cool "Look Around", "Shake" and "Drift Bottle" if you wanna have a sick time or find friends at a party.






As of March 2012, there are 100 million users of WeChat and recently they added another 40 million users to that number. 

For more information about WeChat, contact APAC Venture at www.wechatapp.com or james@apacventure.com

In conjunction with WeChat's launch, the world's no.1 security program avast! released it's new version 7 antivirus with features such as "helper-friend" to aid you with whatever computer issues you have (there's no need to install additional programs). With the "Account" feature, you check on your CPU's operation status and health of each machine.

avast! has many new improved features such as the "AutoSandbox" that quarantines suspicious programs inside the Sandbox which separates your browser with the system so in your browser gets hijacked in won't affect your CPU system; to top it off after scanning the program, a report is generated which recommends you your next action on how to treat the program in future.

avast! Software protects over 150 million users all over the world and ensures security, privacy protection and antivus applications.

The portfolio of avast! includes the new avast! Business Protection for companies, the premium avast! Internet Security with SafeZone and avast! Pro Antivirus for that's customizable according to your needs. Supported by CommunityIQ, the new avast! 7 has a network of sensors supported by multiple shields that is certified by VB100, ICSA Labs and WestCoast Labs.

Davidoff Champion: The Champion in You


What is, or more specifically; 


What makes a Champion?

Everyone carries and looks up to a Champion inside their hearts. 

My Champion is one who works hard to be the best, and is at the same time worthy of being recognized and respected by all.

My Champion, is the God of Comedy, 

Stephen Chow.


I grew up as a kid watching almost all of his movies (I don't remember the titles sadly) and I'm happy to say I'd sue him for making my stomach hurt so much from all the chronic laughing.

when Sam Insanity recommends a video, you don't need to think twice 
I'll just kill you with laughter.

This man is a living legend. He is my idol and he (along with Jim Carrey) is the reason why I like entertaining and making people laugh and smile all the time.


Of course, I too am human; and sometimes I feel like giving up. Torn by the cold splashes of reality; chasing after my passion, but I know the greats before me have stared fear straight in the eye and overcome it.

I wear Davidoff Champion as Eau De Toilette and aftershave to remind me I walk the footsteps of the Champion.




Each time I stray from the path I walk, the smell reminds me of Davidoff Champion's consolidated dumbbell shape, "a symbol of power and masculinity" and it keeps me positive. 
  
Davidoff is holding an online contest (it's super easy) on Facebook for Malaysian residents. 
Starting from this week following the next three weeks, all the way until the 10th of June 2012. 

Click here for details. 

Once the weekly contest is over, I'll be joining the Davidoff Bloggers Contest and you'll be able to see my picture there.


If you have a minute to spare me, vote for Sam Insanity as 
your Favorite Blogger when the time comes. (I haz cookies)

Who is your Champion?

Celebrity Fitness or Fitness First? (Malaysia)


Years pass and you realize it's time to get into shape, well that's fan-fuckin'-tastic.


Hips don’t lie, especially with Veritaserum


My post will briefly, but well-roundedly compare Fitness First vs Celebrity Fitness.. two of the most over-publicized gyms in Malaysia endorsed by glamorous unpopular local celebrities; please don't fall for that.


If you want to know about the disadvantages of joining a big commercialized gym, click here.

I did not include True Fitness and other gyms because

1) a True Fitness consultant actually knocked on my car window and asked me to buy membership. It'll go bankrupt sooner or later.

2) Other gyms.. well, their locations are bullshit, and I've never heard of them (what on earth is Gorgeous Fitness?), so I'll spare making them look as bad than they already are.


Staff counter

Fitness First staff receptionists are friendly, smile all the time and talk to you. Kissing-ass and sucking-up to you, pretending that they 'care' just to make you feel personally attached and stay at the gym so they get to keep their jobs longer. When you forget to bring your membership card, they'll make you fill out an annoying data form just to check-in to the gym.

Celebrity Fitness staff receptionists are 'alright' just because they don't stroke balls with annoying fake smiles and they do things fast, I like it that way. When you forget your card, all you need is to give them your handphone number. They'll key it in and, voila. Simple as that.

Celebrity Fitness - 1
Fitness First - 0 (I hate ass-kissers.)


Cleaners

I despise both cleaners at Fitness First and Celebrity Fitness because they mop the floors while everyone is still working out during operational hours at gym; and they are not supposed to fucking do that!

We don't like stepping on wet floors when walking to the toilet you morons, it's dangerous and bad for our expensive Nike shoes.

Marks deducted for that one.

Celebrity Fitness - (-1)
Fitness First - (-1)



Opening hours

Fitness First -
Monday to Friday 6.30am to 11.00pm on weekdays, 7.00am to 7.00pm on weekends.

Celebrity Fitness -

Round one goes to

Celebrity Fitness - 1

Trainers

Fitness First trainers are lame, smile at you all the time and stand around.

No matter how many times you ask for help with a certain machine, they will never give out free advice unless you inquire about PT training, always referring you to their 'packages'. As if these damned salesmen aren't paid enough to stand around. They also flirt with female staff and members which I think is unprofessional and slimy.

Although I would never buy their expensive-ass scam packages, Fitness First trainers are much.. much better trainers than Celebrity Fitness trainers. Why? Because they've gone through that Les Milles certified training bullshit.

And Celebrity Fitness trainers? They are the worst.

I was met with disappointment upon my first day joining as they assigned an old.. inexperienced, illeterate, smelly Bangladeshi to me. I was appalled. They asked this 'PT trainer' with broken english to show me around and give me my 2 trial 'PT training', I predicted he would offer me some stupid packages later on.

His breath was bad.

So I was jogging on the treadmill and he kept talking to me, I was annoyed and in my head I was screaming 'shut. the. fuck. up'.

Every sentence he would end with 'bro'. Yeah bro. Like that bro. Cool bro. Chill bro.

Dude, I am not your bro.

If I was I'd punch you in balls, tie them with a string to a ceiling fan, and laugh at you.

I was curious with how on earth he got the job, so I asked him about his job before he was interviewed and accepted by CF.

He told me he was a.. lorry driver.. I was speechless.
And the job before that? Post Office Laju Malaysia delivering letters (what the fish?)

After that we did some stupid kiddy basic workouts. When I finished my sets he tried to sell me some other stupid discounted packages that Celebrity Fitness made him memorise. I was surprised he had enough brains to use a calculator. The next day I called up the management and asked them to cancel my trial 'PT training' as I was not interested one bit and never saw the guy again.


I was working out another day. Right after finishing my set hitting the tricep muscles, I was catching up with my breath. This muscular buff smily trainer acting all polite came up to 'inform' me a package 'promotion'.

"God." I thought to myself, "annoying buggers." I told him to go away and expressed 0 interest in any whatsoever packages.


Seriously, not only does Celebrity Fitness hire anyone off the road and call them trainers; they're annoying like fucking salesmen and I hate my workouts being interrupted.

If you want PT training, please for god's sake choose Fitness First. They'd push you, and you wouldn't want tattoo-ed fat amateurs to train you.

Drinks

Fitness First provides soft drinks gone bad. The 100PLUS and Sprite taste like acid mixed with bleach, and their Ice Lemon Tea has enough sugar in it to give you diabetes in a week. Hell gyms aren't supposed to have drinks at all, they're supposed to be healthy!

Their boiled water tastes like melted plastic, ugh.
The worst part is their green tea taste funny, and I love green tea so it was real..bad.

The drinks there have enough carbs and sugar to ruin the calories you burned through a 3-hour workout.

Celebrity Fitness has cold drinking fountains that taste like unfiltered water. I doubt they changed the filters unless I launch a complaint. But otherwise, having water is better than having soft drinks in a gym.

.

Toilet (Changing Rooms, Lockers, Shower)

The toilets in Fitness First look nice and classy, and the lockers installed are really hi-tech cutting edge technology. However, the lockers smell really, really bad. Something between the lines of fermented cheese and sour ass. They're equipped with fucking tiny hairdryers. The water heating system sucks. When too many members shower at the same time, there is hardly any hot water at all.

In Celebrity Fitness, you have to carry your own lock around which is pretty inconvenient when you leave it at home and forget to bring the annoying thing. The lockers also smell like sour ass. The overall look of the toilet facilities is a basic 3 out of 5. The thing I like most about CF is their water.

Hallelujah.

Celebrity Fitness has a powerful central water heating system that keeps the water warm on default all the time. When too many members shower, you will still be able to 'Ahh~' to the hot.. steamy shower. They are equipped with powerful hairdryers as well.

Towels

Fitness First requires you to bring your own towel, which sucks because.. who'd wanna wash their own sweaty towels?

Celebrity Fitness has a designated towel counter for members. Just give them any kinds of cards (I usually use my expired driving license) and you'll get a small and big towel with a towel card. Don't lose any of them or you'll have to pay!

Equipment

Sometimes when you're in bad luck, at peak hours the gym fills up like a sardine can.

I found that Fitness First had less machines and the varieties to target muscles are limited compared to the Machines at Celebrity Fitness.

Classes

Fitness First offers classes that are taught by unattractive quiet instructors plucked off a newspaper ad.

They cannot possibly compete with the classes in Celebrity Fitness taught by trained professionals.

Keep an eye out for Sonny teaching his extreme Zoomba Dance on Thursdays Celebrity Fitness 8pm, he is fucking good at it.

Fees

I'm fully sponsored to workout at Celebrity Fitness for free because I have good contacts in there.

Fitness First is definitely more expensive than Celebrity Fitness.

Last I heard Celebrity Fitness charges RM189 for passport fees and Fitness First charges RM195 for passport fees. Passport membership allows access to all branches nationwide.

Branches


Fitness First has 13 branches in Malaysia and 100s all over the world.

Celebrity Fitness has 9 in Malaysia and some branches in India as well as Indonesia.

No competition here, Celebrity Fitness loses.

Celebrity Fitness - 0
Fitness First - 1


Partners


Fitness First is parterned with Nando's... yum.

Both FF and CF have partnership with GNC Live Well and various other workout supplements.

However Celebrity Fitness is tied to dozens of businesses and have many offers for the members. This round goes to Celebrity Fitness.

Total Points

Celebrity Fitness: 9 (-1 for cleaners) = 8

Fitness First: 2 (-1 for cleaners) = 1


Celebrity Fitness wins with 8 points ahead,
but the cleaner's schedule needs fixing.

5 signs the Internet has taken over your mind (and your life)

At the final scene of your predicament, here you are now.. a grown adult at the age of 28.


The damage has been done.

A lifeless, loser, fat ass living with your parent's support devoting all your time on a high-end PC grinding on a stupid ripoff of Warcraft, and a bit of silly Mafia Wars and Zynga Poker on facebook perhaps? I know you know what I know that we know your chair probably SMELLS LIKE ASS and MUSHROOMS.

Or


I'm trying my best not to comment on this.

But I will anyway, you're either a jobless weeder hobo and your mind is trapped a state of limbo confined within the walls of your room not knowing what's going on with your life or who cares about you anymore forcing your parents to take care of you until death wearing a bra.


Which is similar to the Creutzfeldt-Jakob illness
(a.k.a Mad Cow Disease)

So what happened?

It all started when the internet innocently crept inside your subconsciousness and started raping your mind. Mating with your brain and securing itself as an everyday part of your life.

As an internet addict myself, I hereby declare your brain a state of emergency and shall now identify

The 5 signs the Internet has taken over your mind (and your life).



1st Sign, Problem 1: Real life discussions

What. the. fuck.

I dont know about you guys from other coutries, but my country Malaysia is retarded to the max level of retardation existing to the point it breaks and exceeds any set records or levels possible of the word RETARD.

The minute I step into a Starbucks, every idiot going to college (just to name a few.. INTI, Sunway, Taylors, Segi, Nottingham, KDU, Monash, HELP... okay, all colleges) especially the girls I happen to pass by at a table in Starbucks, all gossip about people in their campuses or other campuses that they don't know about personally.. all the damn time.


Smile dumbfucks, you're on Sam Insanity's blog.

I mean seriously.

The gossips are held every fucking day on a daily basis (mainly during lunch time) about

1) Who said what on facebook
2) Who's dating who (or might be)
3) Who likes who
4) What they did last night
5) What clothes they wear
6) How rich they are

Literally for freaking hours and hours, and this doesn't happen only in colleges, it spreads from workplaces, to auntie gatherings, to seminars, to libraries just.. slurring people, GOSSIPING.

Talk about internet controlling their minds... Why not bitch about yourself hos?

Seriously man, Malaysians are lifeless because they didnt need the internet to begin with.. Correction. The 95% of youth and workforce monkeys are dumbfucks who couldn't possibly save their life if they depended on it.

Probably of the 100,000 people in Malaysia given internet, a mere 1000 makes full use about it while the other 99,000 monkeys use it to stalk and cheat on their wives by sending private messages to fake accounts with pictures of girls wearing revealing stuff.

Sadly, none of my intellectually deficit Malaysian countrymen have my
knowledge of easily identifying fake accounts.


The people in Starbucks speak loudly in broken english like:

No life girl 1: Eh you know the long hair guy ah, nehhh that one mah.. come here everyday to sleep. I heard hes model leh

No life guy 1: Macipek.. I hate that guy, so damn show off you know. Wearing his ZARA around, who he think he is? Think he so rich ah? Go study in taloys la!

No life girl 2: Aiyaaaa Dun be like that lah.. he's a nice guy k. Dat day he accept my fren request.

No life girl 1: No way man i hate him so muchhhhh! Dat day I add him on facebook he reject me.

No life guy 1: Walau.. think he is king. No life mannnn

No life girl 1: Cuz think hes model, isk liddat one lahhhhh

No life guy 1: Cibai that guy.. I very dulan hear so much bout him di. Moi diu about him jor lah. Tonight go sing k, k? (monkey language meaning: hit the karaoke) the cheap cheap oneeee.

*A pretty girl walks into Starfucks*

No life guy 1, No life girl 1, No life girl 2: Oyoooo that girl u kno wat I heard bout herrrr......

And it goes on.

I wannn to learn engrishhhh lehhhhhhhh

(They actually speak in short forms, such as 'u', 'k', 'u kno?' 'cuz' mixing cantonese and corrupted engrish which makes me go ohh my fucking lord..)

And yes, that retard talk up there, goes on everyday damn day of the week.

I don't give a flying fuck about all the emptiness in their life, but I'm not going to pity them either for having no future so I'm letting the whole world know how stupid the young people here are.


Solution

At that stage of life being together with so many monkeys everyday who've had the internet taken over their lives and brain-raped over and over and over without knowing they're addicted..?

The only way I could possibly think up to escape retard gathering time is to dump that damn group, and find the right people to talk to such as white people to actually boost communication skills and learning to become more open minded. Otherwise they're going to be encouraged by other monkeys to be monkeys.



2nd Sign, Problem 2: Time Mismanagement


Picture this in your head.

You were selected to brief everyone about a new revolutionary approach to handling a project where the CEO of your company will happen to be there listening. The call time is 8am in the morning.

That's you on the right, and your badass boss is
the bald Vin Diesel guy with the fancy suit on the left.

11:00 pm, your Mind's voice says:




Mind: Alright, I've finally finished studying the notes and don't need them for the presentation. I'm well-prepared, confident, and have completely covered everything. It's time to sleep!


Suddenly, a comforting thought from your fingers stroke the back of your head:


Body: I'll stay online.. for just 5 more minutes... I've worked long.. hard hours.. and I deserve time to myself....


Sound familiar to you?


11.10pm Mind: But I.. should be sleeping.. it's a big one tomorrow, the Boss is going to be there.

This time, your Body's voice insists on facebook time out of curiosity and stalker syndrome of what your friends and crush are doing at this hour.. it puts its feet down.

11.25pm

Body says: It's only JUST 5 minutes anyway..


And that's when you login to facebook, procrastinate sleep over and over until you get catapulted into the future, and realise you've spent 4 hours by the time you logout.

Sleeping time, 3.25am.

Mind says: Fuck.
Doesn't work that way buddy.

The next day you wake up at 9am and arrive at 10am two hours late, then you find out you've been fired from work because the asshole boss does not entertain any form of nonsense.

It isn't his fault though, because you fucked the big presentation up by letting your body take control of you.

Now, since when did your mind get bought over by the Online gods?

The key words to look at in that evil line is.. well pretty much everything.

'Only' 'Just' '5 minutes' 'Anyway' are the words where when you think about them now, you start realise your Body created an action that has taken over your Mind's logical reasoning.

Therefore the constant battle between Mind and Body.

Mind: Hmm.. I can still make it and apologize
Body: She'll embarass you in class anyway, Skip Class

Solution


No comment. Only because this picture is so damn cool.




I'll make it short, stay focused. Usually your body is controlling you because your Mind is still asleep. P.S, coffee does not help.



3rd Sign, Problem 3: A subconscious hobby


Ever came back from work, dropped all the bags on the floor, and sat of the computer for hours?

You are not alone.

This behavior is called 'automated-thinking' which requires minimal amount of brain effort, automagically guiding the body to complete multiple easy jobs whilst overlooking small errors

(which causes big errors like looking at a hot chick while sawing some wood causing your fingers to come off).

*Looking right* Holy.. what a nice ass... Moments later......


Ahem. Anyway, the brain has been influenced to believe that your life has always been this way. Downloading porn and music, deleting junk, ripping movies from DVDs, reorganizing files and surfing for so-called 'knowledge'.

But wait

That's a screaming sign at your face that your mind has been hijacked by the internet demons.

But Sam, how do you stop your mind from being subconsciously controlled by something you have no control over?

Oh but there is a way to control the back of your head.

Solution
A while ago, I created a simple equation to combat automated-thinking.

Mind over Body,
Body over Mind.

Where the mind is equivalent to your Morality and Logical Thinking, while your body is equivalent to Desire and Wants.

Whichever one wins will make or break your actions.

Example 1

Not knowing what the fish just happened, the evil god Sam teleports you to a desert and you spend one whole day without any form of help available to you with the Sun whipping your ass black.


I recall a similar event..


By now you are dying of thirst.

Evil God Sam places a bottle of coke in front of you and you run to grab it, but each time you do come close the bottle shifts places and you hear me laughing in the background.

Body: Ah, finally a drink! I'm saved I'm going to take a gulp n-

Mind: No, the person who did this to me is toying around with me. I shall die with my pride. Then I can go to heaven, find him, and Kick His Ass.

Example 2

You're in a car accident and your hand is stuck in the car wreckage.

If the mindset of your Mind wins out, you'll find Reason and Determination to create the Will to cut your arm off and live.

If your body Wants to nurture the image of a normal man perfect with both arms because of fear you'll be looked down upon by society as the guy who has one arm, you're going to just stay there, and you're going to be dead.


Tempting, but I'd rather not be your slave, Internet.


So as long as your Mind is in control to be able to abstain from the internet and drag the mouse to the Logout button (which is most of the time hidden) then only will you have time to complete other things you've been tasked with, and you'll be saved.

Vice-versa, if your Body becomes lazy enough to not shut down the computer and leave it on for days, you'll develop it into an Addiction and then form a Lifestyle.



4th Sign, Problem 4: Facebook



Nic: We're not talking about a demon here,
we're talking about.. the Devil.

People get guiltless pleasure sneaking onto facebook while pretending to be busy at work when the boss comes around

Currently the largest mind-controlling social network on the planet, facebook is the drug you cannot quit.

Even I tried my best and found myself on again just 2 days later.

It is because of facebook, I am addicted to the internet.

Serious shit yo.

The addiction is very strong and you're likely to stay on Facebook for over 2 hours. My facebook addiction is super strong and I stay on for atleast 8 hours leaving my computer on.

This due to 4 main reasons.

Stalking.

You think to yourself 'how can something be SO useful'? all the information of the person you're looking for has already been displayed. whether you're looking at whether the girl you like is single, where she went last saturday and even how she feels. Facebook is Heaven to all stalkers and perverts because can see whatever you're doing in whichever way, unless you know how to work the Privacy button.


'Ooo look at meee'

Showing off.

Fact? We love showing off. Seriously, we're all human. Sometimes we need to release stress and let people hear us out and feel good about ourselves. The Share button shares anything you want to share to your friends, whether it be a photo or a link, and the Like button just makes the addiction 10 times as worse. The Like button was invented mainly to show how many 'fans' which shows the sportiveness to a corporation/organisation/idol/idea and how we love to be stroked by ego.

However, it evolved and everyone was trained to manipulate the Like feature (or to be manipulated by it) by posting bitchy narcissistic seemingly righteous statuses that broadly criticizes certain individuals or groups without saying who it is just to boost their own ego.Slurring someone you know and smearing shit on their faces that you've got a problem with them, but then again it may not be them. The Coward's Method.

Thankfully, these retards who vent their anger don't know how fast the drama spreads and most of the time get

PWNED while trying to gather the most 'Like's


Nextttttt.

Evil. Pure evil.

Peer pressure. Even if you mange to quit facebook, everyone is freaking using it. Your friends will all talk about it and you'll miss the feeling of getting your ego stroked by all the 'Like' clicks from your buddies and eventually get yourself all emotionally gay enough to get back into facebook.

More than 300 million people's minds have been taken.


Damned Apple sure is sinfully addictive.
No wonder Adam and Eve weren't supposed to touch it

Mobile devices. There's a reason why iphones and blackberrys are the best on the market. it either already has all the major social networks such as fucking facebook, twitter and skype intergrated into the phone, or they've made it extremely open to download, these days for free with no charge.

So whether you're walking or taking a shit, the internet has taken over your mind.

Solution?
None. Unless you sell off your iphone/blackberry and settle down for a very less-addictive phone?



I didn't think so.






5th and Final Sign, Problem 5: Games


Before you have time to retaliate reason being your sworn loyalty to the internet gods of fucking DOTA and WoW, let me just break you down. (and I mean doooown.)


Quote of me doing some pwnage:
Me: I have to warn you not to resist with an attempt to place a feeble attack on me, it probably isn't the wisest cho- I pay $15.00 a month to Live my LIFE.
Don't judge me. *crying*
You don't have the right to. You DON'T KNOW what I've BEEN through.
Who are you to judge me?!
You don't know what I've felt.. and what I'm feeling right now!!!!
So, find something better to do with your time, than judge someone you know nothing about.
You can't possibly understa- Look, buddy.

Your 'life' as you know it, is nothing but a lie.

Everyone who know your about gaming addiction spent months and months nagging you then gave up on passing you the idea where the 'world' you're living in was created by someone on top (Blizzard maybe? Hmm?) to suck money from your mama's wallet when your eyes were fixed on the screen for the stupid First Kill achievement.
That sounds familiar..
And you probably look like this.

Sure girl characters are fun to play with, but 80% girl characters are guys.

Okay, I'll just sink in my corner and shut up now.
And no I don't pretend to use girl characters just to hook up with some hot lesbian chicks online.
They might be men too.
Oh god!
See.. I've been there.
(I am very well informed on how addictive MMO [massive multiplayer online] games can be)

I can even do this.
I'm not proud to say it but I've acquired the same skills playing O2Jam for 3 years during my youth and can hit 1000 combos at speed x5 no problem.
The games I've covered until high-level (equivalent to level 100) are:
Ragnarok Online (lvl 99 Transcendent), Fly For Fun (lvl109), O2Jam (lvl 88),
Gunbound (Silver Dragon), Guild Wars (lvl20) and Maple Story (everything looked stupid so I quit.. thank god. Only monkeys would settle down for that kind of stupid standard of a game)
My expertise in games makes me a handsome ultra-nerd. But anyways, fuck that shit.



And his years of youth to keep us aliiiiiive
I didn't learn or get anything new skills from my becoming $300.00 less wealthier buying game items and membership fees crap during my gaming addiction 'hikikomori' era.
My god.. you've gone through what I did, and even got out of it, Sam!
Truth be told, if that damn O2Jam game didn't go bankrupt and shut down, I would still be leeching off my parent's wallet, which makes me feel how lucky I am.
There are others just like you all over the world, waiting to be saved by me.' "

I don't blame you for what happened though.

Most of the time it's all because of school's fault which is why we grow up in such fucked up ways.... andddd because all parents brainwash us into thinking that education is all we need in life.. and a lot more shit you have to know like how diplomas are useless.

....Dammit, it's TRUE. I want my life and girlfriend back. (God I think she's married by now..)
What have I become!

Can't help you there my old Paladin, or perhaps I can. Aside from clicking that, you could sell off your account for a few bucks and work as a damn clerk, but at best just don't let your kid grow up to be a fuck-up just like you.

My ultra-rare items collected over 2 years are worth $10 bucks..

If you're good though, and I mean really good at MMO you could make a living out of it like

Fatal1ty, the number one gamer in the world.
Raked in $500,000 over his gaming career since the age of 7.

Otherwise, stay in your goddamned shell like the comfortable dream provided by Japan as shown below :-


These days the idea of 'heaven' just isn't that far away anymore

Most of the time people just suck at life and retreat to their rooms.. and then come out 8 years later realizing how much time they've wasted. (seriously, at the age of 30? Warcraft? Seriously??)


Solution


If there's one thing more powerful for your Mind to combat your Body's addiction of games, it's thinking about the Future.

Growing up to be old, fat, useless, cost-burdening and a heart-wreching slime for your parents to look at everyday is an easy drive to get you to stop playing games, if you think deeply about it.
