Cynthia

Actually he walked right by my room once with me and Kayla snuggling, and I swore he was going to notice but to my surprise he looked directly at us as he walked, and didn't even so much as hint that he saw us there.

No joke, I could probably undress my girlfriend right in front of him and he wouldn't notice.

It's not so much that as it is that some people just can't handle video games. Some can, some can't.

I've tried it. He doesn't even listen to me, and my parents refuse to accept something is wrong.

Well due to the reasons stated above, I think it was irresponsible of my parents to allow him to have the gaming console, as he clearly is unable to detach himself from it to realize there's an outside world...

Well I'm also concerned about how much those games control his life. I brought over about three girls to our house before, two of which were single, and one of which was interested in him. He literally did not even look up to say hello. He literally sat in the glow of his game and responded with a grunt. Even after they attempted talking to him. He shows no interest in men either. I understand some people are just non-sexual people, but he shows no interest in even interacting with people. When he plays his games he never talks to anyone about anything besides the game, and half the time he's just yelling at them. He never had any friends at school either, and all he talks about are his first person shooters. If I ever so much as try to talk to him about anything else, he literally falls asleep...

He may has possibly been commanding me to make him toast, but I doubt it, not at this time of night.

So I was walking into the room where my brother set up his Xbox 360. I decided I wanted to play Fallout 3 again, so I asked him politely if I could play when he was done. There was a short pause. After some time of silence I figured he had not heard me, so I asked again. This time he simply tilted his head a slight bit as he gazed at the glow of the screen, still not letting a word escape his mouth. At last I ask a third time more prominently, "excuse me, Anthony, do you mind if I play after you're done here?" I made it as clear as possible to prevent me from having to repeat myself a third time. Anthony did not even glance an eye in my direction and responded with, "toast..." I think he's been playing far too long...

Sure Gatrie has made topics in the past that make him sound very miserable, but there's been FAR worse, and this topic really would have to be put at the lowest level of severity for that.

Okay this is not to insult you Gatrie, as I think you know this as much as anyone, but I think this is relevant to the point that Shuuda is trying to make. So no offense to you. Shuuda, you're wasting your time, as obviously he isn't going to listen or change because of you, as much as you or I would prefer not to see such eyesore topics. Believe me I understand how annoying they are and I'd like them to be gone too. The fact of the matter is though that Gatrie isn't even that popular here. His misery and "attention whoring," probably won't even concern many. His significance on these forums is so small that almost none of the users will notice a positive change in his attitude. By acknowledging it publicly you're drawing more attention to him, and making him look more pathetic than you already believe he is. Since you're point is to tell him to stop being pathetic, you're really defeating your own purpose. Taking this to private would have been the smarter choice on your part. You're making his, "attention whoring," worse as you're providing attention to him.

Well for the record, the "From" section of your profile is for where you actually live, not where you were born. It can be rather misleading.

Well Shuuda says he lives in England, what country do you physically live in?

I thought you both lived in the UK...

Let's not use that word shall we?

My girlfriend and I both find it adorable, hardly erotic though. Romantic sometimes at best if you exclude a majority of the fetish stuff.

The Action Replay Max DS is a cheating device from Datel that allows users to modify the game values and even hex edit the entire game. When combined with the more powerful, Action Replay Duo Max DS/SP they are able to upload their games onto their computers and modify the game even further. Most just use the Action Replay Max DS and its standard codes, but most get private codelists from hackers who make codes specifically so they do not get detected by Nintendo while online. The Action Replay Max DS is available is almost any electronic store that sells the Nintendo DS, so it's easy to see how people get them. With the exception of the Action Replay Duo Max DS/SP, which was discontinued and is extremely hard to find. I've fiddled with both for offline play when I was bored with Pokemon Diamond. The Duo cost me a good sum on E-bay though...

It's one thing to not care, let's not encourage it though...

Well who knows how to ruin anything you earn in life better than yourself? Also, there's no point in everyone else being happy if you're miserable. Your attitude affects others around you.

He who can defeat himself, has the power to slay the greatest foe he shall ever have.

Nothing is stopping you from caring you know.
