The king is dead. Long live the king!

*obligatory* And I, for one, welcome our new robotic man-eating furniture overlords.

Videogames definitely help. My roommate and I played one of the burnouts for x-box for a few hours one night. Early the next morning while driving to work, I lost control of my jeep during a rainstorm while driving on an overpass. Thanks to my sweet drifting burnout skills, my instant response was to tap the brake, swing the rear end of my jeep into the wall to bounce off and straighten out. It worked like a charm. Had I not played for hours the night before, I think I would've wrecked, having never faced a loss of control on rain-slick pavement at 80 mph in real life.

What about the 100MB Iomega zip disks? Those were great.

Would be the first to go. Obviously this is all a nefarious plot for China to set up troop-transport systems and invade Europe.

I hope you're a fan of women bringing you sammiches on Facebook. If not, you should be.

So, is it wrong to assume that this variant also makes a person inept at a variety of tasks? Working, shopping, cleaning, cooking--pretty much anything that presents more than a minuscule challenge to the brain?
