Suggestions for After-School Alternatives to Video Games

For all you school-bound gamers out there, remember: you’re wasting your life away. Here are some suggestions from the friendly people over at Fox News to better your life. Except, here’s the catch–I made a few improvements on their suggestions.
- Design your own clothes so you can get wrapped up in the drug-addled, shallow world of the fashion industry!
- Start blogging, because everyone needs to read about your life.
- Experiment on your pet. Fluffy needs a makeover!
- Why shouldn’t your mother have to clean up after you cook in the kitchen too? Try some new recipes.
- Was the drug-filled world of fashion not a draw? Try the drug-filled world of art. How do you think the Beatles got famous? And the bonus is, artists don’t have to get a job. Remember, when someone asks: Is it art? You answer, “yes.”
- Make Siegfried and Roy your role models. You might have trouble getting the tiger, but those outfits are just around the corner at your nearest 70’s vintage stores. Oh, get cards, too.

Awesome.
“Oh the hilarity”. Does this apply to gamers who are in college? (Or senior years of high school, I can’t convert the education system between England and the US). If so, better get me some of those drugs for my art work….
Joelteon7, you are an artist?
Heh, nope. Bad bad joke. Besides, when you get an E in it for GCSE (no idea what that is the equivalent to in US…I was 16 when I did the exam, if that’s any help) it kinda makes you realise you’re not quite cut out for it.
But the list above (I didn’t bother going to the source, I felt I could pretty much tell what they were going to be) just proves the point that gamers are…actually, they’re people. Contrary to popular belief, it’s a(n expensive) hobby that many people round the world enjoy.
What about WoW though? That’s gt 8 million gamers all drugged up on it :p
