You Know You're Addicted to Video Games When... by Weyzza on 02-12-2005 at 10:04 AM

Your wife tells you that you are, and you two kids;
Mario, and Sonic; agree with her.

Whenever something bad happens you reach for
the pause button.

You can microwave and eat a pizza pop using only
your feet.

You've spent so much time playing Tony Hawk Pro
Skater 4 -- you actually taught youself how to
skateboard.

You've worn out the buttons in the elevator of your
apartment.

The only joystick you play with anymore is
plugged in to your Xbox.

You've decided you won't go outside anymore due
to the 'tacky graphics, poor sound and low
playability.'

You've moved your PS2 into the bathroom -- just in
case you make it to the next level on Vice City.

Your hands are so gnarled from gripping the
controller, you can't even tie your shoes.

You ask your doctor how many lives you have left.

You actually get these jokes and pass them on to
other friends who are addicted to video games.


Not true for the last one :p

If you take notes and pay attention and look at the game in great detail I am sure you could learn how to skate. :^)
