Yes, Mr. Sivley, how right you are. I was blind to the entrapment of the harlot that is the console. I now rededicate my life to the PC.
Only $29.95 for your book? What a steal. In Memory of Petey [Dave] Time:11:47 AM Tuesday, February 03, 2004
Welcome Dave. Please take a seat. My name is Steven Sivley and I am the author of the well known book WASD: Reclaiming the PC Gamer.
For years, the PC was the dominatrix of the gaming world. None could stand before her, with her Super VGA, MIDI music, and often custom control options. I was once where you all are now. That painful place where you love your consoles, and you know that they love you. But do they? Do your consoles give you power, or do they give you only the option to follow the set of rules designated in the cartridge? One of you mentioned the black button. Useful, it may be, but it is only another trapping. You can never make that black button more than what it wants to be. The PC gives you complete control. In Memory of Petey [Steven] Time:2:45 PM
Hi everyone. Um, I'm new here, my name is Dave. Anyways, I've been off xbox for about half an hour now. I know it isn't much but it's a start, right? It really all started about a two years ago, and we played Halo at a friend's house. I just couldn't stop. They literally had to drag me away. I thought I was doing pretty good and then we got an xbox in our home last year. Hold on, hold on, I'm sorry. (wipes eyes) Okay. Well my PC gaming life really went downhill from there. (long pause) It ruined everything, I just... I need that controller in my hands, you know? It's gotten to the point where I can hardly even use the keyboard any more. The vibrations. I need the vibrations and the triggers and the two joysticks and the d-pad. I'm also a sucker for the black button. Damn that black button to change grenades! My family is all in pieces, and I just don't know what to do, but you guys give me hope. With your help I know I can beat this! Thank you all. Thanks. Thank you.

So I went to this other church's youth group last night, and it was alright. I kinda already knew the kids and stuff, so it was fun. The funny thing was that when we seperated into groups for prayer, the group I was supposed to lead was comprised entirely of girls, none of them older than fourteen. Awkward, you say? I agree.
