Speaking of which, there is an epic one about Second Life on this \QOTW.
I think it might be too big a fail for even AB to bother with.

OMG
i remember the american case of the couple who got divorced because she walked in on his avatar thing cheating on her avatar thing on second life. they had also met on second life. each of them weighed about 500lbs and clearly could never have roused the energy to have sex in real life.

truly Wrong!

I would take exception to your
stereotypical view of gamers if it weren't still largely accurate.

Envision a typical "mincing" stance

One of the things I said to Crow (after apologising for bumping into him and HOLY SHIT IS THAT MONTY)
was to ask him whether his incredibly limp wrists made it difficult for him to play bass.

My tendons are basically screaming at me from a combination of typing all day, bass-playing most evenings and the urgent need to sneak off and crack one out whenever an attractive lady is spotted (thankfully not a regular problem in my department).

I played my piano this week for the first time in 3 years
I wasn't as shit as I thought I'd be, so that makes me quite happy. I'm also pretty good at cooking/baking and fairly good at sewing/painting/arty stuff etc, so that makes me happy too.

Sadly I probably spend more time idly scratching myself* than I do any of the interesting creative things. I feel kind of bad now for wasting my hands...

Wizardry.
By using careful manipulation of my hands I can create the illusion of having a detachable thumb – many a lady has fallen into a dead faint at such acts of apparent sorcery. Another contortionism that amazes and enthrals young and old is when I use the light from a candle to cast amusing shadows on to walls using only my hams and digits; examples being a bird in flight, or even the head of a wolf.
