I once had a 'friend' that i met on a trip to a certain university a couple of years back. He was a nice enough, funny guy but very annoying and had a tendency towards the so geeky its unfunny. I mean, im all for geeky, i own the thundercats boxset for crissake, but thisguy once spent 72 hours straight on World of war craft and could write in perfect 'Leet'.
On a kind of reunion with said friends, he was part of a group, around a year later i find that he has not been out of the house for over three months because he didnt get in to uni and took a gap year. During this time he had apparently not left his seat playing Warcraft exept to eat, sleep and poop.
The guy had gained weight to the point of obese and had permanent sweat patches down his back and inner arms. i also find out that he had been living of coke and doritoes for this three months and had managed to develop scurvy. Bleeding gums, liverspots and a semi regular nosebleed, everything was there.
When we saw him he was undergoing treatment for it and when we went for lunch we, at great humour, found he had to eat baby food as well as citrus fruit for the extra vitamin c.
Needeless ot say after that we just left him to his warcraft.
Apologies for length girth and general volume.
