Re: Hours Played doesn't=Addiction! Thoughts on Gaming and S
You are absolutely an addict and use digital media to escape from whatever fears you have about other people and the world in general. You're missing out on a lot. If you spent even .5% of the time you do on gaming working on internal issues you'd probably be a lot happier and be able to enjoy virtu...

Re: Dumb Commercial
I love McConaughey's recent roles, but that car commercial is really terrible. Has such an elitist tone to it. There's been a surge of car commercials this last year that espouse egotism, elitism, and bragging. It's sad to see really.

Gotham
Solid pilot. I recommend it to anyone especially those who enjoy Batman/Gotham related stories. It is creating it's own version of pre-Batman Gotham, with some new characters and tweaks on origins, but it definitely respects the legacy of the comics and characters. I'll be keeping a close eye on it.
