I game. Actively. In fact I'm playing "Fantastic Contraption" right now. But I'm very social as well. My ex invited me to a party tomorrow and I'm going. Plan on getting wasted, turning down drunk chicks, then losing horribly at Rock Band. Gods, I'm terrible at rythm games. Between friends, surfing a flooded industry, personal recreation, work, games, sleep has been a rarity. I heard on TV recently thus: "You were goth? How does that work out?" You act depressed; you get depressed chicks." That seems plausible with all things. You act antisocial, you attract the antisocial. Normally following the biggest phallic-hat in the group. A hunt in packs kind of way. Just natural. All I can say is be yourself and you'll attract people who understand you, mainly because you understand them.
The main problem I'm having now is: if I use words with an excess of three sylables rapidly, my frieds start to fade out. I'd get smarter friends but everytime I try they're just so pompous and selfinvolved, that it makes for the difficult times. I understand genious has an unfortunate side-effect of introversion, but come on! But then I look at my frieds who have developed a drinking game around listening to one of my tirades and taking a drink/hit everytime I say something they don't understand. Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to my right.
