29 hell, if you're over 12 and still playing ROle playing games,
drooling over Lara croft and virtual babes, then it's pathetic. Like
that online suicide ring. The guy was depressed because he didn't have
a girflriend. Gee, well maybe if he bathed, got out of his basement,
and had a conversation with a woman outside of a chatroom he could
possibly have a relationship?
IT's like women over the age of say, 16, who have bedrooms stuffed
with dolls and stuffed animals. And sleep with them! I confess, I have
one cute stuffed animal, a lamb. It was a gift. BUt I don't sleep with
it! I'm hoping to do better, frankly.
