I would have called in sick to work to stay home and play all day. However my gf isn't working at the moment so i wouldn't be able to play very long anyway.

Well I had no excuses. I had no college classes or work that week. So yeah.

 

If I was in the position, I wouldn't skip school or work for it, simply because there are things I value more than a game.

TELEPHONE: Ring ring.

POXJEDI: Uhoh, better answer it

(Poxjedi turns down the volume on his stereo and continues to play gta 4. He picks up the phone and puts it on speakerphone)

THE BOSS: Hello? Poxjedi?

POXJEDI: Yessir?

THE BOSS: Poxjedi, why haven't you come into work the past two days? Everyone at the office is very worried about you.

POXJEDI: Uh, sir, I couldn't come because...

(Niko's Infernus bursts into flames and explodes)

POXJEDI: DAMMIT MY CAR!!!

THE BOSS: Your car!? What's wrong with your car

(Niko respawns)

POXJEDI: ...awwwww sh*t, now I'm at the friggin' hospital!

THE BOSS: (alarmed) the hospital? are you alright??

POXJEDI: (coming to his senses) Wha- oh. Um, yeah, but please don't come visit me, I don't want you worrying about me, sir.

THE BOSS: Of course, I wouldn't want to disturb you. You just give me a call when you're ready to come back to work.

POXJEDI: Yessir.

THE BOSS: I'll send around a jar and collect any spare change to help pay for your bills. I really do feel horrible about this, like it must be my fault. After all, I've really been overworking you the past few weeks, haven't I? I'm very, very sorry about that.

POXJEDI: (Niko steals a helicopter) Hell yes.

THE BOSS: And... and so that's why I've decided to give you a raise. How about 5 percent?

POXJEDI: (Niko starts to rise up in the helicopter up the side of the statue of happiness) ...almost there...

THE BOSS: (almost ashamed of himself) Did I say 5 percent?? Because I really did mean fifteen percent.

POXJEDI: (Niko bails out of the helicopter and lands right on top of the statue of happiness' cup.) Perfect!

THE BOSS: (relieved) Right, we'll work out the details when you're ready. In the mean time you relax, Pox. See you soon.

POXJEDI: (Niko takes out a sniper rifle and zooms in on an unsuspecting security guard at the base of the statue. He blows the guard's head off.) SEE YA, MOTHERf*ckER!!!

I lol'd.

 

I don't use excuses, if people call me to hang out or ask me why did I skipped three days straight at school I just scream "fuc* off motherfuc*er, I'm playing GTAIV!" and we're all set. I'll have a four day weekend in three days, my friends are almost sure to ask me to do something, guess I'll be out of friends pretty soon. Little Jacob is all the company I need catloaf_by_anuj.gif

the other day me mum goes "are you nearly finished yet? thats becoming an obsession." oh well since the game came out the savings i've made on fuel are great.

The only person that lives with me is my girlfriend, and I've just tried to coordinate playing when she's at work. I'm not super-addicted or anything so it's not a big deal, plus I'm probably hitting the mark where I'll stop playing altogether soon anyway.

 

I work at home and for myself so I can pretty much do whatever I want, I guess.

And the latter would be work taking over your life. Provided you aren't a paper-boy, most jobs give about 15-10 days a year of no-questions asked vacation or sick time. And %70 of the time, I don't have any real reason other than it's A) A nice day, B) A sh*tty day, C) I just don't feel like working.

I didnt have an excuse and didnt want one. I know that all of my games and my XBOX360 would be at home when I got there. It aint like the GTAIV disc can walk and run away from you. Skipping responsibilities for a video game = DEFINITION OF LAME. You prolly the same guy who couldnt eat the whole day IV came out and who rushed to the store at 12 o'clock at night instead of just going to Target in regular hours. Yall thought that sh*t was cool, when alotta people who didnt go at midnight were laughing and make jokes at school bout those who did, calling them "nerds". lmao

Agreed 100%. If you miss school, or even worse, work just so you can play a computer game (any computer game, including GTA IV), then you are showing signs of severe addiction and need to change your gaming lifestyle, so it fits in with the rest of your life, not the rest of your life fitting in with your gaming.
