(I'm tired, so let me just repost what I put up on the Black Friday thread.)
WoW is free? Really?
That's how it starts. The first hit is free. It is amazing. You feel like you're on cloud nine. Then you start indulging in it. Spending more and more time on the stuff. Spending more money on it. Suddenly you don't want to hang out with your friends anymore. Or go to work. Or sleep with your girl.
Before you realize what happened, a year has passed. You lost your job. Got evicted. All you have is a laptop and the clothes on your back. Shacking up with your acquaintance's house who just happens to have wi-fi. Then you scrounged enough money to cover the subscription fee. And ramen noodles.
That's how they get ya, son. That's how they get ya.
So you see, like all other items of substance abuse, it's not free. In fact, WoW is perhaps the most expensive item on sale for Black Friday. And not just a price you pay with mere dollars.
