[quote name="serial malcontent"]<a href="http://rt.com/news/223615-taiwan-man-dead-internet/">here</a>. [quote name=some news hole]It’s not the first case of Internet-addition death in Taiwan this year. On New Year’s Day a 38-year-old man died at an Internet cafe in New Taipei City after five days of non-stop video gaming. Police added that other customers showed little interest in both cases as they were absorbed in their own Internet world. “We went inside to cordon off the tables and had investigators there to gather evidence. Only then did the other patrons realize that someone had died, but they still showed no concern and kept playing their games. We were amazed at their nonchalant attitude,” a police spokesperson said.[/quote] These are the people in your hobby. I'm hoping it's just taiwanese blockheadedness so we can make racist jokes but I think we all know this is the very fabric of the world that spawned doritospope.[/quote]
