Second Skin is a documentary that follows a bunch of depressing people that are addicted to WoW/Everquest. It really is pathetic how these people allow their lives to be ruined and controlled by this game. One, maybe two couples in this movie would look unassuming walking down the street. The rest are disgusting slobs. A single person in this sees the error of his ways and changes his life for the better, while his cousin becomes addicted to the game as he quits playing. One kid even shot himself in the head at his computer desk while playing Everquest apparently because he fell in love with a dude playing a female character. I can't help but laugh at the idea. Pathetic.

How depressing. I sure am glad you didn't follow this path. Has Joel seen this movie?
