...ya... it's not just time (which is an important thing) but also money... where would have find the time and money to socialise? $5,711 annual subscription and $1,500 for the expansion (and that's USD too)... forget dining out with your friends (or a date!) at a restaurant and catching a movie in the cinemas... as per liegeprime's sig pic, he'll be living off instant noodles!! (O_o)
I know some people who have similar set ups to this - not quite as extreme, but they do have multi computer rigs with a massive mainframe in their house. Lessee... their bath-tub was full of toilet paper rolls and the kitchen was full of pizza boxes... I don't think anyone had ever actually cooked anything in that kitchen.
Toy collecting is an expensive hobby, but it isn't necessarily as time-demanding as gaming.
But on the other hand, at least he's enjoying the money he's spending I suppose. I saw an episode of Simpsons last night where Bart took up coin collecting and he and Homer finally acquired a really rare Kissing Lincoln coin - only to stick in an album and put it on a shelf never to be seen again. Reminds me of people who buy Transformers, stick them in a box and shove it in storage seldom to be seen again. That's why I like displaying and playing with my toys as much as possible - I wanna get my money's worth damnit!!
