2. I've kicked servers to death for that
Luckily, I was the ONLY one that could replace them, so I wasn't fired.

I used to have, let's say, a temper :D

7. Only the last part, a game would never piss me off like that, but
Windows has :D

On another note, there was one time I played Quake2 for so many hours straight ( I really lost track of time ) when I stood up after being so 'in the zone' for that long I threw up from motion sickness.

10. We invited one guy to a lan party
and we found out you do not want him to play FPS's. He got into MOHAA and promptly threw up from motion sickness of watching the game.

5. No!
A sweetheart like you? A temper?

So, what combination of medications was responsible for reining in that temper? ;-)

Frankly, I wish I was independently wealthy so I could buy a new computer and destroy it for the fun of it. And the symbolic revenge.

6. THC
Really. It took about 5 tries until it first affected me, and then I dove right into it. I swear the amount of reflection it suddenly provided, coupled with some sort of permanent brain chemical balance shift 'adjusted' me towards lenient side.

I used to be worse. Much worse. Or maybe I just grew up :D
