Hi, my name is Lara and I'm a Wii-dow.
No one in my house will talk to me; they're all obsessed with playing the Wii.
It is not *that* great.
It's not witty and charming and wearing commendably butt-hugging pants.

Screw you, Nintendo. Screw you and your fake bowling and your fake boxing and your "nunchuks". I"d like to see you chuk anything real.

5. We'll need a picture of the Wii and the butt-hugging pants to make a decision on this matter

7. Time for some wii-hacking
:P
(just a little internal remote-controlled on/off switch, that's all.)

Or go for the full, direct attention-getting and shut the circuit-breaker off for the room the game is being played in. I certainly would do that! :D

8. They'll get over it. I was a Wii-dow for a few months, but it passed.
Now it goes in waves. Take advantage of the freedom and go do what you've always wanted to do but couldn't because they were underfoot.

9. Hi Lara. I'm MG and I'm an X-Box widow
Lost my husband and my son in one swell foop. Driving games, mostly, but Jr. also loves Lego Star Wars, Lego Batman, and Lego Indiana Jones. They're zombies.

At least Mr. MG bought me Toast for my Mac, so I can transfer shows from the TiVo onto my laptop. I sit behind them on the couch, watching those shows, Northern Exposure (entire series on DVD), surfing DU, and basically vegging out. It's not so bad...

10. Do they have Animal Crossing?
If so, have them PM their friend codes to me so we can visit each other's towns! :woohoo:
