Statistical Meandering and other such "stuff"

Just an average guy being abnormally average.

I hate being a slave to FarmVille

My life got unexpectedly more boring once our first child was born two months ago. I spend a lot more time sitting on the couch watching Netflix streaming video and surfing the web.  It turns out that facebook has turned into farm book.  I first noticed the devastating degree of addiction all my friends had to farmville and quietly made fun of them.  I slipped into thinking I could try farmville out and prove how stupid it is.

I was wrong.  I got hooked.  This thing is like cigarettes - totally simple yet makes you think you are cool because you are part of the masses doing a mundane task.  I click until my clicker begs for mercy on a daily basis.

Now, I am bored with farmville. Too much adult onset ADD for me.  I decided to tick off my friends and actually spend money on coins, farmville cash and a bot that will manage my farm for me.  I will go to every expense to simply conqueur them all and sit back while they wish they were as cool as me.   World (farmville) domination has commenced.
