My Social Life



So last night I went on a date (in Grand Theft Auto IV, the video-game) and had a really great time (with a virtual avatar who doesn't exist in any real shape or form). We went bowling (as a mini-game) together at a place down by the beach (which was rendered graphically with very nice detail). Although she was good at the game (since she was controlled by a computer incapable of human emotion) I still ended up winning (because I spend all my time playing video-games instead of interacting with other humans). We took things pretty slow (Probably because Rockstar, the game's developer, got tons of flack for the "Hot Coffee" incident, also you need to level up) and I dropped her off at her house (after driving her car off of some killer jumps) but I have to admit, I still felt a tad disappointed (because all this experience did was make me more excited to go on a real date with a real girl that I can physically be around with and interact with without the added fear of losing points or being shot to death by a gang of Serbian loan-sharks) maybe even guilty (since I know, specifically who I'd rather be spending time with than by myself playing Grand Theft Auto IV). But when all was said and done, I think it was a good time for the both of us (apart from all the gratuitous violence and prostitutes).
