Haha, you would think so, right?

But people can be strange with what they fixate on.

[aubins]

... is this a modern thing? It sounds like you have so much more to fixate on that I can think of.

[ like your vending machines, and your fridges, and your cell phones, and your televisions, and your movies and your-- ]

[dotcom]

I don't think it's only a modern problem, but it has definitely gotten worse with it. It'll probably continue to get worse, too.

[aubins]

That's a cheery thought.

[dotcom]

Severe dependency is usually a mood killer.

[aubins]

Yes, I'm getting that impression. Like something out of the opium den without actually taking the opium.

[dotcom]

Well, let's hope that something doesn't show up here that people actually are obsessed with.

[aubins]

What sort of things would those be? I mean we have... movies and those video game things already. Are those addictive?

[dotcom]

In theory, yes, but...

[ he wonders how to word it. ]

I think it would manifest in ways that aren't too usual for you.

[aubins]

...

I wonder if someone here's going to get addicted to murder.

[dotcom]

Don't jinx it.

[ ... ]

But they do say that sometimes once you've done it once or twice, it stops bothering you.

[aubins]

To a point, maybe. But if you get so used to killing no part, or situation involving it phases you, then I think that's more worrying than anything.

[dotcom]

Well...

Let's hope that there aren't too many people here who fall under that category.

[aubins]

Here's hoping.
