Have you ever played Tetris? Well, of course you have. Everyone have at least once. I used to be really good at it. Used to play for ages. In fact, I used to play Tetris so much that after a while I saw the pieces falling when I was closing my eyes. It was incredibly annoying when I wanted to sleep. I also saw pieces fitting at the end of the margin in books whenever I was reading. "We can have that piece there... this piece can fit in there..." By then I realised that maybe I've crossed some sort of line here from normal enjoyment into fullgrown addiction. I haven't played Tetris since. Well, until yesterday. It's not as much fun as I remember and that made me think. Is Tetris ever fun? I don't think it is. I think it starts with a "might as well do this since I got nothing better to do" and ends with a "only one more line..." after neglecting hours and hours of stuff one was meant to do. This is why I don't play Tetris anymore. That and the fact that I lost my thingie with Tetris on it and I don't like to play Tetris on my pc - it feels like such a waste of time.
