If you can relate, you know how stunningly aware you when gaming after a joint. You do stuff even the game developers never knew players could. Hours whiz by while defeating Titans, swinging around Gotham or beating the living daylights out of online opponents. The fatalities scare me a bit, though. And suddenly, it's 4 a.m., and you have to be at work at 6.
But this comes with the territory. Video games and weed are enormous time sinks where entire hours seem to vanish mysteriously. The hocus-pocus behind this logic boils down to their addictive nature. On one hand, you have video games. Video games are your brain’s ultimate crush. Nothing will get your eyes off the screen, or your hands away from the controls. Your brain simply won’t let you. It’s as if it won’t listen to you until you find and vanquish the Joker. That’s all that matters.
Weed, on the other hand, presses all your pleasure buttons. Tons and tons of endorphins course through you. You feel like you’re in a Nirvana within a Nirvana, and every single of your fantasies are there to explore. Enough said.
