Warcraft Addiction

The following video is a World of Warcraft player freaking out because someone pranked him by changing his password. As I point and laugh, I must admit, I have played World of Warcraft in the past, but never nearly to the point of anger or addiction. However, I have been quite addicted to other games in the past and while I can somewhat empathize with this guy's frustration, his reaction to the prank is clearly unhealthy and was obviously predicted to some degree by the prankster. Personally, it's my humble opinion that this burly nerd should consider something a bit more constructive to put his energies into, like shredding old documents, pissing off philosophy experts or helping old ladies beat up muggers.

Alaskan SWAT Team vs. Teen Pizza Thieves

As if Alaskans don't have enough of a nincompoop reputation to live down after electing and supporting Sarah Palin, apparently their police can't handle a stolen pizza without calling in a SWAT team.  According to the Associated Press, Anchorage Police say a plot to steal a delivery man’s pizza warranted use of a SWAT team. The police spokesman says a man trying to deliver a pizza order this weekend was confronted by a guy with a gun and a stick, and then three other young people attacked him from behind, grabbed the pizza he was delivering but ran away without taking his money (wow...genius). The delivery man then followed one of his attackers to a home where police arrested her. The other suspects then barricaded themselves somewhere in the home, prompting authorities to call in a SWAT team that took care of the rest.  

Yes folks, SWAT to deal with teenagers stealing pizza. Hmmm... Is there a way to get their oil without keeping the state? :/
