      Hey, could’ve been worse. At least she was addicted to Tetris, not a raging alcoholic or addicted to meth or something.

        Very true! Haha

        When I was around 22 or so, my mom won a free tablet from a contest online, and got this absolutely terrible android tablet, even by then current (2012) standards. But it did have angry birds. She played so much angry birds that it had noticable grooves in the plastic of the screen from aiming. Lol

        My dad (clean now!) decided to try crack at 40 and spent the next 15 years taking us on a wild ride of addiction and absolutely bullshit. I’d definitely take a game addiction over that. Lmao

          The slippery slope is when a game addiction turns into a gambling addiction.

          Glad to hear your dad’s clean. Hope everything is good for you ❤️

            Yeah, me and mama both share a tendency towards that. I have to be very careful around gambling, so does she.

            And hey, thanks! Yeah, life is swell most days :) Hoping the same for you

              Fair enough, it’s important to know what your potential speed bumps are.

              Glad to hear that things are going good for you. On the whole, life’s pretty good for me too.
