Healthy UK Man Dies On His Wii Fit

[confernal]

I have never heard of that SADS thing before...now Im frightened

Also a meteorite could kill you and your city at any moment, a madman could be hiding under your bed, a rabid bat could have passed the virus to you via a wound the size of a paper cut, and there's no guarantee that the world is real and exists outside your own mind.

Have a nice day!

Thanks that cheered me up.

This is highly ironic.

Cases like that make me not give a shit about smoking and cancer.

+1. Dieing suddenly like that at 25...scary.

The title made me laugh for a good five minutes. reading the article only extended the laughter.

Next week on "Days of our Lives":

Well it's obvious that his girlfriend and friend were seeing each other behind his back and then concocted a plan to pin this is all on Nintendo.

See? That's how serious Nintendo is about your fitness. Drinking, bad diet choices, and that cute little console gets as serious as a heart attack.

It's only been linked to the Nintendo Wii becuase that makes it 'news worthy'. Otherwise it would just be another random sudden death.

Sideote- SADS also stands for Seasonal Affectability Disorder Syndrome (AKA Winter Depression)

Nope I'm afraid, that's referred to as SAD [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_affective_disorder] (no syndrome attached)

SAD is an ailment of the affluent.

Another case to add to my conspiracy theory that all media is against gaming, because if you offer a TV or newspaper against a videogame in terms of entertainment and attention span, they'll lose.

Reminds me of Bill Hicks and 'the war on drugs'.

'The reasons drugs are illegal, is because the big companies don't want to put Prozac up against marijuana, because they'll lose.'

Not saying he's definately right, but there's a parallel here.

They're all just panicked over the constant deterioration of viewing figures and newspaper sales and need to find a target.
