There was a doctor who said to me, "computer games can be addictive". This was after I told her I play games, so she was pretty much implying that I was getting addicted. This was when I hadn't played for over a month due to lack of time from my 9 to 6:30 job.
The same doctor bragged about how she couldn't go about her day without drinking coffee right after waking up.
She said those 2 things within the same 5 minutes.
What's the problem with addiction? An addiction is bad if it harms you. I am addicted to espresso, me family, me little cousins, me dear close friend, the spaghetti me mother makes and so on.
