Guitar Hero is Ruining my Life
Uncategorized January 10th, 2008
So first off, let me say thank you very much for getting me Guitar Hero, co-blogger. It was an awesome Christmas present that I truly wanted. I have had hours of fun galore. Yet it is ruining my life! Every song I listen to, I imagine if it would make a rockin’ guitar hero song. And when I hear the songs from the game, it is all I can do to not start doing an awesomely (lame) air guitar hero along. Now it is creeping into my work life too. After reading about the Devilish Debate to End Church of England, it took more restraint than you might think to only scream “6-6-6! The Number of the Beast!” (which I screech every time I play the Iron Maiden tune) and not put it up on the homepage. Also, I think it is giving me carpal tunnel syndrome. Where is the Hero to rescue me from this game?
On the upside, at least I enjoy the humor of its constant references on TV:

Nice plug, Howard. It’s good to see LifeWire stuff out there rather than just on some white board somewhere : )
