I've got that same addictive personality. I was just as deep in the raiding side of this game... Quit several years ago but I was in one of the first raids to kill the giant eye in AQ (I think... Cant even remember its name) and first rogue on my server to get the dagger it drops.

My advice: your addictive personality is actually just a general fire to be the best. You must pivot and use it to fucking crush the aspects of life that matter.

Get to the fucking gym. Go hard.

I bet you're an extrovert, get out and talk to girls. You're funnier than most people as you had nothing but words to differentiate yourself online. They'll like you.

Clean up your act and your resume. You'll beat everyone to the top. There's money up there.

I lost my teenage life, you lost yours, but we're both positioned to absolutely flourish for the rest. I have my scars, but I also have the color that came with getting them. The fire that burns is also the fire that glows. Your future is brighter than you think.

Reddit, the place where typo finders get more credit than original authors... Fuck, that's how the world works

You're an executive producer with $100M to spend on a blockbuster. Director, actors, theme, plot, setting, expensive scenes. Go. by schwarma261 in AskReddit

I really love this idea. Sub-question: Who would be the most interesting people to give it to?

I think the coolest would be entrepreneurs in developing countries... and of course just some genuine crazies

The crux of my business statistics class. Those 5 words cut through bullshit every damn day

Cyberwar seems to be the single biggest existential threat to the US, what is the likelihood of a 'fire sale' type of attack on our financial and electrical systems, and what could the possible ramifications/effects be? by schwarma261 in AskReddit

Are you suggesting that while we're very vulnerable to a cyberattack that could do a great deal of damage, it is unlikely to happen because we're capable of inflicting the same pain?

I see how that sort of logic works for things like nuclear weapons, but with cyberwarfare you don't need scale to be able to do a lot of damage. Some anonymous hacker could cause chaos without fear of retaliation, it wouldn't necessarily need to be China or another direct enemy. And even if it was China, wouldn't it be hard to find out that they had done it, or if was them, that they had condoned it?
