I thought this video is a good learning tool for those of you who may have students who have become too involved with their video games.

In this video, this disgruntled girl was bullied off of the game world of warcraft and she's out to exact revenge.

I think its a good lesson for all of us not to become overly involved in gaming.

Not sure how close to home this is for anyone sane.
Just the same...this kind of moronic behavior is disgusting on many levels...stop the gaming and start exercising.

Here is another link...little easier on the eyes but just as good an example why people should just say no to games Wink

That morbidly obese kid reminds me of a few long-term ESL teachers I've met.

That kid will probably be working at a Korean university in 20 years time.

My thoughts exactly. Not only will she come to Korea, she will probably be way more popular and successful than "normal" teachers.

The kids would absolutely love her. I know I would because I wouldn't be able to contain my laughter in the classroom.

Is that you battle toad? I was at the mall yesterday and I counted at least 20 of your kind. Some were in the pre-battle toad/battle toad/ and post battle toad phase.

Some don't believe in evolution but I can assure you, battle toads didn't exist a mere 40 years ago and now they are an abundance.
