Minutes of the Sonyholics Annonymous meeting 9/12/00.
Dr. Boy:
Firstly, there are apologies from Ive Commonsense-fromacerialbox and Stu Pid-richkid.
Now, I would like you all to meet the latest addition to our group, Mr. PS2lover. Would you like to introduce yourself now please, like we reheased.
Mr. PS2-lover:
My name's Shadwell, and I'm a Sonyholic.
It all began one christmas time a few years ago, when I asked Father Christmas, in my youthful optomisim, to bring me a little grey box. Instead of the anatomically correct rabbit toy I wanted, I got a Playstation, giving no thought to the fact that a bunch of elves in an old fashioned toy factory could have vomited a better present, I put in the shiny circle that seemed to fit and stumbled across a button that lit up when I poked it with my action man. Ever since then due to the lack of anything to compare the bright moving colours to, I've been bashing my joy stick in front of my tv late into the night (I tell my parents I'm just watching channel 5), and I've ordered a PS2 because I have, as my laughing friends who kick me put it, more coin than brain cells. My christmas present should arrive in may some time, and I understand I'll still be able to stick my well thumbed old pleasure... er... joy sick into it. However, since placing my order I've been fortunate enough to play on N64 and Dreamcast, and find myself in a bit of a pickle. I've come to realise how much pants my old Playstation is, and I don't think the new one will be any better, but I'm too proud to admit it in front of my friends who spit at me, that I've wasted my money not once but twice on a deeply inferior product, so I tell them numbers off web sites which I don't really understand, hoping they won't either.
So, I came here hoping to break the trend of stupidity, and stop myself from wasting let more of my money. Please, help me now, before I buy shares in Chocolate Fireguards inc.
Dr. Boy:
Please, you're a lost cause. Go forth and talk about your future ornament with pride, while the rest of the world laugh behind your back if you're lucky, in your face if you're not.
This concludes today's meeting.
