Recent studies (no link unfortunately) show that gaming actually improves your eyes, something that has to do with improved contrast if I remember correctly. Damaging your eyes due to gaming or whatever is a myth, however crazy it looks as odin does, it's good for you.

i wonder if it is because you are strengthening the muscles? Either way... I don't think I could sit that close. I'd feel like this

[Show spoiler]

Q? · 09-02-2010, 01:42 PM

Haha, I'd never want to sit that close however awesome it may be. I wouldn't want to be an easy target for my friends

I'd also recommend a chair with back support. . . I'm feeling old.

I find that really hard to believe, since when I go on 20+ hour gaming sessions it tends to blur my vision a bit and also give me a little nausea.

You can't be feeling that old... I thought the same thing too. And i'm not old... thoughts then traveled to... hmm... if he sits hunched over like that all the time i wonder what the increase is on his chances of developing a hunch on his back.... lol

Probably about the same as MaCruz's when he's crouched down in the dog house wearing the cone of shame.

LeAnn · 09-02-2010, 04:10 PM

Thats why you have to take him for regular walks on the leash. This way he can get the proper posture back.

The first is a pic I posted about 6 months ago of my brand new, 5 day old, baby daughter.

I thought I would post another of how she has grown and how we like to spend our time.

LeAnn · 09-07-2010, 04:26 PM

Congratulations on the new baby girl!!!!
