Jesus Christ, honestly, this game is perhaps the worst incarnation of addiction ever invented - unlike drugs, which affect you physically, you get high, this affects you mentally. You get hooked by getting a free demo, what the hell eh? it's only $2.00... Then you play... and you don't stop.
It essentially awards you for running around in an imaginary world, whilst your addiction grows IRL <- Wowspeak. You are engrossed with beating this thing. You are rewarded a piece code, are accepted by new friends (all addicts by the way) Oh and did I mention these rare items are rare - As in it's like gambling like a slot machine, you're playing for a chance to acquire a rare item in the game - which may or may not drop in a certain location. So essentially, every minute you waste is a a few cents given to Blizzard the Company.
The addiction is hard to beat, because you become engrossed with trying to hit the level cap. It honestly takes 48 hours - 2 weeks of not playing to jump start you back into real life... You'll come to realize that in WOW you were essentially doing four things over and over, without ever really advancing. Buyer be ware, you will become addicted.
NOTE:
Methods for escaping addiction (A Guide from personal experience):
1. Run out of Money - but still can't get fix, you either do something desperate or illegal. If you still need fix go to private server.
2. Play until something breaks and stop.
3. Stop playing.
Literally, you need 48 hours for the withdrawl to settle.
Most WoW gamers lose touch base with their real life. And need to find it. Playing on a Private server will speed up the addiction process resulting in:
- Finding out how quick the game can be
- How useless it is/Monotonous.
- Ultimately Saved Time (you level faster so instead of wasting a year to hit 60 you do it in a week.)
Also I should mention, that the only people who don't bash WoW, you lay anti claims to those who are against WoW, are World of Warcraft Players themselves, and thus addicted. They cannot see what they are becoming, ignorant to everyone's help and what really is going on.

My friend had an 89 Average and was a shoe-in for an Ivy League University... He got World of Warcraft... He dropped out of applying, and lives at home with his parents. He has 5 Level 70's...
HM: "What the hell do you guys do?"
MW: "We play World of Warcraft, why what do you play?"
HM: "I play a little thing called real life..."
*MW and the WOW nerds watch, angered*

Simply the coolest investigator in Miami, Horatio Caine is more than a man, he is a way of life with five basic rules:
1. Stand with Hands on hips
2. Place sunglasses on for dramatic effect, then remove them, and repeat (applicable inside as well as out)
3. Never fully address people by looking them in the eye, you're too cool for that.
4. Have a dramatic pause in your speech.
5. Shoot first/45 Degree turn/walk out of camera frame.
This is taken from the fact that in every episode of CSI MIAMI, Horatio will do most of these things, and is a badass at being cool. It all works by combining the first four in the first few minutes of CSI MIAMI, in which Horatio will give a witty one-liner about a dead body. Afterwhich abruptly comes in the WHO "We don't get fooled again"'s scream of YEEEEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

HORATIO CAINE: "You don't spend a thousand dollars on clothes... that you're never gonna wear..."
YEEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
FRANK: "What are you going to do?"
HORATIO "I... am going to get to the truth."
YEEEEEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
YELINA: "this time it was in a public place."
HORATIO: "So they brought the war to us and we..."
Horatio turns 45 degrees.
HORATIO: "Are gonna take it to them."
YEEEEAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
FRANK: "It means we got a drive by."
Horatio puts sunglasses on
HORATIO: "Drive by... Miami Style."
YEEEEEAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH
FRANK: "The Jury only had one week before deliberations"
HORATIO: "No need now... the verdict is in."
YEEEAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
FRANK: "They call it speed dating. Only cause our victim had 15 dates."
HORATIO: "You know what they say Frank... Speed kills."
YEEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
ALEX: "You don't fall three storeys get up and run away."
Horatio puts sunglasses on.
HORATIO: "You do... (looks up) If you've got something to hide."
YEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHHHH
COLEMAN: "I don't remember anything."
HORATIO: "Okay, listen um... I don't want you to worry about it Mr. Coleman... because I..."
Horatio puts sunglasses on.
HORATIO: "I'll be you're memory."
YEEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
FRANK: "Friends say she came to drink mojitas and catch some sun."
HORATIO: "Well it looks like..."
Horatio puts sunglasses on.
HORATIO: "something... caught her."
YEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HORATIO: "So we had a victim who started the week big man on campus... and ended it... dead on arrival."
YEEEEAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
FRANK: "No matter how you cut it, Horatio, divorce sucks."
HORATIO: "Frank..."
Horatio puts sunglasses on.
HORATIO: "it's a killer."
YYYEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
FRANK: "She was caught in the cross fire."
HORATIO: "That's what happens when worlds collide."
YEEAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
FRANK: "It was a mob hit, Horatio."
Horatio puts sunglasses on
HORATIO: "Yes, and it's time to hit back."
YEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
FRANK: "The verdicts in."
HORATIO: "The verdict is in..."
Horatio puts on sunglasses.
HORATIO: "...but the jury is out."
YEEEEEEAAHHHHHHHH
GRINGO: "Lieutenant Caine."
HORATIO: "You help me, and I'll help you."
GRINGO: "You're already dead brother."
Horatio shoots the Gringo dead.
HORATIO: "Join the club."
YYYEEAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Honourable mentions:
1. Horatio gets in bomb-armed SUV, and with four minutes to spare, drives to the beach, takes off his sunglasses. Steps out and, slowly, walks away from the SUV. As he places his sunglasses on, the SUV explodes into a massive ball of fire and rubble. And Horatio says, "Burn, baby, burn."
2. Horatio steps out from an ambulance, as three hitmen has been sent to kill him, as he emerges from behind the ambulance, he shoots two hitmen before they can open fire, the third runs away. As one lays in agony he tries to raise his gun.
Horatio calmly instructs, "Stay down..."
The guy doesn't listen.
Horatio, repeats, "stay down."
The guy doesn't listen.
And without even looking at the guy, Horatio shoots him, while continuing his walk.
3. In the Season 5 Premier, RIO, in slow motion and to the song "We Don't Get Fooled Again" by the Who (also the shows theme but extended for this version) Horatio shanks Riaz, in cold blood. Coolest. Murder. Ever.

The realization that summer is coming closer to an end. During the last week of Summer you try and cram everything from the list in, but most likely miss. Often Summertime Blues occur during the days preceding labor day, and as such mark a saddening time on a persons' life - this is because after labor day basically summer is over. Everyone after labor day returns to their prior engagements such as work or school. As we know, summer is the best season because you can do nearly everything and nothing. There is no official cure for the summer time blues, as it's inevitable.
The only way to temporarily mark the occasion is to party hard on the night of labor day, and try to cram some things from the summer list in. Also re-enacting something you did to kick-off summer helps or you can just reassure yourself that next summer is coming soon.
Also generally the only people who like going back to school during this time have had very bad summers - they did nothing, so they're summer haters. It's like being a gay kid in a hick town that you have to go to in the summer or a hardcore gamer whose had nothing or no one to go outside and play with, they can't wait for it to be over.

Jim: What's wrong?
Frank: It's. It's Summer you know?
Jim: What?
Frank: Well it's basically over and-
Jim: And you got the Summertime blues.
Frank: Yeah.
Frank: It's. It's Summer you know?
