Dead Screening

The act of sitting in front of a computer screen and surfing for information and entertainment mindlessly. A more brain-dead type of surfing the internet that commonly occurs at or between the times of 10:00pm and 2:00 am. The information found while Dead Screening is not usually remembered the next day. To come out of Dead Screening is an impossible task until you cannot think of anything more to search, fall asleep at the computer or are disturbed in some way by a partner, power cut or internet crash.

loading screen

Flat, open, fields with no scenery typically located between towns in the Midwest.

The Midwest is in dire need of a server upgrade. Such long loading screens for so little content.

Much like the Massive Effect elevators, the farm land in the Midwest serves as a loading screen between content where you can still interact with the game.
