Stephen the WOW freakout kid is back and thankfully for us, his success hasn’t gone to his head.  Despite his internet fame, Stephen continues to be the same spoiled-rotten b*tch-ass punk as he was that infamous day his mother canceled his World of Warcraft account. Stay gold Ponyboy, stay gold.

Look out WOW freakout kid, the British are coming and they are serious about their videogames.  Sure you put a remote up your bum and hit yourself in the head with a shoe, but you got nothin’ on your English Doppelganger.  After a 17 hour run on Modern Warfare 2, his gloves are off and it’s just knuckles and wall.

Remember that kid who freaked out about his WoW account being canceled, and tried to stick a remote up his butt? Well, he’s back again, and he’s still just as much of a little sh!t head. But this time, his grandma is around to teach this punkass a lesson. Nothing like a giant wooden paddle to introduce someone to the concept of respect.

After his mother canceled his World of Warcraft account, this kid freaks out like Jar Jar Binks trying to kick a PCP habit. In fact, he get so insanely pissed, his f**king clothes melt off, and he tries to shove a remote up his ass. Seriously. Fortunately for us, his brother had the wherewithal to quickly sneak a video camera into the kid’s room, capturing the entire frightening scene on tape. Unfortunately for the kid, every girl he knows has now seen his giant WoW vagina.

After the number of reported Sexually Transmitted Diseases took a general downturn in the 90s, some of the most common diseases are back on the rise, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. CDC’s report, “Sexually Transmitted Disease Surveillance 2007,” said that cases of chlamydia and gonorrhea, which together had 1.4 million reported cases in 2007, are two infections which are highest in prevalence.

Could World of Warcraft be a College Course?

If World of Warcraft were a college course, would you enroll? David Friedman, an academic economist “who teaches at a law school and has never taken a course for credit in either field” hopes so. He’s laid out a few reasons why he thinks all that copper and iron and mithril and thorium mining you’ve been grinding into virtual booty might be worth an elective credit or two. [TumeRocks]

Boston College Hires Spaz

Yesterday Boston College athletic director Gene DeFilippo ended his job search to replace former head coach Jeff Jagodzinski and named 14-year Boston College defensive coordinator Frank Spaziani head coach of the Boston College Eagles. Was there ever a question Spaz was the right man to take over the B.C. program in the wake of Jagodzinski’s flirtation with the NFL? [Savage Truth]

Two FIT Students Laugh As They Are Nabbed For Selling Coke

They’re not laughing now. The two FIT co-eds accused of selling coke to undercover cops sulked out of a Manhattan courthouse last night after making $5,000 bail.

Just a day earlier, a giddy Christine Scafa, 22, of tony Princeton Junction, NJ, and Mickenzie Dippenworth, 21, of Bel Air, Md., walked gleefully out of the 7th Precinct station house after they were busted, joking with a pack of photographers that they “aren’t Plaxico Burress.” [NY Post]

16 Great Moments In Heisman Trophy Posing History

After a quick search on the internet, BC discovered Tebow doing the Heisman pose – with an infant. That is trust, but this is Superman. It seems that everyone is doing it. The Heisman pose down.

This just happens to be Heisman weekend where all eyes will be on Tebow as he looks to thank God, again. We get the pose down party started with “16 Great Moments In Heisman Trophy Posing History.” [Busted Coverage]

FCC Blames World of Warcraft for College Dropouts

If you’re in the market for more hyperbole and absurd government news, take a gander at this long-winded transcription of a speech by Federal Communications Commissioner Deborah Taylor Tate at the Telecom Policy and Regulation Institute. The speech offers a glimpse into the viewpoints of our governmental policies of helping and fighting technological advancement at the same time. Since, I’m heavy on anecdotes today, when I was a senior in college one of my roommates stayed up for two days to beat Legend of Zelda. In the process, he missed a final exam and told the dean he had a drug problem rather than admit to his video game addiction. He’s now a deputy DA in Florida. [cNet]

Oral Sex Can Get You Evicted!

This is it, buddy. The time has come. You had a good run. Sure everyone likes to have fun now and again, but its gone too far and you need to quit. For you, for your health, for your family.

You’ve got to stop playing World Of Warcraft.

At approx. 9 Million users worldwide, WOW is one of the most popular addictive substances on the planet. That first hit gets you going, and when you level, it’s like, you’re just so free, man. It’s so real. Some people can handle it, can play casually. They don’t care what level they are, or what their mount looks like, or what might be selling at the auction house right now (LINEN IS GOING FOR 2s A STACK BUY! BUY! BUY!). But they aren’t you. You have to quit and your doing it cold turkey. It’s hard, but it can be done. Here are a few tips to help you on your journey to recovery. (more…)

While casual players of MMOs may not see the big deal, it’s plain as day to the rest of the planet: hardcore gaming has taken on a disturbing level of obsession. Players log in ungodly amounts of time playing titles such as World of Warcraft and Everquest, effectively ostracizing them from the outside world. Video games, like watching television and playing sports, are simply a source of entertainment – but when do they become less of a leisure activity and more of an addiction?

Second Skin is out to set the record straight, touching on not only the obsessive gamers – the trailer seems not to point fingers at the games, but at the player’s themselves, which is fair – but the relationships they forge with like-minded people worldwide. These gaming communities are strong, but some turn their players into anti-social shut ins, concerned with gaming and nothing else.

Watch the Second Skin trailer after the jump. (more…)

Video games can be, well, addicting. God knows how many late nights I spent trying get out of that one dungeon, or unlock that one sword, or kept saying to myself, “Just one more level…” Still, I draw my limits on things like World of Warcraft.

In case you aren’t up on the MMORPG (that’s Massive Multi-player Online Role Playing Game) front, World of Warcraft is the most popular MMO out there, with well over six million – yes, million – players.

I know people who are hopelessly addicted, people who have no social life, people who dropped out of school so that they could spend more hours playing Warcraft. So when I read about a married couple of six years that divorced because of this game, I could only say one thing: WOW. (more…)
