On Monday night I was lined up for the midnight release of Starcraft 2. I thought I’d beat everyone to the punch and show up at 8pm but it seemed like the Koreans were devoted to being the first ones to get the game. However I was in really stupid point of the line where every passerby on the street was asking me what this line was for. When I answered it was for a game I could hear them laughing at us. Laugh all you will, but I actually left my house and was in public, can’t call me that big of a loser. Eventually I got angry and started answering that we’re waiting for Twilight or the new Justin Bieber album.

But in reality how pathetic is it to wait in line for a video game? Well video games fall into my interests so it’s not like I’m wasting my time. I line up for concerts in order to be at the front, I line up at Wonderland in order to ride some 30 second ride, and I line up at Tim Hortons in order to get my morning coffee. What’s another line going to hurt me?

Now if you excuse me, I’m going to line up for the iPhone 4.
