What did you spend your hours wasting away infront of your computer screen doing before you were decimated by the evil soul of NS?

I was playing backyard baseball as a young lad and actually got schoolwork done, now as a college junior NS is the first thing I check after I check my email.

Don't lie, you check your email on your iPhone, so NS is the first thing you do when you turn on your computer.

The best games ever. But i actually meant being outside and playing neighborhood baseball in my backyard hahahahaha. We had a perfect flat backyard and the woodpile wall across one edge served as the fence and convinced dad to build a mini mound for us
