    Sitting in front of a computer screen for 8 hours a day has been proven multiple times in clinical trials to actually enhance your physique in many ways. You can build muscle and lose weight simply by playing WoW all day!

    That's right, kids! Playing WoW makes you forget to drink water!
    And dehydration makes you lose weight!
    Sure, you'll be called pale. But you can laugh at them fatsos that weigh a normal weight!

    BUY WOW NOW. IT MAKES YOU SKINNY.

    But eating fast food while playing WOW negate the factor of dehydration for losing weight?

    Considering the fact that I can warm-up with a seated leg press of 425 pounds, I wouldn't take Manic's words for falsities.

    I am guaranteed to be the laziest guy on OnRPG. Which explains my spam/troll count.

    175 pounds of sexy muscle, HELL YEAH.

    good job leaving the body fat percentage out, but calling yourself sexy...

    and im on the computer for like 6+ hours a day, but can still run XC and soccer and 15+ mile runs, so it isnt bad if you can balance your life with it.

    Yes it is bad.

    You will be wearing thick ass glasses, you will be sitting there on the comp doing nothing. You will get huge, and you will have no exercise.

    You will have no real life friends, only online. That will encourage you to play more.

    Don't play for 8 hours, go hang out with some friends.

    Unless you spend 10 hours a day hanging out with friends, 8 hours on gaming, 6 hours of sleep...

    Don't worry. I play games for 14+ hours a day and have for 7 years (no joke). The only thing that has effected me at all is not having friends but I've never been social and didn't have any before. So as long as you've got friends, go outside once a day and stay social it doesn't matter how much you play.

    Yes I'm fat and Yugtaf is Fat guy backwards.
