Cool Shocking Story

A few years ago, when the big yellow gameboys were popular, a friend came over to mine for a party and played on mine. He played non-stop from about 8 at night to midnight. The next morning he was on it again for 3 hours. He was so pale and sick that he spent the next few days at home in bed. Since then he has had no trouble and does not suffer with epilepsy.

Strange!!!

lol, so your mate came down with a bug - could be food poisoning or just any bad stomach bug. Why would you assume it's related to playing on a gameboy?

I've got a terrible thumping headache & I feel rather sick! At first I though that it may have been those 10 pints I drank last night but Nooooo it all makes sense now! I played a few games of Pro Evo in the afternoon before going out!

There's me blaming the ale when all along it was the evil Box making me ill!
