[IMG]http://i.huffpost.com/gen/1177237/thumbs/r-MAN-SICK-OF-XBOX-large570.jpg?6[/IMG] [QUOTE=MSNnow]A New Zealand man under house arrest surprised police when he called them on Tuesday to say he was sick of said house arrest and sick of playing Xbox, and he would rather serve the rest of his sentence in jail. The 19-year-old had already served 10 months of an 11-month sentence, and with a scant one month to go, he "had run out of Xbox games to play." He then threatened to knowingly breach his house arrest if he wasn't picked up and taken to jail. Police obliged, and the now-presumably-occupied man is serving the rest of his sentence in Ngawha Prison. So ... congratulations?

"hey guys I go to jail if I stop playing xbox" and then everyone on every xbox game he owned griefed him until he rage-quit to prison
That's pretty sad to be honest. I could find more things to do around the house than play Xbox. Read maybe?
Why not do something productive? Learn coding or something like that.
What can you do in a jail that you can't do at home?

He should have joined the PC master race and this never would have happened... tsk tsk..

Guess he wont be buying the Xbox One!
Is it bad that I have the same problem with my steam games and I'm not even under house arrest
Wow how did he even hold out the first 10 months
[QUOTE=Robber;40940976]Why not do something productive? Learn coding or something like that.[/QUOTE] coding is hardly a valid replacement for social activity
I wish I was under house arrest
[QUOTE=meppers;40941346]I wish I was under house arrest[/QUOTE] Why? I can't think of any reason why you'd want that.

[QUOTE=joh;40941075]What can you do in a jail that you can't do at home?[/QUOTE] there's more socialization in jail, mostly because there is little else you can do in jail besides socialize. a month in jail isn't very much at all. i don't blame him taking the sentence instead of serving house arrest. i wouldn't serve house arrest under most circumstances anyways since it's so fucking expensive($250 a day or some shit).

Not to sidetrack this, but programming isn't for everyone. For those with the temperament and patience (and have been [I]introduced to it correctly[/I]), it can be amazingly fun and satisfying. That being said, the way it's usually taught can easily make it a living hell to work through. No matter how much things you can do in your house, if you don't have social contact it will probably become boring. We need people, it's part of the human condition IMO. ^ "It is said that debugging is ten times as hard than the programming. Therefore if you program something as cleverly as you can you logically aren't smart enough to debug it"
What comes around goes around, we all had it. ^^
