^ This! I can't count how many times I go to put my glasses on my nightstand and I hear the *beep* of the PS3 start up.
Someone told me once that theres a right and wrong, and that punishment would come to those
who dare to cross the line.
But it must not be true for jerk-offs like you.
Maybe it takes longer to catch a total asshole.
