When I was around 22 or so, my mom won a free tablet from a contest online, and got this absolutely terrible android tablet, even by then current (2012) standards. But it did have angry birds. She played so much angry birds that it had noticable grooves in the plastic of the screen from aiming. Lol
My dad (clean now!) decided to try crack at 40 and spent the next 15 years taking us on a wild ride of addiction and absolutely bullshit. I’d definitely take a game addiction over that. Lmao
My mom got so frustrated at how often I needed batteries for my walkman, my Gameboy, my other toys, and my little stereo I won at the library, that she replaced all of our batteries with a bunch of rechargeables she bought in bulk. All my friends were so jealous
