Re: Even hackers need a mental vacation!

Please tell me someone has sprayed one green and added a rear fixed NERF cannon for some mini warthog action.

/me starts to wonder if having kids as a means to buy more toys is the wrong idea....

To relax at work I play point and click adventures while data is processing, low stress, nice and relaxing.
They also are pretty low end so can run on my crappy laptop allowing me to keep an eye on my main workstation.
The new Sam and Max are particularly good.

One of these?

I like that idea, since Halo is my recreation. Although I also do a lot of "home improvement" stuff.

Not at all. Plus, they are good for the tax deductions. To be truthful though, wives tend to look at the kids and the toys little different.

I think one person modded one with something like that. The jeep that's in that picture actually sprays water.

Here's what I've been doing lately to relax at home. Modifying the boys Powerwheels Jeep with Headlights, taillights, siren, PA system and Red/Blue Wigwags.

There's an entire forum dedicated to the modifcation of Powerwheels and like vehicles. Glad I'm not the only nutcase out here that does things like this for their kids.

I leave it all on the floor at work.

Lucky, I leave work and still end up seeing it everywhere.


I like to cook and do some really odd stuff that always ends up becoming work later on.

Re: Even hackers need a mental vacation!

I'd say I play Counter Strike Source too much... except for the madness of finals this week. Ugh. But that's my mental masturbation for the most part.

Until I get GTA IV. Mmmmmm...

Re: Even hackers need a mental vacation!

I make wine (when I can), play Drink Tiger Woods, Drink Mario Party, Drink Soul Caliber, Drink the Beer, photography... I draw when I have time. Unfortunately, because of school and my job, "The Trade", as you put it, IS my mental masturbation.
