Today, I was feeling really good about myself for running and walking everywhere so much so that I was out of breath and panting. Well, until I remembered that I was playing a video game and it was my character that was doing the running around that is. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went running for the first time in a few months. I had what I thought was an asthma attack. When I got home, I realized that it was not asthma, but instead I have gained so much weight that my running bra restricted my breathing. FML
Today, trying to get into shape because I run out of breath after walking more than 30 minutes, I started to hit the gym. Too bad my legs didn’t want to cooperate and decided that it would cause limping-worthy pain for every step I took on the treadmill. FML
Today, I woke up in the hospital. I had apparently overworked my heart so much that I fainted. What caused it? I was playing a racing game on my Wii and freaked out when I won first place. FML
Today, I got so self-conscious about weight gain that I got paranoid about how much my Castle Crashers character was eating to heal. FML
Today, I was feeling really good about going to the gym for the first time. That was until I got so worn out from my “warm up” on the treadmill that I had to go home and spew. FML
Today, after the longest time, I went to the gym. I ran and ran and ran on the treadmill for an eternity, beating myself up for getting so overweight. Then I tripped and fell off, sweating and sobbing for being so useless. When I looked up, I saw I'd been on the machine for barely 2 minutes. FML
Today, I was playing a virtual reality game at a gaming convention. I got so into it that I didn't realize I was screaming and flailing around in. A crowd had gathered to watch my dumbass embarrass myself. FML
Today, I was doing a fitness test. Though clumsy, I managed to spin around a bat then dash across a balance beam, run through some tires, and walk across a log floating in water. Pleased with my performance, I walked to the bathroom, tripped on my shoelace, and bust my head on the floor. FML
Today, feeling out of shape, I went for a jog. I got mugged. FML
Today, I ran out of breath while mowing the lawn. I was on a riding lawn mower. FML

I've been out of breath playing a video game before just by having my heart rate so high. This isn't unheard of and certainly not something to be shameful about.

Perhaps you now have the inspiration to exercise and explore the world as much as the characters do in the games you love so much.

At least you were having fun playing the game! But I suggest getting outside more ;)

Pathetic. You have played video games so long and so hard you cannot tell the difference between gaming online and that thing called reality? Have you ever considered that you are an addict in the true sense of the word and it's not funny one bit? How many countless hours have you spent gaming that you will never get back? You need to give all that stuff to a friend until you get a life.

Gyms cost money. Outside does not. I'd rather excercise outside than in a gym.
