What do you do, read, play or otherwise butt to get away from the woes of the world?

The sweet, sweet embrace of alcohol. I would argue about politics on the internet, but I find this to be less brain damaging.

Mostly video games World of Warcraft, with a dash of toy-collecting (yeah, you heard me) to keep me from going blind.

After Christmas, when I don't have to work so damn much, I'm going to try teaching myself to cook.

Learn to flip food in a pan fast. If you're lazy like me, it means not having to get a spatula - and not having to wash a spatula.

Plus you can show off to people who don't know how to do it, despite being so easy a retard could pull it off.

Alternatively get a spatula so you can cook real food.

My escapism is mental exercise. I play with words and numbers in my head.

Haha, you're boned, you liberal arts pansy. Might as well stay in school for the rest of your life.

Oh, also, I enjoy playing Guitar Hero badly. That's a fun escape.

Putting Soulcalibur IV in the 360 and play with Character customization/training mode. Right now, I'm trying to learn how to play as Mitsurugi using a barely dressed custom character named Calamity.

Road Rage events in Burnout Paradise is good, too.

Or just go law school, if I actually get too concerned about ever pulling in six figs.

Play music, games. Finally getting my life back on track after an incident a couple months ago so finding a good job is one, too. Even if it's frustrating right now.

Pretty much everything or nothing. I am quite adept at shoving my troubles aside and ignoring them.

Of course that will probaby mean that I will run amok after a critical mass of ignored problems is reached.

Day trip ... to Paris, the city, that's in France.

I'm trying really, really hard to avoid any innuendos about a chick named Paris or the city of Paris in Texas.
