Unreality

I've always known I possess a certain streak of social awkwardness. I'm also aware that many people possess more of that streak. The cluster I live in at Luther is a textbook example of unrelenting social awkwardness at a level that is almost impossible to imagine. It's weird. What makes it even weirder is their obsession with playing Nintendo Wii. Now, I own an Xbox. I won't say that video games are bad. I like them too. But having an orgasm playing a video game? Screams of ecstasy emanating from a TV screen. Unnatural. And just plain creepy.

What does it mean when in order to have social interaction, you need the aid of such a diverting activity? I really don't know. And that's all I have to say. I just don't know how to deal with behavior like that in college.
