WoW addict featured on Tyra: prepare the Tylenol

What happens when a WoW addict who ignores crying babies just so that he can continue to battle in Azeroth shows up the Tyra Banks show? Trust us, its not pretty, and its far from intelligent.

What’s amusing about this featured WoW addict on Tyra Banks‘ show, is that his wife seemingly blames him for ignoring her and implies that he shuns human interaction in favor of his computer and WoW. The thing is, human interaction (despite the veil of avatars and pixels) is what makes WoW so addictive in the first place.

To be fair to the wife, the addict is an ass-hat for leaving the baby crying. And it is appalling that he did  leave her while in labor to “go home and change”, but never did return ‘cos he got stuck playing WoW. However, she should realize that he’s not ignoring her for a game, he’s ignoring her for other people. And if the addict is indeed that irresponsible, why is she still with him in the first place?

Moreover that CD shredding thing at the end was just plain stupid. Of course, that got the audience clapping like sugar saturated toddlers in a playground filled with Happy Meals.

Watch the shredding stunt and the addict in question after the Jump!

Quitting WoW, or any other addiction isn’t as easy, and isn’t as heartwarming, awe-inspiring, affirming, or as “magical” as that stunt Tyra pulled with that shredder.

However, the stunt does make for good TV. Which is what matters to those who watch this show …right?
