Farmville

I don’t understand why anyone would not ‘play’ this ‘game’. You probably already hate it, because cunts like me have flooded your wall with bullshit posts about how I want you to be my neighbour, or how I’ve found fuel. I do that, because it gives me 0.01% more free shit for my farm. And you have now blocked the application.
Free shit. That’s clever, isn’t it? I percieve that everything in Farmville has a real life monetary value. Which it does. A value entirely created by Zynga, the game’s devs. Well done! I haven’t actually given them any money yet, because (as someone said to me recently) it feels like cheating. But actually, I fucking love Farmville and want to give them some cash. I just haven’t found something I can buy that is completely and utterly worthless in the game yet. It’s like they’re *too* clever.
I started playing because it hit iPhone and I didn’t want my daytime productivity to take a hit. That’s me, I’m professional. But they tricked me! There’s some fucking mental high level shit going on here, because although you can do pretty much everything to your farm from the app, there’s a ton of free shit you can get only on the app, some you can get only from your browser toolbar and some you can get only from logging in via facebook. So now I’m fucking. I’m in on this shit 24/7, farming fucking cupcakes and raspberries and wheat and HOLY SHIT I FOUND SOME FUEL, which means I can plough the ground slighty faster, and OMG I FOUND AN EGG! Which gave me a chicken, which in turn gave me a 0.05% better chance at finding more eggs. Soon I’ll be earning eggs and chickens every second! But WHY? How many more fucking chickens can a man need?
Clicking things - I fucking love it.
