Happened to me the first (and last) time I entered some kind of MUD. A guy gave me some mushrooms, next thing I know I woke up lying on the floor of my former flat some hour or so later.....

Scary.

Bottom line: MUDs? Don't.



Eek, but -23 degrees is a wee bit cold indeed.

@Mira: Try RyanAir, 40 euros for a one way trip to Stansted airport near London, UK from Tampere, Finland.

Yes. Haven't you heard of drug abuse in MUDs? Little did I know that it affected the user in his real life... (yes, it *was* that scary!)

How does that work? It's a game and you eat mushrooms? Sorry, but this must be the first time I've heard of MUD.

*goes to Google*

MUD
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about a type of online computer game. For other uses of the word "mud," see mud

In computer gaming, a MUD (multi-user dungeon, dimension, or sometimes domain) is a multi-player computer game that combines elements of role-playing games, hack and slash style computer games, and social instant messaging chat rooms. Typically running on a bulletin board system or Internet server, the game is usually text driven, where players read descriptions of rooms, objects, events, other characters, and computer-controlled creatures or non-player characters (NPCs) in a virtual world. They may interact with each other and the surroundings by typing commands that resemble a natural language, usually English.
Granted, it was more of a scary coincidence. I was just about typing "eat mushroom pizza" (yes, I think it was a funghi pizza and I *think* I was about to type something like that), and then I.... somehow.... passed out. First time that ever happened to me and the first and last time I ever entered a MUD.

Still can't get over the -23 degrees, though.

England? New York? Pfft! Try Bessemer, Alabama. It's world-renowned as "The Armpit Of The Universe".

I just remembered. During my train trip last Saturday night, a heavy luggage bag fell and struck my head. I had a bad headache that evening, but nothing serious. Could it have anything to do with me feeling funny today?

Maybe I should just go for a check up... if it gets any worse.

I think you're right. I'm gonna call it a night, anyway. I really do feel peculiar right now.
