Fat

We consume amusements with such dedication that the only word for it is gluttony.

Traditional gluttony leaves you pretty fat and slow (Shut up, mirror!). Amusement gluttony does too--when was the last time you heard somebody singing or whistling for themselves, outside a choir? (Singing along to the radio counts.) Acting for fun at parties--even charades? (LARPing counts.) Does the correlation between Facebook use and loneliness involve a vicious circle?

I do sing along to the radio sometimes. Without autotuning.
