when you stare into a black hole all day, because you believe you can discover all secrets of the universe

when you mount solar panels on your car, so that it doesn't consume fuel while standing still

You forget to pay your taxes " 'cause the AI's supposed to take care of that."

I suggest a CPA slave. As good as an automated AI. Better really, because you can behead them if you don't like your return.

You played too much DW if you refused to buy a new house because your wife says there's no porn, beers, or steak to be mined in that house.

You played too much DW if you crowd the offending person when that person orders to move your butt out of the room to do some chores.

You played too much DW if you trained the dog to fetch the beer and declare war on the neighbor's cat if the dog disappears.

You definitely played too much DW if you attached five propane tanks to your M-16.

You played too much DW IF you ask your wife to do some upgrades.

You played too much DW IF You sit on the Toilet and scream Black Hole , Black Hole , Jump god damned jump.

You played to much DW IF You drop off your kids (troops) in a nice villa and claim it as your new planet, and plant a flagg in the garden.
And then renaming the street because you didnt liked the name.

Like I dread about micro-managing a bunch of stuff like obsessive compulsive for organization/control.

Its more like a nightmare... now that I think of it.
