Angry Birds, Farmville and Other Hyperaddictive ‘Stupid Games’
Tetris is the only game I was ever addicted to. And I was really good at it to boot. They came out with a version for the graphing calculator in the late 90s, and I can't tell you how many hours of class I spent Tetrising. It was kind of sick, because I would sometimes day dream about the blocks and how to place them more efficiently.

I'm also a Tetris addict. Are you by any chance on Tetris Friends? Are you maybe interested in a friendly 1x1?

They're called casual games. We have a name for them. Whether or not it's a good name is debatable, but personally I feel continually calling them stupid games before speculating whether or not they'll bring about a dystopian future makes your article sound, I dunno, stupid.
