Tetris is a scary game. It hypnotizes me.  Literally.  At this point, I'm tempted to type something that could cause me to be locked up.


Many years ago, I was playing Tetris on an old Nintendo system and had advanced to some upper level.  Time had stopped, and I was aware of nothing but the game.  And I started hearing voices.

Speaking French.

Now, I do not understand a word of French, but suddenly I was hearing this conversation and understood every word of it.

I still play Tetris some, but not nearly as much.

I use the "bomb" to eradicate lines and columns that I don't want (like when I stack up too many on one side or when I have a gaping hole at the bottom and want to be able to use the space to get rid of lines).

I too am an addict: level 10 and 120 lines

I understand k-pappy.  My husband doesn't know I'm playing it again and I almost feel guilty

 

Level 11, 157 lines...

AND COUNTING!

Yeah, today is National Common Sense Day, and my kids and I are having a "National Backwards Day" in honor of common sense, you know, we're totally doing non-sensical things like eating pizza for breakfast, ice cream sundaes for lunch, and for dinner we're gonna' have eggs, biscuits and other breakfast nummies for dinner -- and NO VEGETABLES today, nada.  Oh, and we're all wearing our pajamas all day long.  Of course, I'm wasting a bunch of time playing Tetris while they enjoy watching T.V. all day (trust me, this a real treat for them -- we don't watch a lot of T.V).  It's been a totally backwards and completely fun day.  :o)

Level 24, 351 lines.

I don't know that I should be bragging about this.  Seriously, how much time am I wasting?!?!
