Farmville - A Community of Farmers or a Cult?
My sister is a highly educated professor living in Amman, Jordan. She is currently preparing to defend her doctoral thesis this coming summer. So it was only natural that I became very worried when her conversations switched from focusing on politics to farming. That’s right, farming.

Today I am announcing that I will be taking a four week leave of absence in order to go to Farmville in search of my sister. I fear that this farming phenomenon is actually a cult and hope to rescue my sister before she gets in too deep. During my four weeks I will be posting investigative reports in order to educate others about the dangers of Farmville.
This mission does not come without risks and that is why I have enlisted friends on the outside to monitor my whereabouts. Should it appear that I have also become brainwashed by the people of Farmville, they have strict instructions to come in rescue me. Friends and fellow Barbarians, I love you all and please try not to worry.

So now I am at a point in my farming career where I have to ask myself a serious question "Is this free hobby really worth it?" I honestly believe that I have to get out while I can. Farmville on all levels is not a good thing. Sure it kills time, but so does reading a good book. What am I getting out of this? Am I really going to improve the quality of my life by selling my cottage for a villa? I think not, so this my friends I hope is my first and final entry, and hopefully I am able to break free from this madness.
Thank you,

And why does it bother you what your wife does at work??? Is she earning money?? Enough for soap -so that you can at least wash yourself if nothing else???? No???
You sound like an old man, complaining about everything possible. And if you consider yourself "young" than something else is bothering you.
Divorce???? I agree - she should definitely divorce you!!!!! And you should take the kids for a while, and take care of them if your wife doesn't as you said.
If you were that interesting as YOU think you are - she would not forget about you definitely!!!!! But even I can see (and I don't have to know you, nor I want to) than you are nothing else but a complainer and totally dependible on her, as well as your children!!!!!!!!
Try to figure out how you will manage to work, than come home and take care of children that are YOURS as much as they are hers! Divorce! And save that woman from a pest like you:)
Than find a baby sitter if your children are too young, and work even more to be able to pay for it of corse. Make sure you cook every time you come from work, so that your children are fed, and learn how to use the laundry machine - so that your children are clean you know.
Don't just sit on your ass and complain, expecting your wife to be the only one that takes care of those children and a big moose like you!!!!!
THAN you will be someone and something!!!...right now??? You are nothing but extreme boredom!!!!!!!!!!:S
I believe your wifes life with you sucks a biiiiiiiiiggggg time, and I feel sorry for her!
