Wii Injuries on the Rise
No offense, but how idiotic does someone have to be in order to get injured by a stupid video game system like the Nintendo Wii??? I just read an article that says injuries from playing Wii are on the rise, according to the New England Journal of Medicine. At first I thought the article was going to focus on senior citizens and talk about arthritis treatments or something. After all, I know that retirement homes have been using Wiis to help keep residents active, and that age group would seem to be more prone to that type of problem anyway.
But actually, the article doesn’t name a specific age group when talking about the Wii mishaps. It seems that people are falling off the three-inch high Wii Balance Board (are you kidding me???). The article also cites “head injuries” that can occur from playing Wii in confined spaces. WTF is that all about?
I swear, some people….
