週末雜記 (打機、鐵膠、狂熱)

話說今個 weekend 搵返塵封多時嘅 GTA V online 嚟玩。

連玩咗兩日，大概已經就快爆晒兩大打劫任務。回想當初玩第一大打劫任「太平洋」，合四人之力都要玩好幾日先完到。但遊戲新設計嘅任務，都係 for 一個人打都得；可能官方都知呢個時勢要湊夠四條友一齊打係難過登天，咁就不如索性開放俾你哋啲自閉撚「毒個玩」算。雖然官方呢個決定都幾啱我（而呢個多人遊戲大部分時間我都係單機），但都忍唔住回憶返，當年同朋友邊玩邊笑、俾人笑玩得蝦碌嘅日子。

因為屋企自閉打機，我錯過咗沙中線開幕日。俾著係以前，我都可能會趕喺沙中線開通果日出去試吓條新線（當然唔係堅持做首批衝果啲啦）。但天氣時晴時雨、又要喺屋企陪蠢小孩，就唯有唔出街鳥。對於每次有新線開通，網上熱論嘅鐵膠儀容／行為／興趣，我都係得一個comment：影響到你咩傻hi。第一想講嘅係，其實著衫嘅嘢都係睇場合啫。大家都係鐵膠的話，著得太正路咪顯得格格不入。自問都唔係啲講究衣著嘅人，心諗又有咩資格笑人。而且講到人靠衣裝，我又覺得唔係下下著老西就高人一等嘅（抱歉 fd list 真係有人係如此暗示，呢點不吐不快）。

至於行為上，佢哋衝都係星期日朝早衝啫，又無阻到打工仔返工，衝動漫展、衝美食展嘅人都大有人在，而且年年都咁衝早就見怪不怪，仲拎嚟當年經咁笑，我都開始睇到笑唔出。

最後講到興趣上就更加無可厚非。好多朋友都提出咗：人去到一定年紀，要搵到一樣可以令自己全程投入嘅嘢係好難，佢哋呢種狂熱好值得人羡慕。呢點我好同意。

就好似頭先我話呢排投入打機，都講緊可能係兩三日嘅事，就已經玩挑戰咗隻遊戲出咗兩三個月、甚至年幾兩年嘅update，仲要玩三兩日已經開始覺得攰同厭；但講緊二三十年始終如一都仲咁狂熱嘅喜好，問心我真係無一樣嘢可以比到。（比較近磅嘅可能已經係 Lego 同埋寫作，但問心呢兩樣嘢我都係叫大個先開始、而且亦唔夠狂熱分子咁鍾情入去）所以，咩乜膠物膠，由佢啦！人哋講乜咪有得佢講，對件事有愛嘅話，自己堅持就得。

鐵膠嘅狂熱，令我諗起《Breaking Bad》第三季有個製毒科學家自介嘅一場獨白：

“Well, there’s crime and then there’s crime, I suppose. I’m definitely a libertarian. Consenting adults want what they want, and if I’m not supplying it, they will get it somewhere else. At least with me, they’re getting exactly what they pay for. No added toxins or adulterants. Yeah, I was doing it the way you are supposed to– pursuing my doctorate at Colorado, NSF research grant. I was on my way, jumping through hoops, kissing the proper behinds, attending to all the non-chemistry that one finds oneself occupied by. You know that world. That is not what I signed on for. I love the lab. Because it’s all still magic.”

“You know that world. That is not what I signed on for. I love the lab. Because it’s all still magic.”

希望睇到呢段嘅您，可以搵到一樣足以令自己狂熱嘅嘢。
