Could be just me, but I didn't think it was addicting at all. Tried it for 3 mins or so and never again. High level 2!!! ya!

How do you make it non-addictive?.. Does it come with a coupon for a rehab center?

I would be heartbroken as well, but from seeing how many *****s take a game so dumb so seriously.

Maybe the game could do well in proper rehab centres to help take the patients mind off their addiction/s and replace it with another.

Negligent mother: Go to your room, Jimmy! You're distracting me!
Nguyen: ....

Unemployed dude: F*** the quarterly report! I can't get past this damned pipe!
Nguyen: ....

Spoiled child: THIS IS TOO HARD!!!!! *smashes phone*
Nguyen: ...I can't take this anymore! People have such horrible priorities!!! *pulls Flappy Bird*

App-store: *shows ridiculous profit*
Nguyen: ...I must be tougher than I thought. *re-launches Flappy Bird*

Have I represented the narrative correctly, so far?
