Old and busted: Pretending someone's alive for their Social Security check

New hotness: Pretending someone's alive for their Steam account

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

4 generations later: "I've inherited my father's steam account just as he inherited it from his father and so on. The library has grown ever larger, and yet so many remain untouched. The summer sales have sustained my forefathers and yet I feel hollow. Each year, more games are added to this historic account, but each year brings more regret as the purchases go untouched. I shall make a promise to myself: finish the extensive library, honor my family, complete the library. But first, some more Counter Strike."
