A Modern Ethical Dilemma

So a man by the name of Chris C- used my email address for his Netflix account. This is very frustrating, as I get constant messages from Netflix about his efforts to reset passwords, change account settings, etc.

I actually logged in and changed the password. It turns out, he lives in Hemet, CA, not far from my sister in-law and her husband. He is "RETARIED", which, given his address and age, may mean "retired".

I called and left a message asking him to change his email, and explaining to what I had changed his password.

So here is the dilemma: how far am I allowed to go to make him change his account? I have added a poll so you can vote.

Also, on a totally unrelated note, what are the worst movies you can imagine someone sticking into your movie queue? And I don't just mean "Well, I didn't care for it much", I mean "Proof that Jesus Died in Vain" bad. I want movies so bad they become a by-word for 105 minutes of your life you will never get back and whose taint you may never purge from your soul, films which "sucked so bad that it made me question the validity of my own existence as a sentient being."

You know, just for curiosity's sake.

UPDATE: Chris C- changed the email. All that effort to convince Mindy to rub him out gently persuade him was obviously unnecessary.

Very Unexpected.

So, my friend's G-mail status said that she was "making a website". I said, jokingly, that if I had a website, I would call it "Isaac's Awesome Website".
Well, before I know it, she's made ME a website!
Great. I can barely keep up with Ten Sengi. Now I've got my own site to worry about.
I expect that in a few weeks it will fall into the Other-worldy horror of Never-Updated-Land, but for now, it's here.
Fortunately, it's one of those free website places, so my friend didn't have to pay to make it or anything.
Man, my own website...

Plants VS Zombies

Mom, Dad, Isaiah, and I have been playing a very fun (and funny) game lately called Plants VS Zombies. It is a very fun puzzle game, and by the time you finish adventure mode, the amount of other things you can do completely swamps you.
The Zombies and Plants did, however, manage to get along long enough to do one thing together...

I, Video Game?

So, Isaiah has been talking lately about how cool it would be to have a video (or computer) game about him. He says he'd call it "Isaiah Coleman's Cool Game for Attractive People" (a name which definitely does NOT have anything to do with one of our favorite computer games, "Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People".)
At first, I thought it would be pretty cool, too.
Then I thought about what it would actually be like.
At the beginning of the game, you have to go to my shelf and grab a book. Then you would walk to the bedroom and click, "use BOOK with ISAAC on BED."
The next 5-and-a-half hours of the game would be me...reading. And sometimes going to the bathroom.
Then, if you wait for 5-and-a-half hours, there would be more stuff you have to do. You have to walk to the kitchen, and perform the action, "use ISAAC'S RIGHT HAND with FORK on FOOD."
Then an hour of eating and pleasant conversation.
Then sleeping for 10 hours.
Then you win.
The sequel would have the unbelievable excitement of going to school.
Unbelievably BORING UN-excitement!
I mean, I don't really mind going to school, and my teacher's awesome and fun, but it's not video game material.
So, I guess my video game won't be coming out for a while.
But check out this pixelated box art!
