Keeping up with the Joneses

Well here's a nice little piece of commentary that sums up pretty much the exact ethos
behind why I've set out on my project.  Half the games I bought last year weren't
bought because I really wanted them, but because other people were buying them at
the same time and I thought (rightly or wrongly) that I'd be "missing out" by not
buying my way in at the same time.  Whilst this sort of thinking may be "perfectly
natural", it's not a pattern that I want to fall into and so that's why I've embarked
on my little journey.
