I was playing EU4 as the nation of Kosovo and had conquered a large territory in Russia in the shape of a V. Japan had declared war on me over a small piece of land on the eastern front. I had my armies camped out at the choke points on the mountainous regions around my provinces. Their army had nothing against my stacks of 700k troops on the defense.

I got up from my seat because I remembered that I wanted to talk to a parent of a friend. I walked around their neighboring house but got distracted by their cat that was sitting by a gap of their fence around the swimming pool. I heard someone in the backyard and decided to head home instead before my friend popped their head out.

When I got back to the computer, I found that my browser was on a Twitch stream of a friend playing some kind of FPS.
