Telling someone they need a life is such a weird claim.
I once unloaded a twenty-minute rant to a friend about the band Eels. I think an awful lot about that band. Afterwards he told me I was in need of a life. But I did have a life, I have music. It is a large part of how I spend the precious time I'm not productive in.
Or whenever people devote much time to pointless things, like building those frusterating little ships in bottles, many are tempted to tell that devotee to get a hobby. But nigga, that is a hobby. If he did get another hobby as suggested and became a rabid stamp collector you'd probably tell him to get a hobby*. It's not solid logic.
It's like saying "You happen to love somethings that aren't nessacerily productive. LOSER."

*I know the hobbies aren't synonymous with life, but it's more or less the same principle I'm reaching for.

Look my love, I don't care if the bradley dude spends 20 years on the internet or just 1 second or none, he can go and hang himself for all I care. That wasn't the point I was trying to make. Let's be unreasonable for once, shall we?
