Worthy of Larry Niven
A few quotes that this recalled to my head.
'Wirehead' Ringworld
'Make his day' Not Dirty Harry but Ringworld again
'I came to burgle your f###in' apartment!!' From a short story about a burgler who ends up curing a wirehead instead. (I can't think of the title!)
And now, a great pick-up line I though of after all of this.
"Honey, let's stimulate our pleasure centers, indirectly."
