| Onyxmeth said: If you think long and hard, none of those other things are any more productive than videogaming if your goals in life are merely changed. You find excercising and getting good grades as being more productive because your end goals involve being healthy and getting a good job. If the end goals were to be changed to lounging on your couch having fun, then videogames would be far more productive than excercising and getting good grades. However, there's very little reason why you can't accomplish all three. There are enough hours and days in the week to study, exercise and play games.

This. It all depends on what your priorities are in life. I will say that I myself have found less and less time to play videogames though as I have so much else going on in my life.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
