Forums - Gaming - "I hate videogames! GET OFF MAH LAWN!"

I found this guy's total lack of sane thought in his comments to be quite impressive.

Taken from Kotaku.com

============================================================================= 

No point in pussy footing around. Let's dive in. Writes Times guest contributor and book author Giles Whittell:


I hate video games, on or offline. I hate the way they suck real people into fake worlds and hold on to them for decades at a time. I hate being made to feel hateful for saying so, and I hate being told to immerse myself in them before passing judgment, because it feels like being told to immerse myself in smack and teenage pregnancy before passing judgment on them.
This is not because of anything wrong or bad about video games or heroin or teenage parents. It's not even because of game-induced homicide or web-grooming of little girls by perverts - serious problems, but statistically low-risk. It's because, compared with everything else on offer in a kid's life, video games and heroin and teenage pregnancy are a colossal waste of time.
Video game and heroin and teenage pregnancy? Either Nintendo, some junkie or a pregnant teen killed his dog. We're not sure. Maybe all of them. Together, even!

=========================================================================== 

Seriously, equating videogames to heroin and teen pregnancies?  And hating games because they "suck real people into fake worlds"?  I guess we better start hating on books, music, television, movies etc. as well!

I think his wife lost interest in him when she started to play the Wii and to make mutters worse she didn´t fasten the wii mote good enough so it flew right in his bigscreen just to bounce down on his dog and killed it which in turn led his children to get depressed and seek proffesional help from a therapist.

In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird.
Now the world is weird  and people take Prozac  to make it normal.

If laughing is the best medicine and marijuana makes you laugh

Is marijuana the best medicine?

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."

“If any creator has not played Mario, then they’re probably not a good creator. That’s something I can say with 100 percent confidence. Mario is, for game creators, the development bible.
