How were gamers owned?

While I dont do that (anymore). I dont see a problem with it. Im all for people being themselves. If someone loves playing video games, and arent hurting anyone by playing them, how is that any of anyone elses business.

Just because he's a genius and has lofty goals, doesnt mean everyone should have the same goal. Im sure he'll die rich with lots of good inventions/ideas. What does that have to do with how much videogames anyone plays??

Dude you should know by now, I have light standards for ownage

Pretty much everyone plays, or at least HAS played, video games, including me.........But doing it everyday for 4-5 hours is overkill IMO.............same with watching TV...........because people like that probably don't leave themselves enough time to work out, socialize, spend time w/family, travel, take a class, learn something new, look for a better job, and all the other important things in life. Shit, even just going out drinking would be a better use of time, cuz at least they might have some stories to tell from it.

Put it this way, if you had a kid, would you be cool with him spending 4-5 hours gaming every day. Probably not, so why should it be encouraged with adults.

Shall we extend that to stuff like watching sports on TV?
What about debating politics and philosophy on the internet?

At least you are keeping your writing and analytical reasoning skills alive by posting on the internet

I hear that they have these things called books now. Seems that you don't even have to leave your house for them. Just buy them on the internetz and they come right to your door. Don't even need to leave your couch.

While you're out saving humanity (hippy fruitcake) the rest of us will be banging your mom and the girl who won't talk to you that you like so much.

Good luck saving humanity with your B.S. in Astrophysics and martial arts skills.
