I seriously hope you aren't allowing your kids to be playing video games...

I bet this instagram user votes Democrat

This can't be real. "If things are bad just start smashing shit with a hammer."

It's pretty obvious that video games are a hindrance for kids growing up to be great. However, it's not necessarily obvious that what the society we live in deems great is better than "wasting" your life on video games. Maybe this kid will grow up to a be a great and functional tax farmer and he'll make some kids he might even like but for what? Society hates gamers because you can't build a society on gamers alone, but maybe that's a problem with said society rather than gamers?

blah blah blah blah It's not videogames fault entirely, I could have learned that shit as well. I'm not knocking a little bit of gaming here and there. I'm a grown up and can make my decisions... HOWEVER let's not act like this shit isn't designed to suck in our focus. How the fuck is a kid going to come to that conclusion???

I grew up playing football and track. Just about every athlete I've played with, endulged in video games in some form or fashion, even the most dominant athletes played a shit ton of COD or whatever bro game. Obviously didn't hinder their abilities, but that's not to say there isn't people who allow it to consume them. Just goes both ways.

Hmmm. .. . breaking perfectly good things for primitive self satisfaction. Great lesson to be teaching kids.

I played vidya all my childhood and I'm about to start training as a physician. I had awful social skills as a child and now I'm perfectly fine, I can talk to any girl anywhere.

My kids will have my introduce games to them that I loved growing up, mostly JRPGS. Nothing is better than connecting and sharing a love of something with your children. Its perfectly fine to share hobbies and grow closer together.

Its different if they're playing fortnite all day and day out and missing their assignments and things though.

Shame she won't delete her sex tapes with Jamal, Tyrone and Marcus.

Most people have issues. I know there are a lot of kids here that have life planned out perfectly but life is nonstop issues. Ultimately, going hard at gaming in yours 20s without major responsibilities is a minor issue.

What actually happened:

>hey son, you're not using your xbox anymore, right? If you let me destroy it, and play along, I'll buy you a Nintendo switch
>okay dad :)

It's brilliant information manipulation, and instagram are the perfect gaggle of idiots to fall for it.

I don't disagree, at this point I'm saying if you have a sore throat, you should deal with it... you can't ignore it because someone else might have cancer.

I had vidya when I grew up and I still managed to go outside, play sports, go to school, etc. In fact I got tired of just playing N64 inside all day and even told my friends "hey, I know you like the N64, but how about we just pay outside today". Odds are it isn't vidya but more-so the fact that he's part of the twitch.tv generation that has been raised to have poor impulse control, short-attention span, etc. You have an endless amount of content that you can stream, so your brain essentially gets trained to continually seek that, instead of simply doing things that, while they're harder, will ultimately be more healthy and enjoyable. Video games on the other hand, especially the older ones, were limited. Once you were finished, you were finished. The content was static, there was nothing more you could do in them. Sure, there was multiplayer, but even that doesn't provide an endless amount of content because there's a limited amount of maps, things you can do, characters, etc.

Vidya didn't turn this generation into shit. Internet probably does far more damage. I know it does for me, as I'm far less productive when I'm posting here all day, rather than sitting down and playing some Sonic or Mario for an hour or so.

What? Are you too poor to afford a smartphone?

user. Look at pic of the father in instagram. Probably a nonmanlet and decent facial genetics. Kid is probably gonna be hitting six foot before 10th grade and have aesthetic face. Geneticlet pls go.

That's the realization I came to two to three years ago, and it's essentially stopped me from doing anything besides working a deadend job and going home to play vidya, lift weights, or walk/swim. Shit like women, and pursuing your dreams is a waste of time, because you only end with up nightmares.

Even without the genetics, the fact the dad probably has a shit load of money is enough to warrant the son successful in the future

you sound like me and my friends lol

Fuck you, faggot. I grew up playing video games with my dad. He introduced me to consoles before my time like NES and SNES got me PS1 and PS2, introduced me to Dreamcast and original Xbox. We also went fishing, foraging for mushrooms, I played football and basketball as a kid. I learned a trade and have my own small business and gaming fueled my imagination and helped me learn foreign languages among other things. Video games are great for a kid as long as your parents pay attention to you and don't just substitute your TV for a nanny and let you play video games all day. Incels come from shit parents that have no social skills themselves. Stop projecting faggot and don't blame your problems on video games.

>What is nepotism?

can someone archive this so we can post again in a couple of years after its gender change operation and posterior suicide hits the news?

>I'm a failure?
>No its the video games that are to blame

it did not escape me that he was wallowing in his heroism. Honestly, this wouldn't even surprise me if it were a viral marketing ploy to try and expose video game addiction.

I do agree with this but if you look throw back the curtain a little, this guy (supposedly) snuck into his kid's room, stole his xbox, destroyed it and made his kid join in for social media points. And this is all because he couldn't be bothered to be an engaged parent. Clearly he wasn't spending enough time with his kid and/or couldn't do basic shit like regulate how long he played vidya, nor the types of games (mmo). He's broadcasting his failure.

While I agree it is completely retarded how much politics have wormed into everything a persons political stance is often reflective of their general thought processes and with how that fag is trying to make excuses for his kid acting like a shit while playing his xbox you can make some guesses about his stances on other shit
It still has pretty much nothing to do with the topic though and the original post that brought politcs up is pretty much "hehehe hes not part of my tribe" even if I agree lefties are retarded and deserving of ridicule most of the time

Yeah dude seriously. They were fucking addicted to the thing. It was like they were hypnotized by it. I guess it helped that none of them had one but me. Got kind of tired of one of them begging to play it everyday.

It's something you can pay instagram to put on your post and instead of just sharing with your followers, it's literally a sponsored advertisement that everybody on Instagram can see. It's pretty cancerous.

How repulsive, I would never sacrifice my passion over someone, when going in couple, people are supposed to respect each other and their passions. It's a mutual relationship.

Vidya can also be a passion. But like any passion, there's always a limit. If you have a kid and a child, then it's important to be with them.
But you can also share your passion, you can even play vidya with your kid and wife, then do some other activities in family.
But vidya is fairly harmless. When I was a kid, I played a shitload of vidya but I also was a lot outdoor. Sure I didn't had a lot of friends but this was because I was already a loner and I didn't liked to be with girls who liked me for unknown reasons.

he fell for the marriage and kids meme, serves him right

When did parents start becoming so detached from their kids? I go to restaurants now and kids are just watching YouTube on their I pads while parents ignore them. Schools are starting to have a harder and harder time with disciplining kids since they fear losing jobs from complaints over it. So often they’ll blame everything but themselves for their kids becoming rotten little shits and make every excuse in the book to not spend time with them.

Agreed video games are trash. Instead he should do something meaningful like spend 4 hours screaming at a sporting event supporting his 'Home" team made up of players traded around like 20 dollar whores from team to team. never mind half of what he will be watching will also be advertisements.

I am not going to say that video games are not a waste of time. The real question is what in this world isn't a waste of time? its a meaningless slog so some cells can endlessly reproduce and nothing more. What are you willing to bet this kid will just end up doing drugs or getting drunk out in the woods instead? That is literally all we did back in the day instead of vidya.

>teach your kids that if you don't like something you should destroy it with violence
I fucking hate these smug middle-class 90 IQ early 40s faggots so much. No doubt the dad is a middle-manager at a dead-end job who has so little power in his pathetic life that he must exploit it whenever possible, which is probably only with food service workers and school teachers in conferences. He is too retarded to put in the critical thought to actually explain rules to his child so he'll just say he's the boss, and his retard kid, having inherited his retard genes, will go on to rebel against "authority" in the predictable fashion. When he starts acting out, the retard dad will then go to the pharma pill pusher to shut his kid up with xanax so he can watch football in peace. After his retarded child enrolls in college on a lacrosse scholarship, his lack of impulse control from his dependence on pharmaceutical drugs combined with never being told "no" will result in him raping a sorority girl and going to prison. Retard dad, unable to cope with the possibility that he was too stupid to have a child, will instead blame social media, the devil, or a combination of both. He'll then remain in his shitty middle-manager job until 78, refusing to retire and let the younger generations move up because he's "devoted to the company." Retiring in Florida, he will at this point be completely unable to move without the assistance of a motorized chair, smoking, drinking alcohol and diet coke, and voting "no" on weed referendums until he dies 4 years later decrepit and alone.

The point I'm making here is we should reinstate eugenics.

That or you would have sunk into self-hatred much sooner and much harder. Let's be honest, most people who come to this site aren't exactly those who are happy, successful, well-adjusted and passionate. Most poster will lack at least one of these, with or without their favorite hobby.

He is secretly poisoning her isnt he?

You do realize before video games people just spent all their time doing drugs,drinking,listening to music etc etc. It is human nature to do easy shit that relaxes them. So born in a different time you would of essentially been the same except it would be some other vice like nerding out over sci fi novels or something. It sure as fuck wasn't going to be anything productive.

I suppose in the past people may have hung out more and while that may seem nice it also lead to tons of early pregnancy and toxic marriages people could only get out of by drinking themselves to death.

Why do parents teach their kids that it's ok to destroy property?

Based parenting

Video games are not a problem.
Invisible parents are.

the best part is he is essentially complaining that the video game companies made a product people like since they keep playing it. I would love to literally throw all this guys food away and make him eat nothing but tasteless garbage so he doesn't become "addicted"

The kid will probably just end up being a drug addict or alcoholic anyway. Had a friend who had some dipshit parents like that. They forced him to study like mad do all their asinine chores and all kinds of other shit. Kid was doing acid like it was going out of style by 8th grade and crash and burned like the fucking Hindenburg in life all because they pushed him too hard and wouldn't just let him chill.

If those gamers were worth thousands of dollars because they were rare, first edition, or had some sort of collectible value and the family was so poor that they could really use the money I could MAYBE understand selling them for the cost of the baby, but that pile isn't worth more than maybe $700 max, $300 minimum, which is less than the fucking iphones they used to take this photo. She made him sell those just to fuck him over and like the cuck he is he just went along with.

yes break the expensive electronics. don't give it to a poor family who aren't over privileged faggots

> Attacks video games but not pornography

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Forcing your significant other to drop hobbies they clearly love is the best indication that they love an imaginary human and not the actual person.

Silly user, poor people don't matter, neither does the environment. Just keep breaking those electronics.

>Honey, maybe you could get off facebook and help with the baby. No? Ok. Oh you're going out with your friends again? That's fine haha. Love you..... Oh, she's gone.

just means she failed the test and so did he. Any woman that wants you to give up what you love for her or change you is not worth a damn and should be ditched. Also women will totally come up with ideas like this just to test the man to see if he is a cuck or not. Now that she knows once that baby is out she can cheat like mad and likely go unnoticed. When that kid is around 5 the marriage will fail and he will lose everything forced to live in some shitty apartment poor as fuck while all his money goes so she can live her nice middle class life style. He will likely greatly miss the comfort of those games while slaving away for that cunt.

there's a big fucking difference between following the rules of the residence and forfeiting right to your property

No, you would've spent your time doing something equally as useless. Don't kid yourself, this is just you coping.

But what if you engage in a harmful hobby, like videogames?

we already have open borders. they're wide open for corporations who have fucking raped this country more than any immigrant ever has by a factor of a billion.

So, didn't you have fun playing those games? It's probably hundreds of normalfags who did "wild shit" back then too but only have hazy memories and just remember that it was fun.

The real problem is finding things to do in modern times.

What proof of ownership does a kid have? They don't have the receipts, paystubs, nor bank account to legally prove they own the things parent's give to them outside of basic necessities like clothing.

fuck gamers and fucking gaming

Nothing would have changed for me. I played so many video games because I was ugly, unpopular, an outcast in school. The reason any kid plays alot of games is an effect of that, not a cause. I remember my parents would try to break my shit all the time ans take it away, even if I would buy it with my own part time job money because they thought otherwise. But in reality, if you were a fulfilled kid with a large social circle, good grades, etc you wouldn't have played many games. It's just a cope for a younger age. I would have probably smoked pot all day long then if it wasn't for it.

True

How do people get addicted to video games? Unless its a real high quality title I don't want to play for more than a few hours after work. Kinda pisses me off because people call me a game addict and I kinda wish I was because I'd at least have one character trait.

And its always the most bottom of the barrel designed by committee shit these people play too. Filled with XP bars and microtransactions and e-dick stroking. Like nobody is breaking their Turbografx because they can't put down Galaga '90 or whatever. You'd think people who "ruined their life with games" would be deeper... INTO games!

What gives?

What ISN'T being told here is that the father probably talked his son into going to disney world or some fucking shit if he gives up his console for some fucking internet sympathy points.

Why didn’t you save him

this is why we need a Game Cube 2.
that hammer wouldnt stand a chance.

There's a whole series of video of them bullying the kid, apparently some people paid them good money and instructed them new ways of how to torture him.

Some games are literally designed to ensnare those with addictive tendencies these days. Mostly the mobileshit and AAA garbage full of lootboxes and microtransactions. Game companies will LITERALLY employ psychologists to design manipulative systems; it's fucking sickening.

Tell him that you will lose all respect for him and stop talking to him if he sells his instruments. Tell him that a man needs to have a passion, an escape in his life. Be serious about it - tell him to work something else out or you're done.

It'll sound cold, it'll sound villainous. But at the end of the day he'll have to go back to gf and tell her "sorry, my brother will hate me if I do this, I can't".

you can't save people from themselves.

Techno phobia is closer to aids than game addiction is, in my view. My heart breaks for all those poor parents struggling every day to think of ways of preventing their infants from using Satan's iPad and beezlebub's iPhone.

>thinking a kid whose dad tells him things like "it's not your fault you have no self control" will be successful in life
I'd bet money that kid ends up killing himself after HRT.

Do you seriously think that a man willing to get rid of his passion just for a woman is going to care about what his family has to say? That's how i lost my last 2 friends, both times the fucknig roastie just straight up told me to stop hanging out with my friend, when that didnt work i guess they put pressure on them or something but i never heard of them again

Gaming in moderation has benefited my son. It’s helped him become more interested in reading and math. Strengthened his hand-eye condition. Help to qualitatively demonstrate cause and effect, and stimulated his imagination.

Best of luck user, you'll do great

Choice is the higher level of thought, because it breaks through all predetermined factors. We use to reach that level of thought through faith in god. But in our current cynical age, even church goers don't truly believe god has a plan for them.

If you want to escape fate, then you must first have FAITH that you are more than what life has set out for you. And I know you think that's impossible, because you're fated to either have faith or not. But that's the FIRST obstacle preventing you attaining true control over your own life. It's a knot that you need to untangle. But not through reason. Because it defies reason. You have to find faith first. Maybe it's not god for you. But it has to be something greater than yourself. Family, Country, Humanity... From that faith, you will find the strength to overcome the trap of destructive fatalistic thought.

You don't need to dwell in the past mate. Accept your losses and move on. You don't have to perceive this as a shameful thing instead of an opportunity to learn. Figure out what your really want instead of what you "should" do

Stupid mobile poster.

Girls are easy. Just be a cool dad, spend some time with her, and correct her behavior by talking and impressing upon her the importance of what you say, without being an oppressive tyrant.

Girls care about "fairness" a great deal. So when it comes to discipline, you have to be firm but fair. If you don't explain why she's being disciplined, then she will rebel. Use your words. Don't just scream and yell to get what you want.

>That kid's looks attractive.

Does /pol/ think highschool movies are the real world

I don't doubt that those things never happened to you in high school. Virgin.

There's different types of truth, user.
I could tell you a story, like
>"I have a pissbottle sitting by me"
and I would be telling you a boring story, but furthermore I would be lying.
However, while I would be lying, the story itself would be fundamentally true -- chances are there's an user somewhere in this thread who has one by them, let alone someone somewhere in the world.
And that is what matters: no matter whether or not the storyteller is lying, what you care about is whether the story itself is true.

Is that story about a guy getting whipped into selling his games collection true? Well, maybe the specific image is a lie, but the story itself is fundamentally true -- you can easily figure that yourself. Quite a few guys will have sizeable game collections, and quite a few gfs/wives will want to tear away any joy from their man that they can. Easy maths can tell you there are probably dozens of cases like this per year.
And most such cases go unrecorded, so it's only reasonable to use fake recordings (like the one pictured) to take up the slack.

Nice Bait user, now go back to your cave you fucking troll

no, but that was the addiction that kid in particular had, and it is very common with young men

From my own experiences:
Where was he when he could've been offering alternatives ways to spend time other than videogames?
Did he let videogames(or comics, or cartoons, or YOUTUBE) raise his child because it kept the kid busy enough to not bother him while he was doing his own things, be it work or leisure time activities, and now when the kid was old enough for doing something he liked, AND he felt like playing catch for once, the kid had not been grown into it by someone guiding him into liking things other than videogames and thus did not care for it?
Could it be that in the aftermath it was easier to make a demon out of videogames instead of facing the mirror and seeing that if you wanted your child to end up differently you should've been there to raise him?

It's like putting down your dog because in a key moment in time it trusted the orders of someone who spent time with it, trained it, fed it and took care of it instead of someone who just had him one day and delegated all the responsibilty and work to someone else.

Babyboomer mentality is really something else.

They lived during a prosperous time where you'd effortlessly get into a high paying job where you could then own a house and splurge on things like cars, boats, eating out at restaurants, and going on frequent weekend vacations. Nowadays, it's a fucking struggle and video games are one of the few great things that we can experience.

Most of us are either neets or living in a space with multiple roommates. I think that says a lot about the U.S.'s current state.

You're looking at it wrong. People get murdered over sports games IRL, even though they don't play, they're just fans of it. He'd get equally pissed and stab someone if he cared about soccer, but he doesn't, he cares about video games, it could be anything.

the guy in the post is a turbo cuck

I feel like if I didn't waste literal THOUSANDS of hours on stupid video games growing up, I may have had a better chance at not being a complete retard when I grew up. It used to be easy to see some stupid boomer say something like this and think "Pssh. That's just about bad parenting, stupid" when in reality, I think it's a more personal action. It's about what you yourself do with your time and when you're a dumb little kid like me, the obvious action is to spend hours playing these badass games instead of developing as a person in the real world. This development as a person doesn't matter to a little kid and it only hits you that you're an undeveloped loser that doesn't know how to do anything until you are knee deep in it.
All in all, video games are just another medium like movies, books or music, but in our day and age it's extremely easy to get sucked into them and piss away your crucial developmental years.
It's easy to say what you think should be done in terms of moderation of gaming so that you don't basically become a social retard but it's easier said than done. It's just such a harmless act. In all this time shitposting on the internet and playing video games, I could've develop interests which would make participating in the real world seem worth it, but now interest in video games beyond what I've already played has left me; along with it the only thing I've ever spent time developing within myself.

you can say fag here.

Not even joking. The dad is honestly kinda-sorta actually right.

Videogames did fucking NOTHING for me as a kid. I dropped out of wrestling because I just wanted to play games afterschool, and I still regret it to this day. I was a good gamer, but I was a GREAT fucking wrestler, and because I was a lazy sack of shit, I missed out on what would have been my best year as a senior, just because I wanted to play a game that I don't even give a shit about anymore.

I could've pursued girls, gotten a summer job, taken summer school, gone on a road trip with my friends; I even spent my fucking vacation to Disneyland with my family glued to the hotel room screen, playing that fucking Xbox. I think back on it now and realize how fucking stupid I was being, and how I would slap my fucking ass if I could go back in time and look at all the time I've wasted.

Nowadays I got a job to go to, the gym to be, girls to meet, classes to pass, family to hang out with. I only ever play videogames when I've got the spare time, and I can't fucking BELIEVE just how much time I wasted doing something that doesn't even bring me as much joy anymore now that I'm older and more mature. Yes, I still like videogames, and yes, I enjoyed videogames when I was a kid, but working with teens now in summercamp, I see the exact same shit and it hurts my heart.

Get the FUCK off fortnite and fucking go out there and talk to girls and swim and have fun outside. It literally doesn't fucking matter in the end. 10 years from now, you're going to be JUST like me, wishing you asked Stacy out to the MidSummer Night's Dream dance instead of staying in your little fucking cabin playing smash bros all night, which is something you do every other night anyways.

C'mon, man. Don't fucking be like me. Don't miss out on your youth like I did.

i would have just watched tv instead. is that more productive? at least i can have friends in video games.

Loser.

Yeah, I never played like more than a few hours of a game in a day, even a favourite will get boring. Even with my most played game doturd which I have 4k hours in, I really spent only like 4-5 hours a day playing, even when I was really into it. You can hardly call it addiction, that's like saying TV or netflix is an addiction.

There's plenty of time to do every thing user. The thing is, as a parent, you have the responsibility to teach your kid how to manage his time.

God, I learned to read and write thanks to MS-DOS and those Mickey Mouse games at the age of 3 because my dad teached me how to use them.

Videogames aren't bad, don't fall to that meme. It just consume time, that's why you have to manage it.

Unironically this.

You can scream "anecdotal evidence!" all you fucking want, but you'd have to be a fucking brainlet not to make the very obvious, real-world connection. Kids CAN'T fucking control themselves around shit they really like.

They'll eat ice cream until they'll puke. They'll get away with never bathing or brushing for days at a time if you fucking let them. They won't do the laundry even if their clothes are all fucked up and grimy. They won't stop playing videogames even if it's detrimental to them because they straight up just don't give a fuck.

Hot news flash! Surprise-Surprise: the kid who sinks a thousand hours into videogames is one thousand hours behind that one kid who spent a thousand hours learning to talk to his girl classmates and playing ball with the other boys. Wow! What a shocker!

And then when that socially practiced boy applies his experience to wider and wider social circles, he'll become a well adjusted member of society, whereas the boy who played videogames all the time will retreat into videogames again after realizing he's uncomfortable with trying to be a socialite, turning it into a vicious repeat-cycle?

Wooooooooooooooooow! What a surprise! I'm so surprised!

Unironically if a woman tries controlling your life and wants you to get rid of what makes you happy because she sees it as childish or a waste of time/money, you should just dump her instead. Good luck if you already married her

Pretty much this. If she doesn't respect what you are now, she'll never do it.

You sound like a huge bitch.

I really loved lego growing up, we had like 4 boxes full of different pieces and I could spend hours coming up with all kinds of buildings and structures

one day when I was about 9 my dad decided it was time to grow up and thrown away every piece of lego we had into the trash
I still resent him for it

yeah, but reading is educational as fuck

Depends on what you read.

Henry Cavill?

He's just playing them because they're funner than other available options. What the heck dad

Ignorant simpleton.

Games didn't make you lazy.

LONDON

Depends on what the books are. The point is video games have very little room to build on into something more fulfilling. Video games are very point blank. You gain the experience of having played the game. Even if all the kid who read books for thousands of hours read was shitty genre fiction, he could still potentially learn something about language or how to write a book himself. Of course you're right and there were kids fucking themselves with books the same way kids are fucking themselves with video games now. Video games are just closer to mind rot than books.

This always gets me, the mental image of him going through every shelf and drawer in that room just to throw the shit out everywhere all because he got mad over Tekken is too funny. And then he posted it on a forum like it's totally normal

I'm referring to passively developing skills by proximity of the act. Usually social skills. Linguistic skills with books for that example. For example, you dont go skateboarding as an educational act, but you'll probably socialize with other skateboarders which will help you learn not to be a nobody like I am.
Socialization through video games has taught me to be a douchebag and push away the people around me which translated to real life. Maybe it was just me naturally, but I have little doubt it contributed to it.

That's peanuts to how many hours I could've spent developing as a person.
Multiplayer online games teach you to socialize almost completely differently, I reckon. I've never really been able to hold online friends because I'm a crazy douchebag as mentioned before. Think about how fucking weird discord communities are. Relationships rarely remain healthy. Weird hierarchies form. I dunno. It just seems like there's something corrupted about socializing through video games. Especially in this day and age I can barely fathom developing internet friendships like I used to while those lasted. Dunno maybe it's just me.
Unless you're talking about, like, esports kind of competition, then I have no clue. They kind of seem like the discord type.

you have a really warped perspective of what a hobby is if you genuinely think people should actively dedicate their free time towards self-betterment

That's just what I've seen as an outside observer. I've sort of stopped socializing on interpersonal levels on the internet a little bit after discord started being a thing. I could be wrong.

I agree but replace gaming with something else.
boys should have play dates with other boys where they build stuff, like robots., or code or do something fun together that is mentally stimulating.

Read what I said here it's the passive development as a person. And "self betterment" is sort of putting words in my mouth. It's not that you're constantly actively trying to improve yourself. It's that you're not naturally stuck in a mental stasis.

Solution is simple.
Ban videogames.

Just like how the flower generation learned the dangers of free love and drugs well enough to know to ban them hardcore from all the youth of the future; our generation has learned that videogames are no good, they are dangerous and harmful. It is our duty to ban them. We might've had fun with them but we also now know fun is not worth the destruction of society.

I think this is the most difficult part of the video game problem. Its like having opened a pandora's box. They're already ingrained in our culture. They're too good and innocent to just ban. We just have to deal with them being a component in the development of limp wristed social retards like us

This is a simple case of them taking advantage of you due to the console, which made YOU grow envious or indifferent to it, since most of the stuff you played was likely repetition to you, and the stuff they did when you weren't arpund started to seem distant and funnier to you.
