"Frumpy Mom" Says Videogames Made by the Devil

[ninjapenguin981]

This is what is wrong with people being ignorant.

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

"Even though his skin is normally mocha-colored, after a day spent in a darkened room with a controller in his hand, he comes home with a sickly pallor."

Just a thought, maybe he looks sickly because he knows he has to return to his mother's house? Makes perfect sense to me. I'd rather commit seppuku than return to the house where that... person reigns supreme.

Damn it, she got us there.

Hail satan!

Yes, Hail satan! BLOOD ORGY! I'm going with Chickadee-ee the Chickadee! You can have Beary the Bear!

 

[Azazcyh]

Oh yeah, well I think your the devil! Your trying to get people who would never stop playing games into worshiping satin! I, for one, think your evil and that you need to be stopped.

(See, I can do it too. It's not hard.)

 

[Cid Silverwing]

Why can't we have laws against this?

THIS is the reason the world is not going forwards, because of ignorant zealots such as this *****.

 

[Daveman]

my come back?

*points at her* "FAT!"

Despite the fact that she looks and reads like the fictional columnist at the Onion, Jean Teasdale [http://www.theonion.com/content/columnists/view/teasdale], her anti-gaming message is all too real.

Dante's Inferno marketing team again perhaps?

The worlds youth- look at this article. this is what the past generations have grown up beliving: that radio, books, comics, telivison, music and all other forms of media all being spawns of statan and must be abolished. We must look at this and evolve past the stage of fear of change, of what is new, for in conclusion, that is all it is. parents had no video games as children, so they belive their children will be raised wrong if they have them. the same reapeats from generation to generation, movies, radio, and all other media, but is that not what evolution is? growth? change? some may think this statement is drastic and overstated for such a small thing, but i think not. if we allow the banning of games, more and more growth will be 'untolerable', and i truely belive the growth of humanity will be hindered. i will not stand for this intolerance of human nature, and i ask you not to as well.

Thankyou. this is the best response to her ignorance. she may not understand 'facepalm'.

Actually not as bad as I thought it would be. Sure, she's ignorant and dismissive about something she has no knowledge about, and the "sickly pallor" thing is kind of odd. But she's another person out of touch with their kid looking for a better connection. If anything, I feel sorry for her.

The only thing pissing me off is the Satan thing, the guys who make video games work very hard and should get the credit for their hard work. Satan is funding video games at best

 

[Carlston]

God made the devil by doing a large PR stunt by forcing a mindless willless angel to challenege him to a throne it could never win. They magicly cast it down and blamed all the worlds ill on this thing he made, with a will he controlled.

God made evil, he is the reason bad things happen as well as good, he made video games, he made other religions, he made Frumpy moron moms.

God made evil, and god sees fit for evil to exist because.... Night needs a day?

Nah... Evil is just more fun.

Clearly this is another clever viral advertising ploy for Dante's Inferno. I take my hat off to you Dante's Inferno marketing team, your advertising alone has sold me on this game. *preorders*

You know, this actually makes sense, I actually hope it's an another marketing ploy for Dante's Inferno, but the pessimist inside me says it's not.

 

[Skeletor 0]

Overly-religious extremely conservative people are idiots. End of story.

If video games are made by the devil, then call me satanist and give me something to sacrifice.

hear hear!

 

[AplChild]

It's KINDA true... Don't get me wrong I think she's crazy as a stoat but I have a little brother and when his friends come down they're all smiles and junk, they go on the xbox for a bit, come down to get something to eat and they're pretty irratable. There's a significant difference between their moods.
BUUUT that doesn't mean irritable kids are significant, to hell with kids, they smell and are rude and dislike bathing, AND NO ONE has ever made one on purpose.

 

[Ekonk]

I think Satan is a pretty cool guy. Eh invented video games and DOESN'T AFRAID OF ANYTHING.

 

[MrDarkling]

Damn it, she got us there.

Hail satan!

HAIL!

ALSO this kind of fits perfectly into that thread a few week or so ago.
That evil doesn't exist and is merely a word used to exaggerate someones hate or disliking for another.

I love the way she assumes that the no. 1 thing an adolescent boy would choose to do if video games were taken away from him would be to 'contemplate the universe'.
I don't know about everyone else but at 13/14 contemplating the universe was a long way down my list of things to do.

a sad case, she has finally found a scapegoat for her woefully inadequate knowledge of children's behaviour.
