*sigh* at the article and its update. It's really quite epic fail.
Anyone remember that article from back in '08 calling video games 'Satan's Sudoku'?

Crap, she's a nut.
And because she doesn't let her son play video games, this will make him play them even more as an adult, it's pretty much inevitable

I thought the whole "Newton noticed an apple fall and suddenly realized there was gravity" thing was a myth and the true story was more along the lines of "He worked for years in his dimly lit office doing boring calculations."

And how would doing another activity like say... reading huckleberry fin help cure cancer?

I think this deserves it's own thread.

Edit: I actually did read one of her other articles.

What a *****. Seriously. Jeez nobody could possibly be this close minded. I'm almost ready to say the lady is a professional troll.

Gee, praise from a publication that calls itself "The Escapist." I escape by reading, writing, visiting natural wonders and travelling the world with my children, as well as writing my humor column which runs in newspapers and online all over the country. These readers escape by playing video games which if you believe all the comments have turned them all into quantum physicists and gotten them full ride scholarships to MIT, not to mention enriched their vocabularies. Somehow, I strongly doubt that. It certainly hasn?t given them a sense of humor.
Video games actually did enrich my vocabulary back when I was a young

Well mortal, you've discovered my device. To the 9th pit for you!!!!
No I joke, but seriously, can't people find a new bandwagon to jump on? Sure Modern Warfare 2 made 500 billion dollars or whatever, but drugs make more than that around the world in a minute. And you know what? Games can be played casually, heroin and crack will almost certainly turn your child into a drooling glassy-eyed stooge. Go pick on them.

Also "His skin is mocha coloured, but after a day at his friends playing video games he came back a sickly pallor"?
Yeah, I had that problem when me and my friends used to make entire new planets out of Lego. It's called activity. If I'm out in the sun for too long a period of time, my hair begins to go slightly blonde, does that mean I spent too much time in class if my hair is now mousy-brown?

God people annoy me.

EDIT: Wow. After reading that after I'd posted it, I feel I should also add this.

"/rant."

Like an unfunny super conservative female Yahtzee who never actually makes valid points?


And @Elrekka

At least we can laugh at how dumb she is

I actually find her defense of her 'hyperbolic satire' even more offensive than the aforementioned satire. It is a good thing she amuses herself; I for one don't find her funny. Piteous? Certainly, but not funny.

Most people just don't get what video games really do. They help regular people unwind.

"Video game obsession is a serious illness in this country that many people recognize.

Video games and other electronics are doing bad things to kids? brains."


"Video games are educational? Sorry, people, I do not believe for one second you are learning quantum physics while you are shooting down zombies. Or that you got your scholarship to MIT by using the skills you learned shooting guerrillas."

well all i have to say is shes a overly conservative bink who doesnt know 2 shits on what shes talking about, why yes yes of course why solve a "serious" problem like video game obbsession rather than alcholism or drug abuse it makes soooo much more sense. and then shes only reserching about 5% of video games "OMG A GAME Contains violence holy shit watch the news for about 5 secs and u'll hear all about that in the "real world" she says other electronics....well what about the computer the internet contains 95% porn and shes useing that not to metion shes a fat shut in that has nothing better to do than rant about something shes "almost quite sure" is happening, her son hates her and her no game rule and i would 2 that explains why hes "aggravated" when ever he comes home, the little boy who has social issues might just be and listin closly SOCIALY AWKWARD holy shit could it be?? but this whole story has given me a laugh while i play video games and drink my Mtn Dew and i think we can all agree that people like these need helmets and or otherwise shot from a cannon into the sun

all facts were taken from

Everyone in my family plays video games, EVERYBODY. My gra'ma will totaly die while playing, she's hardcore.

My mom thinks that they've already found a cure for cancer & the common cold, but refuse to release it because surgeons & pharmaceuticals won't be able to rob us blind anymore if they no longer have diseases & ailments to combat with.

I think todays kids are stupid because their teachers & parents don't drive them suicidal over their education like they do in Japan.
