"Frumpy Mom" Says Videogames Made by the Devil

[ffxfriek]

Damn it, she got us there.

Hail satan!

i know im really starting to hate these people. Im conservative and religious but im no where near that crazy. videogames were not made by the devil... why do people still listen to these nuts?

 

[Polarix]

I really don't like people like that. Ignorance is one of the few things that genuinely grind my gears.

Oh well, I'm not going to blame Christianity as a whole over it. She's just one person in the grand scheme of things.

Thank you for saying this, because a lot of normal everyday christians are gamers themselves and probably think that this lady is an ignorant retard as well. I also have to say to this ass-hat of a woman that people that make and develop games aren't workers of Satan but are just trying to make a living in this world doing something they love for the good of humanity and they and other gamers don't need to be ridiculed for enjoying life to its fullest.

And that is all I have to say on this topic, See ya later folks.

Rage...building!

I thought we took those people out when we killed jack thompson, oh well more crazys to take out.

I think he's still alive, just, no one listens to him anymore and he's batshit insane.
Also, that woman is entirely right. Ralph H. Baer is Satan.

When do they ever have brains free from electronics long enough to ponder the universe?

/me sighs

Some people just cant keep up with the times. First it was radio, then the music, and then the TV.

And hey, We're still here.

 

[Poofs]

now guys dont be ridiculus everyone knows that videogames make you sick and GTA has a points system

 

[ersatzcure]

Facepalm.

-_-
*Facepalm*

indeed.

There is no other way to respond...


On a side note, pondering the universe is generally a bad thing. It causes bad thoughts that shouldn't be pondered about.

-cough- Anyway, on-topic: I really just... this ISN'T a joke? I just really don't know how to react. Probably sadness that people like this haven't been removed from the gene pool yet.

In related news, I've been playing games since I was three years old and I'm going to be entering pharmacology school shortly. :| So yeah, it's obviously true that videogames = unsuccessful/unmotivated/stupid etc.

I still just reallly can't believe someone can be so stupid and still be breathing. I feel bad for her kids.

Edit: Also, I think it's pretty great that she's talking about videogames negatively impacting children's "lifetime habits of fitness" when she's pretty plump herself.

Is the devil really that bad? He makes kickass music, makes Oujia boards work, and now, he makes video games! The devil seems like a pretty cool dude, if you ask me.

 

[Nurb]

Doesn't she mean "Debul"?

On a side note, pondering the universe is generally a bad thing. It causes bad thoughts that shouldn't be pondered about.

Pondering on a whole for long periods of time is bad for me. When I start a-ponderin, I start a-plotting. If I didn't busy myself with games, you'd all be dead.

 

[matnatz]

All is lost.

Hehe, and we're talking about someone here who essentially cheats his way out of everything using that nifty wrench.

 

[cheese_wizington]

Why are there so many, "Some asshole hates video games" articles on the Escapist?

 

[brunothepig]

Oh no... Seriously? Fucking *****. Haha oh I actually really want to meet her... How do you think she would react if I told her that the one thing more important to me than games is Heavy Metal? Ha. Satanist indeed.

 

[TheNamlessGuy]

DELETED

 

[Jon Etheridge]

Stupid people? Pissed off about something they don't understand? The hell you say!

Seriously, someone go take a shit on this *****'s doorstep.

 

[Buizel91]

you see what i don't get is this...

a few month ago games like COD were praised because they help people see smaller things better or summit like that, (you know noticing people half way across the map) and the article(on yahoo)praised the idea that games could be used to help children with their eyesight.

then we get the fuck wits (this old tart here)saying her child is turning a"paler colour* because a devil that dost exist (except to people in the escapist..duh)

seriously, does she watch the news, if she did she would games get praise for such things, although they get slammed alot as well...still...every little helps

also just to point out, she says her kid was in a dark room, im pretty sure that when its been dark for a while ur skin goes a lighter shade... then when light hits it, its goes back to normal colour...

if that women is reading this...your a Muppet (miss piggy to name one)
