Gaiz! What are you on about? A console is just... A BIG HARD DRIVE!
*gets teenage girl with spastic thumbs who is for some reason wandering around a police station to play*
*she gets to "Level 20" of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time*
*the perp's spreadsheet pops up during a cutscene... I mean at the end of the world*
(I can't remember what show that was. Let's face it. Old people played Pac-Man and Pong; to them, all this makes some manner of sense.)

It's a TV show. Seriously, why are we insisting that our entertainment display some wierd kind of close-minded insight into things. Guess what: Most gamers aren't like this at all, but you know what? Some are, so it's not so bad for a show in one episode to have a bad example of us. Deal with it.
There! You learned well. I'm proud. Fight not fursecution with words but by tolerance.Furburt said:

So you discriminate against me for my beliefs? We're all bigoted in some way.Mr Snuffles said:
But just like ones bigoted towards gamers, they're harmless and entitled to their beliefs. Until legislation pushes.
They're playing a game that doesn't even exist.
Also I saw that one, and it was really retarded.

"Whoa, Whoa, Pause the game!"
What the fuck? Who actually talks like that? Is that how they see us?
The stereotypes are truly overblown.
There is a humor to it, but I don't think that it's supposed to be funny.
I'm pretty sure it's meant to demonstrate us as disgusting and neglectful of our own lives.
Not all of us act like that. Why can't they show a balance? Are gamers really that uncommon? I think not.

I love that B.D. Wong's job on the show is to make up fake mental disorders. I think that's great.
the thing i find worse is the fact that unlike the CSI episode, Law and Order has never had even mediocre writing and has a worse cast for the story. at least the CSI episode you dont know what is happening, and the people are themselves sociopaths, not retards
