second post..the impression I get from your brother is
"DEEERRRP!! People posting stuff on da internetz??? DERP!!!!!"
secondly aparently enjoying myself is wrong because Im not drinking partying and fucking anything (well technically I shouldnt be fucking because Im a lady and would make me a slut)
I have a life a damn good one
does it need improving in certain areas? yeah sure...and Ill get to that in my own time
it really does boggle the mind....Comics, videogames, sci fi, star trek, Ive realised this stuff is awsome...why does taking a huge interest in it need to be reserved for "losers/loners"?
you know what makes me think "you need to get a life"?
"dude I was soo drunk the other night"
yeah no..sorry boring, dont care..fuck off (but I dont judge becuase you enjoy it..and thats fine)

No, I don't. I spend pretty much all of my time right now playing video games, watching T.V. or otherwise enjoying myself. Neither I nor anyone else could have MORE of a life than that.wackymon said:
If by life I can interpret that as a source of income than yes I need a life. Otherwise I'm cool with everything else.
Well as has been said defining what is meant by getting a "life" is difficult.
For this poll I voted yes as I probably could be doing a lot better in many areas of my life than I currently am.

The only thing I don't have to have an official `life` is a job, and a lot of people here are out of work at the moment.
It depends what you think a `life` is, I know certain people who think they have much more of a life than me because they get wasted every weekend. That's not my idea of a life.
But I have a good life, a lovely boyfriend, no complaints.

By most people's standards i don't have a life at all. I'm pretty much socially crippled after moving away to go to college, because my freshman year is really just a pitstop before transferring to america i don't actually get along with a lot of people here and it makes me keep to myself a lot.
Back home i was never much engaged in sports or clubs either, but i feel like the people i've met through school and online are really enough for me. I have a girlfriend i'm really happy with and get good grades in school, and i get time off to do the things i actually like rather than what maybe my family wants me to do i.e. things i DON'T like.
Eh... i suppose this here applies well

Person A bounces a ball around and can throw it really good. Person B can finish a lot of really difficult video games, and beat everyone in multiplayer.
Person A is a hero worthy of everyone's respect, while Person B has no life and is a scab on society.
Right...

Nope, don't have one, don't particularly want one. I'm unemployed (Due to society more than myself, though I guess I'm partially to blame) I have a few friends, getting over a girlfriend, and spend my days drinking, gaming and watching anime.
I'm pretty content with it too, save no job and the lack of girlfriend.

Yes, I have a life.
I have great friends and a good job. I go out often, sometimes to parties, sometimes just cause. I travel overseas frequently, and I have friends in many different countries. I do not have a girlfriend, though that is because I haven't met a person I want to make my girlfriend.
Saying 'Get a life' is pathetic. I will counter with this quote: "I'm a gamer, I have many lives (Though currently I've only got three left, stop annoying me)"
Honestly, your brother has no life. If he is looking at online threads and saying how little of a life everyone there has, he needs to go out, meet some people, and ask them if any of them play games. 90% will say yes. If he thinks only people with no lives play games, then he obviously has not had a life for the last 6 years AT LEAST, and needs to get out and socialise more.
Might I also point out, what is 'a life' I am living, therefore I have a life. What else do I need to do to have a life? By learning C++ and python, and doing generally nerdy stuff, I set myself up for a job in the IT industry - jobs that can pay very well at times.
People like your brother need to get out of the mentality that games = bad. The majority of people I have met online have jobs, friends, a girlfriend, sometimes families - tell me they don't have a life.
"Get a life" is a stupid phrase used by those with a need to justify what they do with their life to themselves as they are more than a little insecure about what people think about them. The irony? Those that just live their life, and accept the way others live their lives are almost universally respected in turn. I don't drink, something that 99% of people I know do. They respect that. I don't try to stop them drinking, they don't force me to drink, and each of us just ends up respecting the other more.
If your brother feels the need to belittle others he does not even know simply because of what he believe they do with their life, and that he believes that that is the wrong thing for them to do with their life, he really needs to 'get a life' himself, and stop worrying about what others do, and more about how he can make his own life more enjoyable.

Well, for the past two years I've been sitting on my ass at home doing nothing.
Guess I do need a life, huh?
