it is just a game, just like hockey, baseball, soccer, football, basketball etc... are all just a game. people play the game for fun, it is an enjoyable use of time. That is until you realize you could have studied in your spare time and not had a 2.4 GPA in high school, and the only school that accepted you is the one that you didn't want to go to. Then once you get there, since your so accustomed to not studying, you get put on academic probation. And you wonder why the fuck you wasted your time playing this game, when you really could have gotten into routine of actually trying on academics. Where getting a B on iccup seemed like a better idea then getting a B in school.

fuck my life

LOL i get this a lot too.

@OP:
It's your hobby, if other people criticize you for it, tell them to fuck off.

LOL that is so funny it almost made my day.
It would have if at school my friend didn't throw and orange 30 feet across the room and peg a ginger in the face.
But yeah, you won't get them to understand how amazing SC is unless they are gamers which by the sounds of it they aren't. But yeah, if it's your hobby and people don't like it tell them to fuck off.
If you watch Godzilla backwards it's about a benevolent lizard who helps rebuild a city and then moonwalks into the ocean.

My dad really likes Go/Chess so I just tell him it's a similarly complex strategy game but with a larger physical aspect.

Also I once won 40 quid in a tournament (this was before I was old enough to get a job) so I guess that convinced them a bit too. :D

Also, my brother only plays UMS. I tell my parents that's like getting a chess board, pieces and timer, then playing doll houses.
No I'm never serious.
