I love the part with the triangle myself. Also I'm not sure how long these will be up on youtube before they get removed seeing as showtime is a pay TV channel.

I am looking forward to the Organic Foods episode. It better be good! The next one sounds boring as well: 7-04 The Apocalypse July 16, 2009 The world will end on December 21, 2012 that's according to a growing legion of doomsayers who follow the primitive Mayan calendar. The duo follows a pair of investigators to ancient Mexico to explore the mysterious Mayan Prophecy. | ||

Although, I think that video is about first-person shooter games... and for that I think he does have some points. | ||

For 99% of the gamers out there, video games won't do anything bad. Moralfags just want something to bitch about, like always. Fuck "family values" propaganda. Learn how to properly educate your children and you won't need to feed them BS in order to make sure they are not serial killers. | ||

I like these debates about violent video games, it really brings the idiots out of hiding. I can't pick a better way to single-handedly identify dumb fuck from the uninformed than these viewpoints people have. Then suddenly you have all the idiots lining up behind their idiot leaders, oh ho oh ho oh ho. | ||

There's a lot of bad arguments in that video and none of them really stand up to the countless research programs that state otherwise, then again I suppose it's for the all sake of comedy. As it is right now, in the field of psychology violent video games (or movies) are considered a bad influence on children by most people, though I do think most people are exaggerating the effects. Well Frits as TL resident psychologist can you tell us all what kind of bad influence violent video games do have on kids? Just saying countless research programs shows they are a bad influence is a pretty general statement. | ||
