Awesome video.

After a few beers I'll start flying around and harassing workers due to video games. And I micro myself very, very poorly.

The amusing thing was when Jack Thompson mentioned how 65% of America thinks we should limit the sale of violent video games. That actually makes a lot of sense. We already limit the sale of R-rated movies to kids under 17, it would make just as much sense to limit M-rated video games to kids under a certain age.

That being said, the whole argument that video games cause violence is crap. I love how they completely dismantled everything Jack Thompson and that other guy said. I don't really have much else to add to everything they mentioned in the videos.

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.

you need to work on your hold beer skills and work on that idle conversation macro, I think. Maybe try the proxy bar stool to hot chick and transition to getting a phone number build next time.



...sorry, it's late and I'm tired.

That's the first ep of that tv show that I've seen and it wasn't that good. I like that he's fucking with jack thompson and stuff, but he wasn't really funny or clever. w/e

Most of the useful information could have been compacted into about 5 minutes, but it was entertaining.

Lol good job trying to get a rise out of people. More importantly, most people aren't like you. No big deal.

Not all people are the same, and its very obvious that they weren't very fair when they brought him on the show. Its very obvious he lives a pretty sheltered life regardless of the fact he plays video games.
