For all the video game nerds

You people will argue about anything! How is this shit even up for discussion? Everyone knows that you need to relax to get quality sleep. Playing Call of Duty for two hours is the opposite of relaxation. That’s why it’s fun!

 

At least thousands. Like I said above, this stuff is common knowledge.

 

So is global warming.

 

While I don't game nearly as often as in my teens/twenties, I still find it an occasional method of relaxation/escape. Most times it is just 45 minutes to an hour, mostly sports/racing games as they are single serving and don't require much investment. Last long-term game I played to completion was Fallout 4. I've never found it difficult to fall asleep afterwards, and I still manage to get in a solid workout 5 days a week.

The whole "nerd in his mothers basement" is a tired, outdated trope............the gaming industry is the biggest it's ever been, and is more mainstream than ever. Are there folks that abuse it? Of course.....but no more than anybody else who is hooked to something that brings them enjoyment.

 

I experienced difficulty getting to sleep when playing games when I changed my TV to a 65 inch LED 4k. The light coming out of there was just so effing bright, it was like daylight sometimes. Now books, however stimulating, will certainly help me go to sleep.

 

First-world problems.

 

Are you hitting on me?

 

Other commonly known things that aren't true either.

1. You won't go blind sitting close to a television set.
2. Hair won't grow on your palms from daily self abuse.
3. No your face won't get stuck that way.
4. Grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence.
5. Fat girls don't always say yes.

 

I don't like being wrong...but I was close.

 

I’d hit on you...






With a baseball bat.

 

Are you sure you know how to operate one? Maybe there is an internet article or video that explain it to you.

 

I’m quite sure I could figure it out. If not, my bare hands would get the job done easily.

 

See! Nickle handy night at the truck stop has taught you something!

 

Anger issues? Maybe sit around trying to grow hair on your palms. I hear that can be quite relaxing then maybe those pesky video games won't keep you awake.

 

eh man im up at 3am. at 930 im struggling to keep the eyes open regardless of lights or patterns or any shit going on in my brain. i shut it off, brush my teeth and crash for 6ish +\- hours before i start my caffeine addiction back up.

 

Just fed up with you two pussies and your petty bullshit. I'd really like to meet each of you in person. Your shitposting has gotten ridiculous.

 

You really need to get off the Internet for a few months.
