Then we have much to fear. Much. To fear.

Oh, God, she's so ignorant. So mother-fucking ignorant. Video games aren't addictive. You don't play them because you are addicted. You play them because you either have an obligation to strap into a mech-suit and bust some aliens faces in or you want to have fun. Probably both, seeing as the former is what generates the latter. Video games are made by game developers because there is a demand for them. Where there's demand, developers will supply. Small-time game developers, indies, to be precise, are the ones who do it because they enjoy games. They enjoy games so much they want to bring their vision away from just them and to the masses. They may be simple. Simple is fun. And you can play through it knowing someone poured at least a month to get that shit up on X-Box LIVE.

Frumpy Mom, or Jack-olin Thompson as I will call her, doesn't get it. Brains don't rot, they grow. Your brain needs to process what is going on in a TV show, while you're playing, basically whatever you do that could be classified as a problem strains your brain. Terrorists guarding hall, I have only 2 clips left for my M-16, low ammo on all weapons. What do I do?

You think. You know, remember, the thing you use your brain for? Or just think of a puzzle game like Scribblenauts. You need to fly over the huge pillar, over the crocodile pit, and time the fall so you don't fall through the fire. You know that your jet-pack you've made doesn't have enough fuel for you to do everything. So you fly on the pillar, recharge, wait for the fire to go away, jump off the pillar, over the pit, through the flamethrower, and you get the Starite. You had to think. You think in all video games. You think and have fun. That's how it should be, and that's how it is.

I guess I'm too stupid to become a lawyer since I am a gamer. Time to drop out of school and become a nobody.

Isn't that remark she made about Columbia a bit racist?
Is that surprising considering her black child is called "Cheetah Boy"? She didn't adopt him from an agency, she just found him on her last safari...

OT - Yeah... She's a moron. I fail to see how riding an elephant or watching lions have sex will make you any more prepared for the "real world" than blowing shit up in a game.

Just wait till 4chan gets wind of this shitstorm.

"Frumpy Mom" reminds me of the WORST trolling fanboys that used to infest GT-forums like some lice on a hobo.

I don't think she has ANY idea what she has walked into, the internet has RULES BIOTCH! I'm still surprised that Godwin's Law not only originated on the internet but is mainly used only on the internet or by internet users. We KNOW about crap like Trolls and Fanboys and know how to deal with them, we know all the tricks in the book and this isn't like some spoken debate where you can browbeat and filibuster your way to winning, it is ALL on the record to be dissected and "fisked" to within an inch of its life.

I'd prefer to be a devil-child with low self esteem, than a spiteful, ignorant middle-aged woman who describes herself as frumpy and probably has never played a game in her life and has nothing better to do than make these uninformed blogs.
Win.

Maybe the reason her kids are under-achieving is because they have an insufferable, soul-sucking, kill-joy for a mother.

I wonder if she is religious?

*cracks fingers* Alright, this video games are evil war has gone on far enough. You're going to get this with every single form of entertainment, artificial or not. I despise particularly the fact that video games are constantly made stabs at for the sake of other more damaging social activities. This is because usually the debater has NO FUCKING IDEA about video games at all, and would benefit from the experience that other gamers have had with video games. People think they can say this stuff because people assume the gaming medium is a weak bunch of socially awkward nerds. It's coming off her in droves, she doesn't know what she is talking about. What about films? What about books? What about drugs, alcohol, legal fucking firearms? Video games don't kill people.

I'm 18 years old, have played video games since I was 5, and got 2 A grades in History (100% in a module) and English and 1 B in Biology at A Level. Sure, I'm a little bit cynical and quite a prick, but games haven't exactly done that to me, other people have. My biggest gripe with this mid-life crisis, attention seeking troll is that she assumes being socially inept, having a low self-esteem and being basically a nerd are HORRIFIC DISEASES THAT MUST BE CURED! Whatever happened to free will? It's my fucking choice to play video games, and by God if I want to be socially awkward, a nerd or have a low self-esteem, then I'm going to, because this is my life and I control it, not some middle-aged wanabe lawyer that thinks I should stop. What people need to realise is individuals. Gamers don't all have the same 'hate everyone, going to stay in my room and eat cheetos' personality, it's full of individuals, some with great intelligence, wit and aspirations. Gaming isn't a fucking disease, it's an art form with limitless potential. But, oh no, I don't have any critical thinking skills, ie, what any obnoxious, self-righteous asshole needs. Just read 'The History Boys' by Alan Bennet. It's not a real subject. It's simple really, when your child wants to play video games, you don't let them. Sure, they'll be hopeless stuck ups with no soul or happiness, but at least they'll be popular! Because that's what life is all about, being famous and popular.

And yeah, I fucking knew who Einstein was. I'm not a retarded Nematode Worm. Do you know who Ayn Rand is?

I've been gaming since Primary School.
Low self esteem induced by gaming?
No, a string of girlfriends and hordes of friends prove otherwise. Only time I had low self esteem was when I was mercilessly assaulte by chavs every day of my life three years straight.

Unable to think?
I'm currently studying for a degree, so I think I can.

Socially backwards?
No, especially not with other gamers.

Frumpy and middle aged?
Oh no, wait, I'm not a bizarrely right wing christian fundamentalist whackjob.

I remember reading in one of her crappy blog posts "We just got home from church", so to answer that: :X

by paying attention to this woman you're giving her more hits. Which brings more popularity regardless of if you hate her or love her you're increasing her popularity.
I call this the 'Howard Stern phenomenon'

minus the lawsuits

(damnit, you stole my future meme XD)

Give it a few weeks (or less, at this rate) and everyone with half a mind will run this ***** off the Internet. Seriously, someone shove a pacifier in her mouth and push her out the door, because obviously she's just in this for the attention.

EDIT: Video games don't depress me. Real life does a good enough job of that. /thread

No offense, but why the fuck does everyone care so much about what one ignorant blogger does or doesn't like?

Okay, now I'm piss'd. I play my X-box everyday, and yet, I'm the best writer in my English II class. Oh, I also listen to. *Gasp* Hollywood Undead.

Quote this Frumpy!
Yeah, but... Hollywood undead kind of... You know... suck? ;)

Good on you 'bout the writing though! Do you write outside of class at all?

I think the best thing to do in these situations is to just ignore the lady.

Hahaha lets just say a few things:
Alcohol addiction centers but its not going away.
Cigarettes people get addicted but its not going away.
Religion people get addicted but its not going away .
And yes Video games people also get addicted but they shall not go away.
Anything can be addictive it depends on people and situations taking isolated things out of context proves nothing, unless you show me proper evidence of a correlation between video games and the many things they supposedly cause then you can go fuck yourself.

"All you have to do is ask any teacher about his or her students' critical thinking skills these days and you will hear a TORRENT of horror stories about kids who have lost the power to think.

Where do you think that's coming from?"

I dunno, people like you, inbreeding.
