The Sun. WELL, the fountain of wisdom has spoken. Actually I thought the

WAS the problem. This leads me to believe Old Keithy just likes to snipe at games because she can't get the teenagers to take the garbage out when she screeches at them(haven't we all been there).

Well, I guess I gotta stop eating games then.

Rather than just ***** about the idiocy of this Doctor, I thought I'd find some more of his work.

This is from the Times, which he also writes for.

Please note how many Doctors are telling him he's talking out of his arse.

As for the Currant Bun, tests have shown that the 'papers' reading age is 8. That tells you all you need to know.

Please, I came to that conclusion 5 years ago.

And you did nothing to stop this epidemic? You fool!

Hmmm... stay inside, play games and get fat, or go outside in the sun and get cancer.

Decisions, decisions....

Why not at night (and get robbed)?

Fat? Ha-Ha-Hahahaha

I'm underweight, buddy.

Food makes you fat. Not the pastime. Sure, playing a game won't get you into shape but you sure as hell can't gain anything by doing nothing. Yes, I know I'm being a nitpicking little *****, but video games don't directly make you fat. They can indirectly make some fat, should they not do other exercise out of their free time. But, whatever. It sounds like another Jack Thompson is coming on.

And I'm sure this has nothing to do with the fact that overprotective parents won't let kids out of their sight to go and play outside.

God damned baby boomers. Is there nothing wrong with this world that isn't their fucking fault?

Dr. Keith

I recently caught my teenage kids playing virtual tennis.

Oh the humanity! Of all the things which you could have "caught" you teenagers doing, why did it have to be that most heinous corrupter of mankind, Virtual Tennis. Truly God is dead.

 

[Jamash]

Apologies for the double post.

"All those leisure hours we used to fill with climbing trees or kicking balls have gone,"

He obviously hasn't played God Hand.

Being a skinny twig isn't attractive (or healthy) either.

Oh, I know, I'm skinny, not as a twig. I don't look it, but I am underweight.

I dunno, Cliffy B. has some serious guns last time I checked.

I manage to be a pretty big gamer and still maintain a rather decent shape. I'm above American military physical standards for my age group and I've managed to hack it on a wrestling team and earn a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. And I'm a guy who beat Resident Evil 4 and Metal Gear Solid 3 within two days of recieving them.

As am I. So, where's how's the theory holding up now?

Am i the only one who thinks this doctor is sexist, and naive? I've played games to an extreme (one time 9 hours. Eh, i didn't have anything to do then, summer in Dubai is HELL ) and my BMI is what? 23? Besides, the Wii is already doing well for people. Vinnk from 4colorrebllion lost a lot of weight from playing Wii Fit. The least she could do is sign her kids up at some extra cirricular activites. God knows how much they weigh.
