JUST GET IN THE FUCKING ROBOT SHINJI

the realization that they have wasted their lives is always just below the surface, waiting. so, whenever things don't go their way they bluster and shout and just generally try to distract themselves from reality.

I realized that I've wasted my life and been quite open about it for a while now

Too bad real life doesn't have a reset button!

Unless you believe in reincarnation...

Hint hint.

(The hint is that you should convert to the Sikh religion, not that you should kill yourself, which is a thing you should not do.)

Yeah, as long as you're happy and fulfilled, that's about as much as you can ask for.

I have a feeling that getting all those sick rear end headshots or ultra combos or high scores or levels or whatever else isn't quite as deeply fulfilling as people who play video games might think, were they to compare that stuff to almost literally anything else that can be considered fun, though.

They're addicted to instant gratification and satisfaction, but if you do/say the wrong thing that may suggest that the thing they're so invested in is kind of pointless and meaningless, they can't handle it. Like I was wondering about the new metal gear survive backlash and whether it was deserved and i had a games goon jump down my throat and accuse me of trying to piss him off on purpose. Like not even SA is outside of it, I think I'm just going to give up on trying converse with gamers.

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
People turn to gaming as a hobby because they are bad at sports, can't get women, and have no cool friends. It's all these things that make them angry, not gaming.

Have you actually played games??? Because they make me really angry for real!!!

Also I know several people who are married and successful and have kids and they still take the disc out of the console and ping it at the wall when they're mad.

Good point. I do play games and they frequently make me furious. Dark Souls 2 made to want to nuke the planet is was so frustrating.
