Adults Shouldnt Play Video Games
Adults shouldnt play video games
I dont recall seeing this up here a few months ago. But figured id share this.
don't even need to watch it to know that adults can, and should, do whatever they want with their leisure time provided they are not harming others.

he goes further then to simply say what they should or shout not be doing. He claims adults that do are pathetic and 'special'; atking gaming, comics, etc.

You asked a wonderful question. Why do we play video games?
I am a mental health therapist. That's my full time job. I spend every day, all day, talking to people who have lost all hope. Children who have been raped, adults who have abusive spouses, homeless men and women scooping trash out of a garbage can, people with all matter of debilitating mental illnesses, and many others. I help get them medication, I help them work out their underlying problems, and I find solutions to assist them in becoming productive members of society.
You've become fond of posting images on your twitter about how you did amazing things while I was gaming. Well, Gavin, while you were building a bench, making youtube videos seen by nearly nobody, or riding around on a motorcycle like a badass, I was keeping people from killing themselves in their moments of despair and hopelessness.
You keep making your little table, Gavin.

I bet he's fun at parties.

Does he think wearing suspenders makes him an adult?

What does he actually do if he doesn't play games and can't watch TV. Is there anything else to life?

A boring person
I don't care, at all, about someone who plays video games. I care even less about people who have opinions about adults who play video games. I do care about getting a job with a game developer who has an adult target audience, because I have some ideas. This is all about making money, and the people who spend money have spoken, so...
*** YOU, PLAY THIS AWESOME GAME! and *** YOU, AINT ***IN THIS LIFE FREE, PAY ME!
NFL,MLB,FIFA,NHL,NBA.... lets get something straight, you ain't getting paid to watch those *** games, and you sure as ***ain't on the team. I see no therapist showing stats or professors complaining about the idea of spending time and money on that ***. THEN again! SPORTS YEAH!!
HIT EM JIMMY! KILL'EM!!! YEAH!
oh ***i think he broke his freakin neck
GREAT HIT JIMMY!
thats my son who just killed that kid!
oh he's goin' pro, you must be proud, how old is he? Ni...Seventeen! He signed with USC last week.

that's not the point, and I stand by my original assessment. some asshat thinks that adults who do X, Y, or Z are pathetic and HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE, because that's damn well what he means by 'special'. who is more pathetic, the person who is having fun, or the person who needs to tear others down so that he can justify his existence? here's a hint, it's probably not the former.... it's no one's business how someone else spends their free time as long as no one is being hurt.
unless you're into sadomasochism, then just keep it safe, sane, and consensual.

I'll always be a kid
Quote:
I don't wanna grow up, I'm a Toys R Us kid
There's a million toys at Toys R us that I can play with
From bikes to trains to video games
It's the biggest toy store there is
I don't wanna grow up, cause if I did
I couldn't be a Toys R Us kid

The dude in the OP is one such.

Well that's a whole new brand of special.
So... he's insulting electronic media and saying that games are for boys, and that MEN should act like MEN? And this guy supports gamergate, after stereotyping what the gaming audience should, and how men should act, who does he think he is Anita Sarkeseean?
By his definition, shouldn't a man not be wasting his time making gender stereotypical videos....? God damn hipsters. Another crap youtuber who knows nothing about the demographic he's reporting on. A lot of that going around lately.

Not a cool video.

I don't see this self proclaimed adult "man" surviving a week in the woods with a Swiss army knife and a flint. I do agree with about half of what he says though.. Since more than likely 90% of the "men" he is talking about couldn't either.
lol, yea.. Things are so much better now.
I guess my current occupation is ***, then...
