Rich, sheltered suburban kids completely unaware of reality? Definitely gonna be a relatively strong libertarian presence.

It's amazing how all those who come up with this hyper-original meme tend to fit the description perfectly themselves.

Zing! So original!

I think I've bought one video/computer game in the past 7 years, FTR. Nice try, though.

The point was that spending so much time in video games removes you from reality, hence the "unaware of reality" bit. But perhaps I was foolish to assume you understood something so obvious.

If video gamers are like that, then you might as well add movie buffs and book lovers that fit the description. Or your just being elitist :cool

I would wager the average movie buff spends quite a bit less time watching movies than the average gamer spends gaming, but I can't prove that.

And it depends on what kind of books. Personally, I would exempt many non-fictional books. Wink

Indeed, perhaps you are a fool.

Of course, there are other ways to be removed from reality, such as spending 238 days on US Election Atlas (in b4 lame tu quoque).  But I wouldn't have expected you to understand something so obvious.

bgwah(3:11:45 PM):   i got into an argument with wormy
Kalwejt (3:11:54 PM):   lol
bgwah(3:12:00 PM):   hes looking at my profile now
bgwah(3:12:06 PM):   $10 says hes going to post # of days i spent online
Kalwejt (3:12:10 PM):   ZOMGZ
Kalwejt (3:12:14 PM):   HE'S GOING TO REPORT YOU!
Kalwejt (3:12:28 PM):   He's tellinhg on you to teh moderators

I win! I win! Trolls tend to be predictable creatures.

So, what you're saying Wormyguy, is that I (the non-libertarian) have spent approximately 8.8% of my time since joining online, while you (the libertarian) have spent 24% of your time online here? Thanks for proving my point. Smiley
