Just wanted to point this out, games should not be lumped into the 'needlessly stupid things' category. Games are a mix of education and entertainment and actually make people smarter. They increase path-finding skills, help with personal finance and resource building and help children to learn goal setting skills. Of course they are also wonderful for Hand Eye Co-ordination and manual dexterity...countless hours of computer games
BTW did you know that if you can teach yourself to play the XBOX 360 then you can also acquire languages faster, especially sign language. Also games help kids develop creativity as they teach them to experiment and try new things without a serious fear of failure. The kids that are in my classes who spend their time playing games are WAAAAAY more advanced then their non-gamer counterparts. They make intelligent informed decisions and don't walk head first into problems. Their minds process data very quickly and they are able to multi-task much easier. One kid his mom is single, anyway she sets him over to the side of the class with an IPAD in hand filled with games. She has been taking English with us for YEARS and her son blows her a way in terms of skill. He talks a mile a minute about all the games he plays, the skills you need to make a head shot, and how different cars handle on a racetrack..
People need to get informed, games are NOT detrimental to health in any way shape or form. That's like saying education/training/learning is detrimental... tattooing is a way of showing face, the two have nothing in common. People get addicted to games because those people are addicted to learning, games provide a lot of stimulation that the slow paced world simply cannot. In a healthier world, girls also game and gaming habits do not interfere with 'the ability to pick up women'. Just cause North American slvts value stupid sh1t doesn't mean North American males have to subscribe and mold themselves to it.
Something about being back to nature, hunting and fishing are extremely boring past times to some of us. Spend 8 hours sitting in a tree with a friend, bored out of your fvcking mind, to frag one bear or spend 1 hour with your friend fragging 100 guys and saving the world. (and in the end, no one gets hurt). My family are all northerners and everything outdoorsy they find interesting bores the fvk out of me. Spending time outdoors? Doing what? Sitting around a campfire roasting marshmellows? That would last about 2.5 seconds for me.
