Arrested development/immaturity. They work part time, or not at all, and tend to live with their parents.


So judgy. As long as you aren't paying our bills it is none of your business. It is not our job to tell you why we like something.

We could ask how you walk around with the stick in your butt. But we don't care.

"I read on here and Reddit all the time" and you are criticizing how other people waste their time.

Playing video games is much more engaging for your brain than watching sports (the national pastime).

It's interesting how you've absorbed previous conventional thinking about which groups are "bad" and which groups are "normal", without applying any critical thinking whatsoever.



I have a friend who always claims that he kids have little to no screen time but that their TV is on all the time tuned to some sports channel. All. The. Time. The kids wake up and turn it on and stay up late to watch. I find it very hypocritical.

Sports are cool and grown men playing video games is for losers.


An adult who calls things "cool" and "for losers" is not to be taken seriously.


They weren't wrong though. DP


They are wrong. Nobody is a loser for enjoying video games and no one is cool just for watching sports. It’s a problem IF it becomes an addiction and you’re missing work because of video games or sport betting is out of control where you’re in danger of losing your house.

So what’s the difference between people watching TV or playing video games and you reading books? Someone watching a two hour movie, playing video games for 2 hours, reading a book for 2 hours. Not everyone is addicted to these and sit there for hours, they are forms of entertainment.

I think more my disdain is for people who are addicted to the detriment of other things. Like taking care of their kids, doing family outings, sleeping late in the mornings because they were up till 3am gaming. Obviously this is not the norm.
