I don't mean to sound judgemental, but am I the only one who thinks the only thing more pathetic than an adult man (or woman, but it's usually men) who sit in their basement, playing video games all day long is the person who watches these people do so on youtube or what is it called, Twitch?
Maybe I am starting to show my age.

I never really got into video games. My kids did but I'd rather read stuff online than play games.
I think you can take anything too far. Too much of anything isn't healthy. (Except craft beer)
;D

I say do all in moderation - don't let things like video games become an obsession.

It's a hobby like anything else. Some guys like woodworking, some like tinkering with cars, some watching tv, some play video games, some read, some swim, etc. etc. etc.
We can get distracted because we personally don't like something that someone else does, but that's our own bias creeping in. They aren't bothering or hurting me, so live and let live.

Video games like other electronic things such as texting and email and first book are purposely designed by their creators to be making more and more addicted it’s called “ process addiction”

You could say that shaving our heads is a process addition. ::)

When I was younger I was in to video games but then they got too advanced and I got motion sickness from them. Now, if it's raining or a bad day, I play some solitare but that's it. I do watch some youtube yard things to get some good tips so I can take care of my yard.

Video games are also specifically designed to groom children into gambling
-
Video games also desensitize children to extreme violence it becomes
‘normal”
It is my personal belief that this acceptance of violence as a normality is more responsible for mass shootings than the guns that are used to perpetrate them! When people live in a world of extreme violence in the matrix it crosses over into the real world very easily

Yes!!! I am hooked on wet shaving with a DE. Pre-shaves, soaps, after shave stuff, blades etc.
As I learn more it gets more and more addicting.
Better than drugs I guess?
::)

Yes, definitely better than drugs!! And it makes you look and
feel o so much better - and you can’t say that about drugs!

Lol, that's so random.
