Me and my girlfriend were out last week with a friend of hers, her new boyfirend and a few of his friends. At one point all four of the people I had just met found it more interesting to have their eyes affixed to their blackberries then engage in any kind of human discourse with me, my girlfriend or even each other. It was WEIRD and totally made me hate them.
i was thinking of buying halo odst for my son for christmas. has anyone played it and on a scale of 1 to 10 with perhaps mario cart as a 5 how do you rate it ?
Originally posted by huckleberryhoundWhy limit it to dinners out? When they leave the house/office/car well you get the point ...there should be a Mobile Policeman/woman there to make them turn them off.. Ever been in a theatre when all of a sudden AC/DC's Thuderstruck interupts the performance? Ban the "buggars".
Because you're trying to lump video games into the same catagory as say....model soldeirs, or toy cars.
Why do people with mobile phones talk on them during dinner out? That's my personal bugbear with modern technology.

Originally posted by trev33I don't play video games. I cannot get the motor skills down and I grow bored in about 30 seconds. I think I have played video games twice in the last ten years. It's a matter of taste. My kids play with their dad and have a lot of fun. I think that's just one way they have a good time together. I don't see the point, but that's because I'm no fun. But they are funny to watch.
why do so many 'adults' own and regularly play video games? i thought this was something everyone grew out of, like weekly baths but seemingly i'm mistaken. why so?
Nothing wrong with it unless you are an adult who is playing all day and not earning a living because you cannot stop playing games. Then it's obviously a problem.
Originally posted by darvlayHe's missing some masterpiece tv. Dumbass. Some of the best moments can only be presented by actual human beings on tv while other moments can only be imagined. It's a beautiful thing.
I have a friend who likes to get on his high horse when discussing television. He always claims "TV is such a waste of time" like he's some kind of hero when all would do is sit and read books (fiction) all night. What is the difference between wasting your time watching TV and wasting your time reading novels?
