Where the wild things are.

So I am a gamer....

Often "gamer" is confused with nerd, dork, loser, someone who is generally anti-social, and my absolute favorite stereotype and I quote,"ZOMG, you are sucha dick man, are you gay? you must have never of seen a pussy before FAGOT."

Now aside from the 12 year old, lack of witty comment guy. I really don't care what other things I am referred to as. Just for the record though, I really thought it was funny that a 12 year old who I know for a fact is still a virgin, would ever tell me that I am "gay." But the fun thing about things game is people like that. I really wish i saved some of the conversations i have in game. I think this would be a really really fun thing to post about. But on this occasion I didn't.

Back on track though. I would like to stand up for all gamers. Yes, we display rather anti-social behavior. Let's face it though, the sun scares us! If we are out in the sun for more the 13.45 seconds we melt and we die. when a gamer dies and angel loses it's wing. (sad I know I almost tear up when I learned the horrible new as well.) But never the less almost all the stereotyping is right and well that fine by me. I actually love it. It is who I am.

And this is where it becomes REALLY taboo.

I was reading up on some of the "news" ( I use the quotes because the new we get is certainly biased and edited to see on view point.) from the past. And I was surprised to see how many times Music and Video Games are promoting violence. With that statement said I say to all the overly conservative mothers GO FUCK YOUR SELF. Now I understand that that language is uncalled for and crude and generally lacks humor in all ways. But I can not take it ANYMORE! I don't know how many more times I can sit here and listen to Mom's cry about how this video game changed my sons life and now he is a killer. If you honestly think you sons behavior has nothing to do with you. Then please stop reading here, go in to you perfectly arranged kitchen, grab a spoon, preferably a small one, and start stabbing your self in the ear.

If your child is killing some on its might be something you might have missed. I am not a psychologist so I will not try to explain why I think it happens but, I don't think a game is going to make me or my kids pick up a gun and kill someone because they know that is wrong. (not that i have kids but they would know.)
