   Faith in humanity restored

   Take this NRA

   Has this old woman ever hurt anyone??

   Admittedly their argument is that young people are affected

   Games keep this old ladies brain active

   Yeah, she’s playing GTA IV by day, but after dark I bet she’s roaming the streets beating, shooting and robbing defenceless young men.

   Won’t somebody PLEASE think of the white males aged 18-40?!?!?

   Living the dream! I can’t wait to retire and play video games all day long. Hopefully in a nursing home where someone brings me food

      And changes your adult diaper for you so you don’t even have to interrupt your gaming in order to void your bowels.

      Aaaaahh… that’d be the life.

   I estimate by 2040, retirement homes will be well on their way to becoming LAN gaming heaven on earth.

      They sent me there to die but instead I made 16 new l33t friends. Ah retirement can’t come quick enough. Yelling at old Bill that the Dreamcast was the first console to go online while he yells the Xbox was over me.
      Then Jan comes along and says that the Mega Drive had a cable adapter in Japan and they all call her senile.
      Bring on 2040

   And all you’ll need for the 50 geriatric LAN is a SteamBox?

   What better way to spend retirement? Meals and board provided with around the clock medical care. Comfy chairs. Playing games and building monster PC’s with all that spare cash. Assuming I’ll be old and getting Centrelink 2.0 that is. Think I’m gonna save for a decent set of dentures so I can eat the Dorito’s.

   One of my earliest post Atari 2600 memories of gaming was on NES when I was about 7 or 8 years old. I was in hospital for a time and needed to take medicine and monitoring every 4 hours. That 4 hours had dwindled into about 3 after all the Doogie Howsers were done, so I had a terribly irregular sleep pattern. As a result though I was allowed into the recreation room to do as I pleased any hour of the day. Excite Bike, Duck Hunt, Super Mario and Kung Fu were what I remember best.

   The other kids on the ward were only ever awake during the day so by night, I became the NES master. I was in said hospital for a little over a month I think. Not quite 2.

   I love the idea that as the newer generations age there could well be a retirement home solely catering for games/ tech enthuiasts. Plus the whole mentally active thing… And if such a place exists while I’m still alive I’ll be there with cardigans. Imagine the cosplay events we could have!!!

   What a fitting end. Owning them noobs while I shit my nappy. Chowing down Dorito’s.
