47: Hey there, Maxim. Let’s have a casual conversation about video games.
MX: well all right then A 47 Danger. lets
47: I find video games to be fun and entertaining. What are your feelings?
MX: i disagree! i find them to be morally reprehensible and decadent!
47: Let us try and resolve this conflict. Give me an example of something that you find agreeable.
MX: i find reading books and respecting my elders to be agreeable
47: Then perhaps you would find a game like Call of Cthulhu, based on the works of H.P. Lovecraft right up your ally.
MX: the works of h.p. lovecraft are violent and suggest to children that its ok to look into the mouth of madness and worship elder gods
47: Maybe a game like Bionic Granny would be more to your liking.
MX: bionic granny would suggest to children that implanting metal and gears into their grandmother is ok and should be condoned
MX: despicable
MX: video games only serve to subvert children
47: Then how do you explain the video game habits of Old Grandma Hardcore, a 69 year old grandmother who is currently playing God of War on God Mode?
MX: easy. she is bad. a bad influence on younger generations.
47: Would it be out of line to say that you are bitter because your tastes and values are not held by these different generations?
MX: bitter is not the right word. use the word “correct” instead
MX: this generations ethics are wrong
47: Ethics do not come into it. Crime is constantly going down. Video games may actually be helping with this drop in criminal activity.
MX: but that doesn’t excuse the fact that we are raising a generation on violence and… gasp… sexual content!
MX: whether they act on those impulses or not, they are being trained to like them
MX: like them!!!
47: Sexual content is a taboo brought upon by the church to control the masses. It’s censorship that should have died on the cross with Christ.
MX: sexual taboo is a healthy way to keep children from being promiscuous
47: Then parents can do their job and keep their children away from items they feel are distasteful.
MX: which is what video games teach kids
MX: todays parents cant control everything a child sees. especially when they are too busy complaining about violent video games
MX: …
MX: oops
47: Ah HA!
47: Gotcha, you crotchety bastard. Get back into your coffin of old ideals and sleep forever.
MX: bleh! you have not won yet mortal!
