What's in a Post?
Didn't expect that eh? It's nice to have something different once in a while. Variety is needed once in a while. Perhaps marriage is like an MMO and the only way to get different content is to have kids. Different content, but not new.
So is gaming like masturbation? Something we do to pass the time? It is possible to get something more from gaming than a (really) good feeling such as social interaction by textual and/or vocal interaction as well as a visual sense in a limited way. It is possible to learn and use strategy as well as sharpen our hand-eye coordination. But is there anything we get from games? Few games are informative and even television can inform us, unless we are watching soap operas or "reality tv" shows.
In an aside, since i'm all over the place anyway. It's interesting that some purchasable items need to be edible to go on the market.
