Topic	Why is video games seen as the universal waste of time hobby?
Herugrim 02/12/18 7:47:40 PM #16:	It is one of the more time consuming hobbies. Most hobbies wind up taking 1-2 hours a day, a couple days a week and still make good progress. Games are striving more and more for that 100 hours post. Not exactly something you can manage in a few hours a week. Also it's still kinda the newest one, so it gets crap for that. Books were a giant waste of time until radio came along. The Television came along and that was a big waste of time. People likened watching television to brain control. I suppose social media would be the next step, but can you really criticize social media while on social media? --- John Watson: "Well it isn't obvious to me."
