10 Ways That Gaming Is Destroying Your Life

Gaming is a fantastic pastime if you're the type of creature who enjoys wasting hours of your real-life spent in various sham universes playing out the stories of fake heroes and villains.

I feel the same way when I see some out-of-shape dad, shuffling around town in a Portsmouth Football Club t-shirt, holding a can of White Lightning and shouting at a passersby because this country [England] doesn’t care about the working class anymore. Even though that digression was totally convoluted, the point that it’s high-time you stop dressing like someone who hasn’t hit puberty still stands.

If you want to wear a Mario or Snake t-shirt, maybe partially hide it under a gentleman’s shirt and for the love of all that is Holy, don’t wear any preposterous video game merchandise, like novelty bags, arbitrary Halo straps or caps… Man I hate caps.

I’m not saying you should completely abandon your personality and pretend to be something you’re not. Oh wait, yes I am. Scratch that last part.
