    As someone who has played video games most of their life and came up with every excuse in the book to avoid reading, I’m letting you know that you should try to develop an appreciation for it.

    It will help you out in the long run, and give you something to do in your free time that, to be frank, doesn’t make you seem like such a loser.

    I’m just being honest and hoping you can learn something from my mistakes.

      I do appreciate books and people that read, I have tried it and I know its just not for me. I also do not watch movies or TV, I dont enjoy jigsaw puzzles or puzzle boxes, and I loathe anything happening in the ocean. Im aware of who I am as a person and I know what I do and do not like.

      Video games are not a loser medium, that way of thinking has nearly died out in the last 15 years and the industry is probably the biggest form of entertainment in the world, for a reason.
