Video Games and Adults

I think of it like this, most people will watch 1-2 hours of TV a day and instead of doing that I would rather participate in my TV time.

Started breaking in to your time memorizing the thesaurus, and learning how to sound like a complete douchebag, eh?

You guys crack me up with the thesaurus crap. It's called having a photographic memory and a college education. And being in two different demanding careers that require you to use your brain in order to do your job effectively. And ask Dr. Dave just how fun it be to not be able to mentally let go of the sometimes graphic nature of being in pre-hospital or definitive care medicine. He handles it fine. I didn't and ended up in PTSD class and prematurely ended a career path.

I promise you there are worse miscreants in this society than little 'ole me. I'm honest to a fault, and I don't leech off society.

I feel for you that someone with a heightened vocabulary gets under your skin to such a degree. Either that or your just projecting because your Cowboys continue to do what they do best, and that is find new ways at becoming even more proficient at losing football games.

If my posts annoy you, then use the ignore function.

I guess I'm old (32) all these new games make me dizzy

i haven't played much recently but when i do get caught up in a game it will typically save me money by keeping me at home. there is typically a big decline in food and drink expenses for those few weeks.

I just found the games are all the same over and over again. Got boring.

My XBox360 is used as a Media Center for Movies more than anything....we use it sometimes with the Kinect when people are over.

This and that was the main reason I bought it. With it and Vuze I stream my downloads to it and watch all the movies we want.

The last video game I played a lot of was Quake 3. At least you were playing other people and interacted with them via chat, team speak, etc....

i'm a big kid at heart, and i find it a fun detachment from the monotony of punch-in punch-out work.

And yes, it will save you money from going out and boozing. At least for me it will.

I only play if there's a game that I really like, and I'll play like a fiend for a while, then I won't play a game for weeks or months. When Skyrim comes out, I'll probably disappear for a few weeks, but once I beat it, I'll be done until Mass Effect 3 in March.

If you had a photographic memory you wouldn't be wrong when attempting to dole out medical information. I recall more than once Dr. Dave had to come in and correct you.

In the last 5 years i think i have less than 10 game hours in front of a TV.. words with friends and hangin with friends might be a diff story lol....

[Pro88LX]

any of you losers wanna sell your xbox 360?

[OreoStang]

We have a xbox 360 and a wii. I play a fee hours a week. Mostly COD, NBA2K11 and the new batman. I'm 26, married, no kids, and about 55 hours a week. It is just a good stress reliever.

Uh huh.

Dave just gets bent when he thinks I'm speaking outside the scope of Paramedicine.

Not realizing that all you do is spend hours upon hours doing your clinical rotations with ER docs (ER rotations) , Anesthesiologist (ET Tube requirements), Obstetrics (Requirements for child birth either vaginal or cesarean), Trauma at Parkland/JPS Ft. Worth, Advanced Medical Terminology, etc....There is just no way possible you are taught or exposed anything outside of State EMT-P course requirements. Actually, I'm a NREMT-P, but I wouldn't want to make things too complicated around here in regards to the difficulties related to that.
