I'll Start:

Once upon a time, man wanted more play time so he invented machines to do the work for him.
Eventually this complicated things.
So now he has less play time.

Once a upon a time, gamers wanted more play time and so they invented more rules to do the work for them.
Eventually this complicated things.
So now they have less play time.

It’s the nature of things I suppose.

Original D&D (1974) is the only true game. All the other editions are poor imitations of the real thing.

"The only opportunities you have are the ones you make for yourself. The only choices you have to make are the ones you choose to make."

Yes, I'm quoting myself. Screw you all.

Sounds like the philosophy of "The Sims".

The more stuff you have in that game, the more happy you become, but the less time you have to enjoy any of it. Fascinating take on reality.

Amen, preach it brother.

Gamers can be divided into only three categories:

Those that can count and those that can't.

Wrong. Hungry Hungry Hippos is the only true game. As someone else recently noted, it's even zen; the harder your hippo tries to capture the balls, the more you just push them away.

All else pales in comparison.

I knew a guy who had mastered the zen of Hungry Hungry Hippos, and would get a ton of balls.

We made him stop playing.
