Why do you play video games?

Why do you play video games?

Why don't you read a book instead? Why don't you learn a useful skill?

Why not?

Because I've completely exhausted the gay romance genre after binge reading hundreds of books I pirated. I need something to pass the time for a few months until I can get a steady supply of new books. That thing is video games.

>why do you listen to music? why don't you cook some food?
those things aren't mutually exclusive and have nothing to do with each other

why should I read a book or learn skills I don't really need when I could be playing video games

I have useful skills. I can play cello, drums, guitar all quite fluently. I lift and run. I write. I even do motorcycle repair.

Also, reading is still consuming media, and thus a garbage-tier hobby.

Already written and published 3 books. I can happily live off of royalties from them while I play video games until I die.

>Why do you play video games?

Because it's the only thing I actually find relaxing. Movies and TV are boring garbage. I watch a lot of sports but I'm a hardcore fan so I end up getting depressed over my team.

>Why don't you read a book instead?

My whole childhood was reading books. All I'd do in my free time was read fiction. I do reading nowadays but it's normally factual shit on the net about random sciences or some other interesting facts.

>Why don't you learn a useful skill?

I am. I'm in education (mechanical engineering) and do other things on the side too.

I'm to intelligent to read books.

BECAUSE ITS NOT 1850 ANYMORE AND THERE ARE MORE FUN THINGS TO DO NOW

GUUHDOOOYYYYYY

I didn't need the reminder that this exists user.

read a lot of shit for work, fuck you, let me play

What are they about?

books are for niggers

>tfw to inteligent to waste time on self improvement in a world where I will inevitably die

'cause I'm fucking stupid.

>Why do you play video games?
I like interactive media and problem solving.
>Why don't you read a book instead?
This is not the 1800's, famalam.
>Why don't you learn a useful skill?
I already know programming.

>tfw you realize the only things you ever accomplished in life were in video games

i've been playing video games since I was young

teachers don't give you good grades for reading books, they give you good grades for passing the tests.

cause its video game season. ill get into book reading after january when vidya season dies down.

>Bannerlord gets released
>"vidya season dies down"

>Why don't you read a book instead?

>reading books
>not listening to audiobooks while you play video games.

>to inteligent

Apparently not.

I have a very creative and meaningful career. Once I am home I no longer need to justify my existence.

because I want to die

dumb feelposter

nihilism is pretty good bro

>tfw too intelligent to breathe

I want instant gratification

because i want to cum in your face user

you're just a drain on the planet and everything around you

>to inteligent

I like this meme

>tfw learning to meditate
>have to learn to focus on breathing without manually breathing

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Why do books get praised so much? Writing a book requires no talent, only something most people learned as part of their mandatory education - you just think of something and write it down.

Because I am not a useful gay feelfaggot who blames all his shitty choices in life on video games.

if video games never existed we'd all be fixed, user. Not the broken messes you see on Sup Forums.

video games... need to die. that is the price of freedom.

I took out three books on Stonehenge once (long story,) and totally forgot about them.
A year later, I found them in my room!
"Uh oh," I thought, "I'd better get these back to the library... But I don't want to have to pay a fee!"

So I brought them to the library but didn't formally return them! I just tucked them under some Tom Clancy's!

Then, a week later, the librarians called my house and asked me if I had the Stonehenge books and said that there were no late fees on them anyways but if I didn't return them I would have to buy them.

And when I went back and checked under the Tom Clancy's, the Stonehenge books were gone!

So now I owe the library like $300 dollars and I've just been avoiding them all this time.

>go through 5 years of university to work on a professional job for 40-50h per week, also regularly reading new studies from the field on my free time
>get home from the work and want to relax with vidya
>"b-but you should do something productive"
Fuck off.

if ur to intelligence why are yuo postnig here? im morre inteligencencer than you

...

Wow, this thread is just exceptional garbage even by Sup Forums standards.

Nah I would probably be deeper into Anime and reading, I like the balance I have with all three otherwise I would be a complete social autist.

This too. I spend most of my time in college or working, if games do not affect either of them I do not see the problem.

shut up nerd, go play with your barbie dolls and pokemon

Because I spend 12-16 hours a day to improve myself by going to work and university, hitting the gym and go cycling. When I have the time, I just want to escape this burden by playing some vidya and just letting it all go for a second.

At least now, that I don't have any free time, I'm finally able to enjoy vidya on those rare occansions.

>tfw the right-most post in the /sci/ catalog screenshot is your thread

I know how to make fire, does that count?

Anyone can write a book
Most people don't get published, much less be successful

Want to fight about it?

>He doesn't know
Getting published hasn't been hard for years user

Because I prefer to play videogames.

the noose will help you escape this burden, normie

I'm not intelligent enough

lesbians or homoshit?

So what?

Shit, I've been doing it wrong for years.

I read and play video games.

Im an brainlet

Lurk more

Finally, a wojak for the average man like me.

>tfw been lurking for 5 years and this is my first post on Sup Forums

Oh boy, it's the loser NEET who thinks that Sup Forums is some kind of a secret club for the socially retarded and underachievers in life.

Because I'm at work all day and want to have fun in my free time.

I do both, read when I'm bored of vidya and vidya when I'm bored of reading. So jokes on you

>Why don't you read a book instead? Why don't you learn a useful skill?
No fukcing point I will die anyway. Everything is fucking pointless.

>Why don't you learn a useful skill?

He says this while posting the same reddit image over and over again like an autist.

dear OP, i´ve learned mutliple languanges. i got education in a work field. hell, i produce entertainment. i´ve been in multiple sports teams.

So I can pick up Doom or some cheap, slow copies of it like Overwatch or Halo and you can go read right now. We both will in the end benefit from this shit equally as much by the time of death.

I don't have any ambition

>Reading Technical books

What a fag

Wrong, he's the loser NEET who thinks ALL of Sup Forums is for your points listed.

Because fun things are fun. That is why I play video games and watch anime.

Sadly it's the only hobbies I have.

I'm too lazy to exercise, I don't know how to play any physical sport, I don't know how to play any instrument, I don't know any kind of martial arts. I don't read book as a hobby too.

But, at least, like most people on here, I am having fun, right? That's what matters.

>there are people on Sup Forums who are even more losers than I am
Feels good.

Where do you think you are?

>This guy seems coo...
>Tripfag
nvm

I'm using racing/driving sims to get better at driving fast/drifting.

Looking to start competing for real over the summer. Using rFactor and Assetto Corsa, both have the same car that's in my garage and that I'll be using and are fairly decent quality sims.

Also touge/mountain road driving is fun as fuck and legitimately the most difficult thing I've ever done in vidya

Vidya can teach useful skills sometimes, too.

I think I'm on Sup Forums, which happens to stand for vidya. Have I misunderstood something? I'm not welcome here anymore, now that I'm not a NEET anymore?

You have an Alfa Romeo?

>tripfag
He's a namefag you nu-Sup Forums

No. '94 rx-7, in rFactor with mods, Assetto Corsa with DLC - the latter's stock and more or less identical to mine

I want to see if my local library has Dante's Inferno. I want to practice my Italian before I forget it quickly.

Who says I can't do those 3.

that picture is fucking disgusting dude

>Why do you play video games?
To have fun and relax.

>Why don't you read a book instead?
Because I'm too busy reading other things and playing video games.

>Why don't you learn a useful skill?
I already have one.

>tfw to smart to enjoy sports

sory for posting pictrue low iq canot comprehensible

But I am.
Doesn't mean I can't also play videogames during breaks.

>you can have more than one hobby
Really makes you think

Because I don't give a shit to prove myself to others and I am fine with the way I am (except for still fapping to all kinds of degenerate porn, but nobody is perfect)
