Again, if you read my whole comment you’ll see that I enjoy gaming too. I play all sorts of games as well.

And no, I wasn’t just talking about Call of Duty. The yelling cause someone"made"you mess up can and does apply to Zelda as much as it does Grand Theft Auto.

The behaviors are stereotypical of addicts, not gamers. And for a reason. You see it in Crack addicts too. Just for some, the drug of choice is the game, not a street drug. I’d be saying the same thing about a woman addicted to crochet so much that she got twitchy if somebody picked up her hook, left a mess all over the place, shrieked at anyone who came near her latest effort, and did nothing else to the detriment of the rest of the family.

I guess you also need to hear #NotAllGamers. I was not attacking games or gamers. Just observing that men have a tendency toward obsession and gaming *can be* addictive.
