many hours here have I wasted, searing my eyes across the millions microscopically incinerating light emitting diodes that simmer atop this screen’s surface. It’s like I’ve been frying my eyeballs, doing irreversible damage to my once 20-20 scored vision. When the eye doctor asked what I did in my spare time to induce such seemingly inexplicable acute nearsightedness, I told him I had no idea.

Many calls I’ve ignored, invitations I’ve rejected, obligations I’ve neglected, employers I’ve disappointed, friendships I’ve tarnished, lies I’ve told, and dreams I’ve let pass me by in the name of having more time to sear my eyes across this sheet of seething light emitting diodes. These diodes ooze blood and gore, performances of wars I’ve never fought but can pretend I have. While LARPing in this truly pathetic way, calling myself a “badass” in my head, the closest I get to another human being is a collection of incoherent, half spelled vulgarities which always read the most heinous insults and obscene proclamations that can vomit forth from the unwashed anus of a human’s imagination. Such is the language of video gamers: hatred. For my part, I know that I’m comfortable and eloquent in the language of hatred for the simple fact that I spend most waking hours hating myself. Am I the only one with this suspicion or…?

I hope that, by the time you read this, I’ll have long since been logged off this god forsaken, bottomless void of wasted time. Video games. The true thieves of an entire generation of men.
