Pray to Gaben harder! Sacrifice more money!

It's not working. We need to sacrifice something more powerful. *stares at Ifreann*

If you can't understand that the right to vote is more important than playing video games, I think don't there's much I can explain.

Go outside, enjoy fresh air, maybe play some tennis, realise there is more to fulfilment in life than fucking video games.

I think you've been using them the wrong way. You're supposed to play video games, not fuck them.

Impossible since Gaben.exe was aborted decades ago, and is locked away in a file cabinet.

Yet ironically, by doing so, you've ACTUALLY just achieved the exact opposite in a more concrete and greater way (by permanently losing the right to play video games) than your participation in the voting process as an individual ever ACTUALLY contributed positively. Now that's fruit for thought when some people are so attached to a theoretical assertion of a right that they would stand by that even though the practical result is a concrete avoidable loss had they not done so. I'm not sure you've really thought this through. Your answer makes as much sense as a person saying he would be willing to set his house on fire and keep it permanently destroyed to secure his right not to have his house burned down (when the default position was that his house was in no danger). You have literally chosen to have permanently less rights in the very area that you claim your decision is helping to "safeguard." Now from where I'm standing, that is beyond silly and poorly thought out.

No. I'm saying that your hypothetical is entirely fucking stupid. Before seeing this thread, I did not even believe that a hypothetical could be this incredibly asinine. Your comparison doesn't make sense either.

Seriously, I don't know how you're getting straight As in law school when you make arguments this stupid.

If IM is really getting straight A's in law school, I think it says more about the school he's attending than it does about him.

I love video games, one of my favourite hobbies, but voting is more important as it can affect my life far greater and more importantly than Halo 5 or Fallout 4 could.

It's just a single vote....

...And?

Voting still affects my life more than playing video games does, as i am casting my support for different politicians whose policies can affect my life, for good or worse.

I find that far more important than playing a video game despite my great love for them.

You mean you want to take advantage of your right to vote?

... Yes? Wasnt that obvious from what i just said?

I want to be able to help decide who gets into power, and what they can do to affect my life.

That's not really a helpful attitude to take towards someone else's life.

your one personal vote will never decide an election nor directly change any policies...

on the other hand you are losing a LIFETIME of video gaming...

Well... it is your choice but... really?

I just don't see the value cost-benefit wise. You don't have to vote to enjoy the benefits of a government voted in by others. It honestly doesn't make that much of a difference which party is in power. They are all roughly centrists anyways.

Is this supposed to be a response to a position I've supposedly taken?
