OT Thank you Fortnite OT

BugFreak72

Not sure how many of you have kids that play Fortnite or even know what it is but the company purposely took their servers down since last week and it has been great. I have learned what it is like to have engaging teenagers again and really enjoy it! If you have gamer children that might be why you have seen them lately so enjoy!

That is all.

Today is a guv'mint holiday so I've had the news on a lot, and this morning on CBS were a LOT of home videos of the actual point the game got swallowed up by a black hole, and stopped.  
I was flabbergasted at how many people were screaming in agony, smashing their laptops with their fists (complete with sparks), even one spoiled punk who shattered his widescreen TV with a dinner plate.  
 
I hate to think this, but we're overdue for World War III.  Nobody has any concept of what's real, nor what's important, any more.  wtf.

Oh c'mon. Of course the news is going to show the melodramatic home videos (many of which were intentionally made to go viral no doubt).

The reality is that 99.9% of players just went..."Well...damn." And then started up some other game.

I'm kind of glad that I've always sucked at playing video games. I've saved a bunch of time and money because of it.

I hate video games.  I play reality games.  Hello, reality.
