People who play video games have a higher coordination skill than people who don't. And people who are addicted to video games go into withdrawl and become mentally ill. Also, please remember that video games are a form of entertainment, whereas books are the basis for education, information and record-keeping and have been since the dawn of civilization. I don't understand why you're comparing a form of entertainment to an invaluable resource like books. If you think I'm against video games and want them banished from existence, I don't. In my OP when I listed the entertainment industry I was mainly referring to mainstream performance-related scenes like Hollywood, TV and some music related stuff (ex. Michael Jackson). Games are fun but only in strict moderation. I was comparing reading and video games since they can both be sources of entertainment. People don't just read to educate themselves. Reading for enjoyment have existed for as long as reading has been around. It doesn't have to be productive. Everything should be in moderation. Don't overdo anything. Games aren't that bad.

How could I have forgotten to add the airline industry in my OP? It's one of the leading causes of global warming after all.

To be fair, just complaining about everything does not make anything better either.

Well, what do you expect from someone who came from an abusive & neglectful household like me? Yes, I am an angry guy. But I still want to make it absolutely clear that my life's passion has always been nature and I have made it my life's ambition to fight against anyone or anything that threatens it. Cervantes I do NOT complain about everything. Do you not remember all the threads I dedicated to blimps, trains, veganism and all other sorts of great stuff and raved about them? Or what about all the great games & films I have expressed my love for like Streets of Rage 3, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, and so on?
