Jack thompson wins (i die a little inside)

In case you didnt read this yesterdayI had to role play as an anti-game lobbyist today and I killed my competition.

He came out on the offensive talking about how he has gamed all his life and been a straight A student with no problems blah blah blah... I attacked with a comparison to guns (millions own guns but it only takes the few crazy thousand to run up the death toll) and started talking about columbine, the WoW parents that forgot they had children, and all the super cereal "studies" that proves that my favorite hobby will soon make me a homicidal level whore that can shot every gun made for a headshot in real life.

My competition sucked and I buried him so deep the proffesor said "I guess this proves that games are truly bad for society". When he said that I felt like I got kicked in the stomache. Usually i dont mind being the bad guy but as soon as the proffesor said that I started spouting all the reasons why what I was just arguing was bullshit.

The proffesor gave me extra points for arguing a point that i was so strongly against in real life and i held on to my championship title as MASTER-DEBATER(7-0)

Hey! I'm Master Debator in D-toid fantasy football, and I'm only 3-4. Boooo!!!

also, great that the prof gave you bonus points for arguing back that, no, really, I'm full of shit. I know that sounds tacky, but I mean it in a good way.

Do you smash your opponent's head with a Hammer Bros. hammer after you beat them?

Also lulz @ Mxy.

Good job winning man. I love playing Devil's Advocate.

Did you send the gay pr0n to your teacher beforehand?

I hate how I always think of something else after I hit add comment...


You obviously won a losing battle here but was your opponent really prepared? I believe he could have blown you out of the water had he REALLY done some intense research. But thats the difference between you and your opponent. You did better research and come much more prepared.

You should have taken a dive at the very end, say you had suddenly "seen the light", and started citing evidence against yourself. You could have won and lost the debate, all at once.

Nice. I don't know if I could have stomached it.

The thing is, after the debate, if a teacher tells me that, i would have gone straight and said the truth about videogames and at the same time explain why is so important to use the brain from time to time and maybe some logic with people so over confident over their arguments.
