    It isn’t just a question, it’s straight up loaded with implications, most blatant one being to specifically stress ‘adults’ twice, as if it wasn’t a question to you if it were children.

    People watch people playing sports, telling jokes or funny stories, acting drama, dancing… playing games fits that list so seamlessly that I can’t help but wonder wtf is wrong with someone asking why people would do it. It’s blatantly obvious loads of people like watching something they find cool and isn’t too mentally engaging, to wind down.

        We aren’t policing your speech, we’re saying your speech is making you come off as a douche. Context and the specific words you choose matter. If you’re concerned about the downvotes, as you appear to be, that’s why.

          Nah that’s exactly what you’re doing. I’ve said it a bunch of times already and yet chuckle fucks like you still need to get your two cents in two days after the initial post, telling ME the meaning behind my words. I’ve said the meaning behind my words over and over again in here. I’ve given no reason for anyone to assume I’m not genuine.

          Context? You mean, like the adults speaking of adults? Because that’s the context. Spin it all you want, but I’m right.

          Read this if you want. If you respond with some BS response telling me what words that I write mean I’m just going to block you, so just walk on.

          I don’t care, honestly. I’m taking a shit right now and reading lemmy.
