I didn't say there was anything wrong with discussing/complaining on a video game forum. I'm here too. But using words like "really really sad" and "super bummed" for not getting a virtual shiny, when there so many other real problems in the world that we should be "really really sad" about, was a little over the top to me.

You're probably right that, like you, most video gamers "don't frigging care" about others' real problems. Guess that makes me a minority here, though I hope not.
