What the fuck is wrong with GD?
They're having a 100+ post flamefest about Guitar Hero, for chrissake!

And they say we Loungers have the dumbest flamewars ever.

5. Apparently the snobs in GD believe that you aren't allowed to have mindless fun...
...with your family. It has to be all serious all the time. :eyes: What the fuck is wrong with people. Greenbriar, I'm very excited for your family, having something fun to do together. The only family activity I remember vividly is leaving in the middle of the night so my dad wouldn't beat my mother because he was so drunk and she was drunk too and bitching at him. Your family is really lucky.

13. Fun is generally frowned upon by GD at times.
Everything must be both educational and good for you.

14. And EVERYONE around you, and no one can be offended.
If I was forced to live my life like that, I'd probably kill myself.

8. Ok, it's time to get in that thread and starting discussing how Guitar Hero is really
a new way to experience being a musician. Really play up how it really makes you as good as any so called real-guitarist. C'mon, who's with me?

11. THAT aspect would make sense
the part about strumming a guitar while saving Katrina folk sounds nauseating
