Hate it when people use the excuse..

... "BUT ITS JUST A GAME!!!!" Normal people might not get it, but to us gamers, that's like asking to be hung upside down from the ceiling over a vat of radioactive goop filled with flesh hungry cybernetic piranhas. Yeah well, let troll bro Dan teach ya how to shoot back (I'm that bored right now :/ )

First things first. Tell them... That games... ARE JUST LIKE SCHOOL!! OMG?! REALLY? Yeah really. For the sake of argument, pretend that the game is WoW (can be subbed for any game you wish.) Pointers can be used:

You're paying (for games Pay2Play) /paid for the game. Just like school.

Yeah, your WoW subscription of about (assume) $20/month. Holy crap! That's just like your monthly school fees!! So if you can freaking pay for something that's worth as much as your school fees (maybe 3 months assuming the game you bought cost about $60), GO FREAKING PLAY IT WELL LIKE HOW YOU'D STUDY WELL!!

You paid for it, why not play it? So like you paid for school, why not study? Would be a waste, no?

Games are easy to learn, but hard to master. LIKE SCHOOL! Ever see those smart, studious peepz get high marks? Well, they mastered the subject thus more points, and games are not THAT different. They mastered it so why not they excel at it?

If y'all complain you dunno this, you dunno that. Why the pros have this, why the pros have that. Then kid, Imma tell ya to get of the game, idiot. Like how you'd feel that sense of achievement when you get top in class, these "no-lifers" get the same feeling when they managed to obtain that Legendary-ranked item they longed for so much.

So the next time y'all gonna say "ITS JUST A GAME!!" Imma gonna say back to ya kid "SCHOOL IS JUST A BUILDING!!" WHY ARE YOU OBSESSED ABOUT GETTING HIGH MARKS THEN?!?! AND YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE WANNA GET THE TOP OF THE LEADERBOARDS?!?! Screw you freaking bunch of whipper-snappers!!
