I remember the first time I played Maple Story (in my teens), a game from South Korea, and after I was online for about an hour a pop-up notified me that I had been on for a while and suggested that I should take a break. I had to take a few moments to bask in the shock and what that said about gaming culture in other parts of the world. It’s an online game and there was a mechanic in it to highlight that real world time was passing, ‘you’ve been on for a long time so maybe go take a break, the game will still be here when you want to log in again.’ I’ve since played other games from Asian studios with similar mechanics. (I know it’s most likely not something that’s across the board, there are probably laws related to it, and it doesn’t do anything in the face of a real addiction but it still gives me a little warm and fuzzy feeling to go along with the artificial feeling of ‘a company cares that their players don’t die doing 24 hour dungeon runs’)
Went to a suburban KFC with a friend to purchase two buckets of chicken, as our contribution to the office potluck. The counter person asked, ” Is that for here or, to go”. My co-worker grabbed my arm, looked into my eyes and calmly whispered, “No. Don’t. Calm down”… TF?
This is why it is so important to have great self dialogue. I dont rely upon the Americans, I just talk to myself. Like Ill tell myself No or talk to myself like a child have a conversation in front of people in a store.
Lord this was once a funny and eye-opening show now it’s just “what can we belly-ache about America today” And your whole skit here was just to complain about food service workers doing their job the way they are trained to do? No this show has become nothing but “Trash America Daily”
