Anybody have a funny stories about how playing a videogame proved not to be a waste of time? heres mine:

I had a history test on ww2 for history in the 10th grade and went home with my mind set on studying. Instead, of opening my textbook, I got bored and started playing a ton of call of duty and medal of honor. hilariously the next day everything covered on the test, I learned by playing a fun Fps the night before and I aced it,lolool .

I can't say I have any specific stories, but it doesn't really matter since I don't think of playing videogames as a waste of time.

Videogames are for my entertainment, which is not a waste of time. If your own entertainment is a waste of time, then so is reading a book, watching a movie/TV, hanging out with friends.. Oh look... suddenly everything FUN in your life is a waste of time =/. Sorry, I just had to get that off of my chest. xd

ONe person tried to claim that videogames had no literary merit.

The argument was won by my wife.

I learned how to spell certain words from video games that I would have on my spelling tests when I was younger.

Spoke to the guy who basically began laparoscopic surgery in the US (small incision while using camera to operate which is not only safer but has a shorter healing time) talking about how surgeons who are/were gamers are so much better at it. I think he said it's because they're used to looking at one thing and using that input to use their hands elsewhere.
